I've read all the replys to your question and it seems that you got every answer except the one that you were looking for. Meg's NXT Tech Wax is a polymer sealant.
I used NXT Tech Wax (liquid) on a 1986 Buick Le Sabre (non-metallic beige) that hadn't been touched with anything in about two years except for an occassional automatic car wash (this car was completely bare of any type of cleaner, polish or wax) and I applied just one coat, let it dry for an hour, and wiped it off with a MF towel. I've never seen any product do so many things to improve the looks of a car than this product did either in sunlight or at night under street lights when the paint actually seemed to sparkle. It acts like a cleaner, glaze, sealant and carnauba topper all in one. How they managed to come up with this one is beyond me. I'm definitately not a chemist.
It seems to be extremely durable, crystal clear, very deep wet gloss and the only thing that seems to be lacking is that the sparkle seems to disappear in about 2 to 3 months but since most people apply a quick detailer to spruce up the gloss on the finish to keep it looking 'just detailed', I can't really find any problem with NXT Tech Wax at all. The only thing that I noticed is that it doesn't remove or fill scratches and swirl marks hardly at all like it's claimed to do so I would suggest using a swirl remover prior to applying the NXT.
From what I've read on this forum and others, the use of the spray wax for a booster is kind of useless and that it's almost as easy to apply another coat of NXT wax instead since it's an easy on and off.
I did a test on this car (all by hand) of many of the best waxes and sealants available on different panels of the car, including the Klasse twins, Liquid Glass cleaner and polish, UPP, AM EZ wax, AM Seal It (this one came the closest in high gloss), Natty's, Meg's No. 26 and S100 (all of the products were applied after a hand application and wipe off of Meg's No. 9) and then asked my wife to tell me which part of the car looked the best (without telling her which panels I had just applied new products to) and she said the roof looked much better than the rest of the car. What she didn't know is that the roof is the only panel that I hadn't touched except for the NXT wax that I had applied about two months before by hand with a foam applicator!
There is nothing scientific about this - just trying different products before Springtime to find out what I want to use on customer's cars when the weather gets warm enough.
BTW, I don't work for Mequiar's....I'm just a very surprised professional detailer!
PS: Even after 3 days to allow for the newly applied waxes and sealants to 'outgas' and cure, my wife and I still agree that the NXT looks the best by far. My hat is off to Meguiar's on this one.
