Using NXT on top of OP??

[TN9thSi]

This morning I have been polishing my car with Optimum Polish. This is mt first experience with OP and I am very impressed. I have enough working time to completely remove any swirls. I don't have to re-load the pad, or clean up the gunk every few minutes. All this with no dust! Excellent product. Anyway, I'm having a hard time deciding what to use after OP. I have NXT, Wolfgang, Werkstatt AJ/CJ, OCW, and EX-P. I really want to use a sealant as the dust around here is terrible. Carnaubas attract too much dust for my car which lives outdoors 24/7. The paint is a medium metallic blue (Mazda's Lapis Blue Metallic for those who know the color) What would be the best? Can I use NXT after OP??



I want the metallic in the paint to really pop. Here's a past pic of my hood in the sun. Can't remember what I used on it, though.

U sure can use NXT on top of the optimum polish. NXt looks really good in blue.

I've never used OP, but you should be ok with any of the products you mentioned. Go with the AJ.

On my Windsor Blue Passat I use WG Sealant and follow with layers of FMJ. But I think NXT would look sick on a brighter blue than mine like yours.

I would go with the NXT personally. I find that Wolfgang attracts a lot of dust, but it looks great.

WG IS A DUST MAGNET I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!! I just sealed car and it looks like dust hippo only two days later. yet when clean, WG is meeeeeeeen.

Well, the car is done! I decided on OP/AIO/NXT. Looks really nice. I had forgotten how awesome NXT was on my car. Now, what QD would be best to maintain it? I used Sonus Acrylic Spritz to get all the smudges and dust off. Do NXT and OCW get along with each other?? I was thinking of using OCW as a booster. I'll try to have some pics tomorrow, no daylight left now

AJ will be the most durable but on metallic blue, it is a toss-up between AJ and NXT when it comes to appearance.
