Thought i would share with you all my first attempt with Meguire`s products. I`ve just done our Toyota Avensis.
The car wasn`t in that bad a state but had a few light scratches and marks, so i thought i would give it DC#1, DC#2 followed by the Nxt Tech Wax.

Here are a couple of befor photos:-

I washed the car and then gave it a go over with the DC#1 then followed it up with the DC#2 put on with a rotory buffer.I then gave the car a couple of coats of Nxt Tech Wax applied by hand and buffed off with the rotory.

Not the best of photos but you get the idea.
Next i have my boat to do. I`ve got hold of the Meguiar`s 3 step boat kit to remove some bad oxidation on the hull but i`ll have to wait till i get it lifted out the water, maybe next month. I`ll post some pics when i do it.

That is a big difference. I just got the NXT and can not wait till I can use it. Your car looks brand new now. Great job!:xyxthumbs

Thanks,
I`m new to this detailing thing but i`m pleased with how it turned out. The Nxt wax is the best i`ve used and it has rained a couple of times since i took the photos and the car dried out great, no water marks left.I never used a rotory polisher befor so i just took it nice and slow and kept it on a slow speed.
Can`t wait to make a start on the boat.
