  • First attempt at detailing

    I spent about 8 hours on the weekend detailing my new Miata. After washing it with NXT carwash, I clayed it, cleaned it (DC1), polished it (DC2), and then waxed it (NXTx2). I used NXT protectant for the vinyl top. I used the PC polisher for the larger surfaces although I did wax by hand. The surface is amazing -- smooth as glass. I put a cloth on the hood for a second and it just slid right off! I took some pics..

            Very nice

            Your second photo shows the metallic POP that NXT does on silver.
            Looks good keep up the good work and it will look like that for a long-long time.
