I have never been to up on spray wax because I never thought it was worth the time. How does this compare to NXT 2.0 wax? Does it give the same protection as you
would if u were to wax it regular? Obviously, I would still take the time to hand wax my car? When is the correct time to be using this. Was Meguiars thinking about us people that have cold winter snowy months and wanted to help us protect our value during that time of the season?
How do you define the term wax?
How do you define the term paint sealant?
The only technical information on this product so far is listed in the bullet points on the first page of this thread, besides that you'll have to wait till SEMA/NACE is over and everyone returns to work next week.
Good question as a lot of people get confused over these two terms.

Mike,
Is this suppose to replace or work with UQD?
From the bullet points on the first page of this thread,
A breakthrough in spray wax technology Contains Hydrophobic Technology
Awesome shine and water beading
No white residue on trim
Can even be applied in direct sunlight
Our longest lasting protection from a spray wax
It's an option. You can use one or the other, they are different types of products. You could spray this wax onto your car's paint after washing the car, (washing provides you with clean paint), or you could use UQD to wipe the car clean and then use UQW, (wiping the car clean would provide you with clean paint.
Both products contain HT
Another great question!

I can tell that this will be my favourite of the 2009 products!

I own a silver vehicle and a black vehicle owns me. The black one demands attention, washing, detailing, waxing and an occasional dinner out at a nice restaurant. The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

Hi Mike, if we compare this spray wax with others meguiars wax, what the durability like ? Or this is just simply a quick and easy maintainance tool ?
Anyone that's read this forum for any length of time knows I really like Meguiar's Spray Waxes, in fact it was 2 things that led me to write two how-to articles on how to use these products. These two things are,
1) My personal preference for spray-on waxes
2) My understanding that some people don't understand how to properly apply a spray-on wax.
Here are the two articles mentioned above which are both in our How To Articles forum,
It was the second reason for the two above articles and that's because using a spray-on wax and getting good results, (that's 2 things by the way), is very technique oriented when the wax has to dry before you wipe it off and this meant applying a thin thin coating and that's usually where people made their mistakes. In a nutshell, most people would spray the wax onto the car and then try to spread it out and when using a dry cloth to spread the liquid wax out the dry cloth would tend to absorb the wax back off the car and this made it difficult to leave behind a uniform, thin film of wax.
With this new product, you don't have to leave behind a thin film to dry and if fact it works more like a quick detailer instead of one of our traditional spray-on waxes. In other words, like a quick detailer, you mist the wax on, spread it around and the turn you wiping cloth to a dry side and buff off the product to a hard, dry shine and move on to the next section until you gone all the way around the car.
Used correctly, this product is used on paint in EXCELLENT shape, this is not a product for paint that needs to be clayed, then have the swirls removed and then polished to a high gloss. Ultimate Wax, just like Quik Wax and NXT Spray Wax is for use on paint that is already in excellent shape to start with and thus it is a maintenance product that you can apply quickly and produce a deep, wet shine just as fast as you can apply a quick detailer and then wipe it off.
I was given a full size Lab Sample Bottle of Ultimate Quik Wax and it's almost empty from using it on my 1975 Jimmy as it works so well.
Excellent gloss, shine and slickness and it's fast because you use it like a quick detailer in that you don't have to cover the paint with a film that has to dry. This also makes it "Bubba-Proof".
If you already like spray waxes you're going to love this product. If you haven't liked spray-on waxes in the past, maybe give this product a try, it might just surprise you and become you new "Date Night" product of choice.
