nxt tech wax 2.0 or m1611?

[RS-Kwong]

what to buy? that is the question....

torn between the two... if you were me, what would you guys buy?

i am having my first customer on saturday, and i only have DC steps 123...
its a Civic 00' metalic black... i know its has a soft paint so i think DC will do the work...
but for the wax i want it to really shine and last...

what do you guys think?
nxt or m16?

thanks...

If you can find M16 then get that, otherwise NXT 2.0 will do just fine.

Re: nxt tech wax 2.0 or m1611?

ok.. we have alot of this here in Switzerland... but really expensive... 62.00 swiss franks...

just for your info, so you guys can see how expensive it is here a full auto detail interior,engine and paint cost like 700Chf around 650USD... thats by a "Pro detailer"
i will be asking just 500 to start with as a hobby...

anyway thanks Nick...

Re: nxt tech wax 2.0 or m1611?

If M16 is so expensive, then I would recommend that you go with the less expensive (so I presume) NXT. I suspect that most folks will prefer the clarity and reflectivity of NXT, and it's easier to apply and remove than #16, so everyone says.

Re: nxt tech wax 2.0 or m1611?

I use and love M16, but NXT 2.0 is a great wax as well. You can't go wrong with either in my own humble opinion.....

Awwww heck, get them both

Like Al said, NXT is very easy to use. M16 if applied thin works quite well, but very hard to remove of applied to thick!

Re: nxt tech wax 2.0 or m1611?

i guess i will have to buy both... this customer i have on saturday is a little special so i want the best for her...
i will use nxt for the not so special once...

which will last longer nxt or m16? the car is a daily driver...

i guess i will have to buy both...

One can't have too many waxes ... at least so I keep telling myself!

I havent gotten any 16 yet but NXT is really good! You could always do a spot of both on the hood of the car your doin to see which you like the look of better

i will try that, thanks.. and maybe show then ask her which wax she likes... i just pray that i dont mess her car up... its pretty bad...

which do you guys think will last longer?
does megs usa dont sell m16 anymore?
if not, i think they ship everything here in europe...

Re: nxt tech wax 2.0 or m1611?

Im not sure which would last longer since I havent had any experience with m16 but have been told that it is very durable! You can even go to extremes and do a layer of NXT and top it with M16 Dont be worried about messing up if its as bad as you make it sound you probably cant make it any worse

and no they dont sell here anymore, I would have to get M16 from canada if I wanted any They also dont sell the gold class brushes and I think you can still get them?

Re: nxt tech wax 2.0 or m1611?

I wouldn't go more than 3 months on a wax, I do a major waxing (maybe not full blast detail) on our cars every 3 months. I live in a rural area so dust, dirt, smoke from fires in summer kills my cleanliness.

I do clay when I wax and use UQD between waxing and now have bought and love UQW! Our Neon and Yukon is just beautiful after a washing and UQW, much less a full on detail!

the weather here is not so friendly... gray skies and rain comes every other week... we are very lucky if we get a whole week of sun...
i wash and vacum my car every saturday and use UQD... interior when it needs to be cleaned... i wish UQW would come here soon..

Re: nxt tech wax 2.0 or m1611?

I hear ya, my former employers are from Switzerland and they talk about the weather and how beautiful the country is.

I should probably go less than 3 months on a wax, but that's when I do it..... With UQD/UQW thrown in their, it works for me.

As far as waxes go, I switch between NXT 2.0, M16, M26 and M21(not as much).

You can't go wrong with any of them in my opinion. I have and still use Gold Class, it looks great on our Yukon.
