Thumbs up Eagle one spray on

I've been using NXT or whatever for my last few wax jobs and it never really was as nice as i would have liked. While washing my car with a friend yesterday, she handed me this spray bottle and told me to try it...needless to say i was completely amazed! My car felt/shinned better than ever! has anyone else ever tried this stuff? it's like 5 bucks a bottle, and a bottle will get you a ton of use's...i'm in love!!! i mean, could it be any more easy...spray on wet car, dry car, wax seals in pretty shine...wee!

(yea, i know, i could use a search and probably find post's about it...but deal with it)

I have a hard time believing a spray-on wax would be better than NXT Tech, but I've been surprised before. What was you technique for applying NXT? Did you layer it? I know this is a bit OCD, but I also use Meg's NXT products (though presently contemplating other options) and found best results doing 2 layers of NXT w/ a layer of the Booster Wax in between.

The stuff works great, but be very careful not to get it on the windows; it will smear like h*ll.

"The finish product will be reflective of the effort put in."

If it seems so quick and easy and very little effort is needed, I'm sure the finish will wear off just as quick and easy.

Just my opinion on quick fixes.

I had 3 coats of NXT...didn't look/feel any different from coat one...

Nojooc: its been on there for a week now and still looks good...not to mention i wash my car once a week or so.....so for me, spraying down the car then drying like normal isn't that big of a deal.

Aren't you guys lucky!?

We've got mandatory water restrictions here in Sydney at the moment, so washing my car now consists of Meguiars Quik Detailer only.

Bloody third world country conditions.........

There's even bloody restrictions on watering your garden at the moment.
Check out the restrictions:

BTW, I would LOVE to visit Florida, sounds like my type of weather all year round.
Did I mention that I'm a Aussie Jewish Doctor? j/k

In Melbourne, which is the first city of water restriction, we can use a power assitanted spray to clean our cars. Strong jet they make.

Tell you what it does save water, using about 1/10th of what you normally do!

Morgan, I use that stuff too. Very good product between the hand polishes. I am amazed you clean your car. That makes me like you a lot more

EDIT: nojooc, now we have the wax n dry product. Do you remember the old one from Eagle one that have "wet look" in the bottle. I think it is better to clean it dry.
