NXT Tech wash COLOR change???

I was wondering around the 24 hour Walmart at 130am, just bored and came across the NXT tech wash I use. The odd thing was there was the kind I had used, a purple/brownish murky mixture and now another jug right next to it...with a dark blue clear mixture!

What was really odd was they seem to smell the same, they were in the identical jug, same UPC, same product number and label on jug...just different colored fluid.

What is up?

Evidence #1: (I'll take a picture in an hour and post but it is a purple/tan/brown color)


Evidence #2:

Found your answer: http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums...&threadid=3429 . Just a cosmetic change; nothing more.

I read through the Megiuars forums that Mark D found...apparently there was a color change but the product remains the same...personally I thought the purple/murky tanbrown whatever you call it color was kind of cool...blue? it looks boring like blue coral...but atleast we know it works the same smells good too

Speaking about Blue Coral, I bought that huge jug of their blue soap at Wal-Mart, merely because of cost, but I'm wondering how it compares to the NXT soap, which I've never used (blue or purple or otherwise :D ). Has anyone had the chance to compare these different car soaps?

NXT has an anti-static formula which is designed to help prevent dust from attaching to the vehicle and a water softening compounds to reduce waterspots

plus it smells damn good

Hm, must try that stuff then. The Blue Coral gunk says it's "concentrated", but it still takes 5-6 capfuls before it suds up in the bucket. Not sure what helpful ingredients it has either compared to the NXT wash.
