    Wow, the first two pics are great - that stuff is very reflective! Is it a carnuba or synthetic wax?

    Here is what the bottle looks like(well actually it looks purple in real life but I guess the flash changed the color somehow.) It was $15 from AutoZone.
    And I thought only Zaino was capable of these things!

    NXT is a decent product, but remember kids, there are no miracle products. If you want your paint to look great, you need to prep it properly first. There are no shortcuts.

    Oh, and aren't you the guy that posted pics of your girlfriend a while back. More of those please, I've seen pictures of houses before. :)

    That Caddy looks smooooth. Looks great.

    Another great product to try is Butter Wax by Carbrite.

    Not anymore. I dont feel the need to, I'd rahter have a bike but the insurance is so damn much for me since I'm high risk and all. I have more fun in my moms CTS really than I do in the vette anyways. Im more of a Sedan type of guy because I'm always the one who wants to drive anytime my friends and I go somewhere. Audi RS6 is one of my favorite cars.

    Damnnnn. That looks mean. Black is one of the best colors for a Ferrari I think. Except for a 355. My heart belongs to Rosso Fiorano for a 355

    Chris, what, no driving gloves...? :D Dude, i hate to say it - i mean the wax looks like it did a great job and all, but the leaves from the tree reflected in the windshield in the first picture put all the other pictures to shame...

    Depending on the condition of the paint I would clean the paint of anything that may be bonded to it using claybar or liquid cleaner and follow with a polish to feed the paint, that is what provides the shine. Wax then protects the freshly rejuvinated paint.

    I usually clean and polish once a year and wax every few months. My cars don't look their best all the time however.

    Ha! Of course. Don't you?

    No I was jsut really sweaty from waxing the car. It was like 90 or something outside and even hotter in my garage probally. I had to make sure not to lean over hte car so I would not drip sweat all over it.

    But it would be much more interesting if you applied that wax to your girlfriend, and *then* posted the pics... :)
