NXT Spray Wax, a.k.a Booster Wax is a joke, its just a flash detailer on steroids....and stains whatever it touches, not too mention a hassle getting off....

I still don't understand this product, some people swear by it, but w/ the effort it takes it makes more sense to just throw on another coat of NXT tech wax

Here's a pic of my car last summer when I put it on. I highly recommend it:

I'll be really interested to see if the guys from guru reports test this

Steve actually did a follow up report on NXT after the Guru Reports came out. You can find the results on Roadfly.org.

I read that over at Roadfly also. Quite disappointing actually, since I had already purchased a bottle. No big deal. I like Blackfire better anyways.

I keep my car garaged and I wax every month, so I couldn't tell you about the durability aspect of Blackfire. All I can say is, after I polished my car and put the Blackfire on, It just looked incredible. It showed a lot of depth without the excessive shine typical of synthetic sealants. So far, I've used NXT, #26, Blitz, Gold Class and S100, but I like Blackfire best. It felt the slickest. Except for S100 and NXT, it was also the easiest to apply and buff.
I think you'll like Blackfire a lot better than NXT. Don't get me wrong. NXT is a great product, but I think Blackfire is superior.

I just use Clay Bar Magic from Autozone. It's only $10 as opposed to Mother's Clay Bar at Advance Auto for $16. As for car wash, I use Meguiar's Gold Class. It's reasonably priced, smells great, good lubricity and you can get it just about anywhere! Also, you can save the QD and just use the clay bar while you're washing the car.
