man, and I thought I was the only one. This stuff did wonders for my 04 WRX and it even makes my friends 93 RX-7 look new. But on the EVO its horrible. I'm getting swirl marks, and im getting wax deposits after a hard rain that come back up on my car. I was just reading an advertisement for p21s in turbo mag and its supposed to be god.www.p21s.com
has anyone here heard of this or know anything about it? for those of you that have switced to zaino how do you like it?

Not true for me. I've tried Zaino, Zymol (old and new), P21S and Meguiars Gold CLass and NXT (among others). So far for my eye on a black car there is very little difference. I don't think Zaino is worth the price or effort it take to use. NXT worked great and went on and off easy for me. Looks great on black. This is my first use of NXT and I did wash and clay bar it first so we'll see what the long term results are.

They've got a forum there where some major detailing nerds hang out. They'll tell you what you need to know about detailing.
As for Klasse I did my whole car (exterior) in about an hour. This includes washing, drying, Klasse AIO, and Klasse sealant. Didn't wax the wheels though. Unless there is a product that is leaps and bounds better in finish or takes me 15 minutes to do my entire car I'm sticking with Klasse.

I just bought a can of NXT paste yesterday and it removed 90% of my swirls after the first coat. I was satisfied enough not to add a 2nd layer. I tried it as a last effort before pulling out the rotary and cutting in to it. I hate using buffers on black cars because alot of times it will make things worse. I've had a lot better luck with paste than with liquid wax.

if your paint is in good shape, almost any wax will make it shine.. but that nxt stuff sucks on paint like mine thats been through the salt and snow.. it does wipe off nice though..

i used NXT and couldnt be happier...i swapped over from Mothers which i wasnt very happy with at all...When i bought the NXT i bought some cotton applicator pads and cotton cloths to apply and remove the wax...i would never use the rough sponge they supply in the package...only 100% cotton touches my car...
^^ about 2 hours after i waxed it
