I use Meguiar's NXT on my 98 artic white and I think it does a good job.

Went to Wal-Mart tonite they had NXT for $13.00 will let you know how it does, do you use a buffer

Me too...LiquidGlass has NO waxes, abrasives, silicones etc ...NXT is mildly abrasive and has wax....just like all waxes the uv craps it out in 30 days...you can build up as many coats as you want with LiquidGlass ..the more coats the more protection, and it goes on and off really easy...It has been around for over 25 years.....

:argue Less filling....tastes great

Ladies and gentelman, In this corner we have the ZAINO ZOMBIES and in this corner is the NXT NUTS.
Who will win? Only the Liquid Glass GOOFS have a clue.

I used the Meguiar's NXT on my wife's Mustang convertible. It looks fantastic! The NXT is very easy to apply and remove.
I also used it on my son in laws Pewter 98 Corvette convertible, it reall brought the metalic to life.

Can the NXT be used on laquer paint or only B/C?

I have used the NXT on my black laquer 69 Plymouth Road Runner. The depth of the shine is fantastic.

I'm with Roadapple on this one. Opinions on the best waxes, polishes, etc., to use are like differentials: everyone has one.

It seems agreement on this issue will never be achieved. T's99, my advice would be to simply experiment and find something YOU like. In the end, it's your Vette, and you should be happy with it. I might also suggest you take a look at some of DetailingDude's Comments in the Auto Detailing and Car Care forums.

Thanks guys, I think ?
white just does not shine like my black vette did,however, it sure looks good, don't see that many C5's

I just bought a 04 Arctic White and I already put 5 coats of Zaino and the car looks great! I ahve not tried NXT, but I can tell you that the Zaino works wonders. The car has a great shien and is smoother Zaino is smoother than anything I have ever used before. The stuff is addictive. The more you use the better the car looks.

amen

good to hear from a Artic White owner

I have an Arctic White 2004 convertible with Torch Red guts and black top. I ordered the car on July 19, 2003. It was built Nov. 10, 2003, delivered to Everett Chevrolet, Hickory, NC on Nov. 13, 2003 in an enclosed transporter with a full load of Cadillac XLRs!! MSRP was $57,240. It now has 2619 miles. I have used two coats of Zaino (Z2 & Z5) and two coats of Mothers carnauba wax and I think it looks great. This car has very little orange peel. :cool

DON'T FORGET THE CORVETTE WAVE!!
