Yes and its fantastic ! Use NXT detailer spray for those between wash freshen ups too! Gold class 3 stage polish brilliant as well and use the wet towel water magnet I think its called all the cloths and aplicators work well very glad I found maguires !

all there stuff seems really good. the water magnet drying towel as recommended above is well worth it, makes drying the car effortless, i just bought the carnauba wax and highgloss for the tyres and both have excellent results.
looks value for money as well as theres barely any gone from the bottles

Yep I can only agree.
Just claened the car for the first time and the wax from M was fantastic and easy to use. I found that it did not mess up the surrounding plastic areas, it just rubbed off!

Felt abit like the karate kid though, wax on wax off wax on wax off.

Used Megs NXt shampoo and wax on Saturday for the first time - very good results. Also the water magnet was very good compared to a chamois.

Good time to stock up as well with the 3 for 2 offer at halfords.

Only problem is the building site next to our house blowing clouds of dust onto our cars - there filthy again!

NTX is better for a dark coloured car as it gives a wet look gloss shine.
Gold Class for a solid/lighter colours to give a classic finish, as the lighter colours don't take on the wet look that well.

Either way they will both produce a great finish.

I'm not joking.

I needed some wash/wax urgently and only Tesco's was open locally.

I bought their bog standard Wash 'n' Wax.

Came up a treat.

hoping someone can help, is Meguiars Nxt Generation Spray Wax the same as Meguiars Nxt Generation Tech Wax? might be a stupid question but on the description of each product it says they do different things, but I thought they are the same but on is spray and the other you apply with a pad.

Can I put in a plug for the AutoGlym water blade? It removes excess water in seconds so that a quick chamois is all you need.

Halfords are doing 3 for 2 again it finished for about a week but it's on again

I used to use autoglym but I've got some megs gold class I've not used the wax yet but I'm hoping for a better finish the autoglym goes a bit powdery and I realised I'd got iton the trim a bit it was a bugger to get off

Sorry but Autoglym Hydra Flexi Blade made my Water Magnet redundant as it gets rid of so much more water.

Yes it is, same compsition just a different consistency. I prefer the liquid in the bottle but that personal preference.
