NXT may not last long but it looks great and you can put it on in direct sunlight and it comes off with ease. Thats what I use. I know nothing about detailing though. I love nxt though.

NXT Tech Wax is good. Easy on Easy off, good looking for the little effort required.. Like Jaay said it does not last long.
The only step you could do after clay is a complete wipe down with the quick detailer, then apply the NXT wax.

As far as an intermediate step, use Meguiars show car glaze or Mother's glaze before waxing. It will really make the paint look wet.

Hand waxing can only go so far, IMO the porter cable polisher has far more impact on the job than the wax used.

I agree glaze would be an appropriate step between clay and wax, and make the finish look even better, but glazing takes alota time and elbow grease.

I used the NXT tech wax 2.0 with my orbital buffer and it does a pretty good job; HOWEVER, the wax I always go back to is my Zymol carbon wax. I have not found a wax yet that can compete with it.
What I found with NXT is that it did not last very long. I was waxing the car about every other car wash. where zymol lasts almost all summer.

I've used it and like it. It's very easy to work with and provides great results. See you at boxstoberfest tomorrow!

What a small world...I was just thinking this very same thought just the other day (  )
