Time taken: 4 hours.Products used: Meguiar's Quik Clay System, ColourX, NXT Tech WaxI would like to extend a big THANK YOU to Mr Johan Wong of HyperCoat aka NXT for kindly giving me a few samples of NXT Tech Wax to try out!It was a cloudy day so I had to use the camera's flash to pick out the swirls. The white specks are actually glitter in the paint. The car is sprayed diamond blackClick on the pics for the larger version. ZTH auto-resize makes the pic look blurry.Before treatment:[ATTACH=full]626526[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]626527[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]626528[/ATTACH]Swirls, swirls and more swirls!After washing the car at a snow wash service, I clayed the car. I can really feel the paint getting smoother after rubbing the clay over the surface and lubricating it with the Quik Detailer. After claying, I went on with the ColourX. [ATTACH=full]626529[/ATTACH]Left side is untreated. As you can see, the colour on the right is richer and darker. After treatment:[ATTACH=full]626530[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]626531[/ATTACH]Swirls are less visible after polishing. But, some major scratches were still visible under a strong light. However, the large scratch on the trunk was almost eliminated. Before this, it was really visible but now, if you don't purposely look for it, you can't find it. I was really impressed at this. Unfortunately I didn't have time to take some proper pictures.[ATTACH=full]626532[/ATTACH]Before[ATTACH=full]626533[/ATTACH]AfterFinal results:[ATTACH=full]626534[/ATTACH]"Stop looking at the other car and get back to work!"[ATTACH=full]626535[/ATTACH]Good reflection all round[ATTACH=full]626536[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]626537[/ATTACH]The hood looks the best. I'm really impressed with ColourX and NXT Tech Wax because they really do show a difference on the paint surface. The result is not stunning but it's certainly impressive. Maybe my technique is wrong. What's next? Maybe a rotary buffer to polish out the remaining swirls. So what do you guys think?</blockquote>
