Another Wax Thread

[Ross]

Now for something totally different from the usual Zaino/Zymol/Meguire's etc. debate.

This weekend I was renewing the Rain X on both of our cars windshields at home. I'm always amazed at how this stuff makes rain run right off your windshield without even using your wipers. Then I saw that Rain X makes a car wax. So I was wondering, if they are so good at making water run off of windshields, could they have the same great technology in their wax as well?

Has anyone tried Rain X car wax?

I haven't tried it yet, Ross but I intend too- might be marketing hype but the window stuff is great.

PS: Note to users of Rain-X window treatment DO NOT get it on your paint, it causes damage. I of course learned this lesson prepping Logan's $8000 paint-jobbed car at Autorama (Thank God he caught it in time).

PPS: Very generous of you with the rodeo tickets. My girls (13 & 15) are HUGE Lachey/Simpson fans but they're on spring break this week instead of next. Those are worth big bucks to the pre-driver's license segment of the population....:up:

Has anyone tried Rain X car wax?Haven't tryed it yet, But I did try The new Meguires NXT Generation Car wash that just came out. My car came out great. Tommarrow I'm useing the NXT Generation Teck Wax that just came out also, I'm sure it will be very good also.

Heeeyyyyyyy I tried that NXT Tech wax and it is the ****znik! Shines shines shines. Shines so much the car looks wet. I'm sure that Zaino is great stuff too but after using this NXT I am sold. The Rain X wax is interesting but I have alot of NXT left.

Careful with the RainX windshield washer fluid too. People have complained about it staining paint.

That's a good point. Since I like the Rain X windshield treatment so much, I was thinking about using their washer fluid. Maybe I better stick with regular washer fluid to be safe.

Gage and I picked up a bottle of that new NXT generation on the way home tonight. $14 / 18oz. , not too bad. Looks good, smells good, has great promises.

They say to do a panel and compare it against your favorite wax. I just did the Zaino #5 over the weekend. I'll panel compare tomorrow....er...it's gonna snow tomorrow...friday then...maybe...oh hell, I hate this time of year!

I've been looking around...still can't find any stores that carry it.:confused:

[Cobra25]

I've been looking around...still can't find any stores that carry it.:confused: Meguires 1-800-545-3321 for order's. NXT Generation Tech Wax- product # G12718- $14.99 NXT Generation Wash-Product # G12664- $5.99. Now if you order the Wash with the wax the shipping is free so you save 5.95 in shipping cost's for a limited time only. What it comes down to is free car wash ,how could you go wrong? And it works good too. Now I didn't test it against Zaino, but I've always used Meguires Gold class and the NXT Gen. blow's it away. And it give me a deep luster and what a super shine . Let me know how you like it.
