NXT Tech Wax shots

Post by Tomson » Sun Aug 14, 2005 4:23 pm

Spent the morning giving the beast a polish.

Nothing more than a wash with Meg's NXT car wash and then a good coat of NXT Tech wax.

Please excuse the quality they were only taken with the camera on my Nokia6680.

Here are the pictures...

there no doubt that the paint finish on RS4s are one of the best around!
And made even better by products that enance the quality

Nice indeed... Cannot seem to get a decent finish on my car at all, despite full on Meguires kit.Looks great for a day or two, then the depth just goes and it looks dull again. Does anyone have a solution for stone chips - Chipsaway man suggested he could do a decent short term job, but after a couple of polishes the white residue will sit in the chips again. So annoying looks like someone has flicked Tip-Ex on the bonnet.. Presume the only option is a respray?

Mate,

I would suggest a mechanical buff/mop at a bodyshop. Get them to touch in the stone chips before they start. A respray seems a little extreme.

That would get the surface nice and smooth and get rid of any '<beep>' that might be on it. I know 'clay bar' does this, but god to get the professionals onto it. Then a good month or so of waxes 2-3 and I reckon she will shine.

Thanks Tom... which leads me to the question - anyone know a good body shop in Oxfordshire area?
