Nice! I may go pick up a bottle and give it a "swirl!" Get it...? Give it a "swirl?!" Haa haa haa!





BTW - is it the black bottle with the "pump" action? Trying to find it online. Thx.

I applied this to my parents black van yesterday afternoon. To see if it has dried to a haze slightly rub the towel against a small section. If it has hazed the wax should come off clean and leave no streak mark. What I did was apply wax to the hood and all one side. Once I do that, go back and start taking off the wax starting from the hood. Then did the remainder of the van the same way. I had no problem taking off the wax and it came off fairly easy.
Since the S is small, I'd say apply wax to the whole car then go back and start taking off the wax in the order you started.

The van had a lot of swirls and the nanowax did a fairly good job on hiding them. Last night I applied a layer of Meguiars Hi-Tech wax #26, followed by another layer of nanowax. The swirls are reduced to a minimum now, and the finish I got is the best I have gotten on this van before.

How would you compare the shine to Carnuba?

I'll prolly get rid of my Zaino once I finish it (still got quiet a lot left).

From my eyes, the Eagle One will do better with swirls. i put a layer of NXT over it and it looks and feels pretty darn nice. It's not the "wet" shine of Zaino, but rather a deep shine.

NXT is a liquid wax from what I can tell. You spread it on and take it off much like Zaino.
