This question is for all Berlina Black owners. After you buff off your wax from the hood, especially NXT tech wax, do you see some light and dark mark areas from where you applied your wax? What I am saying is the dark mark areas would be where you applied your wax with more pressure and lights with where you had
less pressure? I hope you understand my question.

Thanks,
Tim

yes i see the same marks. i don't know if it is from pressure or not,but have found that if i use the nxt speed detailer after the nxt paste wax it removes all unevenness and gives an even better shine

Are you guys shaking the bottle and spreading the NXT very thinly? The first time I used it on my daily (black) I got that streaking and then changed how I was applying the NXT.

Rinsing the applicator frequently and spreading it thinly did the trick.

I brought my car to Meguiar's detail shop and showed them the marks. They try on my car for awhile and concluded that because of the aluminum material. I am not sure if they are right but, obviously, the marks are only on the hood but not anywhere else. They also advised me to use Polymer sealant instead. And if I still want to use NXT Tech wax, use Quick Detailer after.

That aluminum story sounds like They must have smoking some pretty good stuff.

The paint is the same!
