nxt has cleaners in it and it removes any other product under it. klasse will not-
so you can sandwich with klasse but not with nxt.
klasse has great staying power but we have gotten reports that nxt's only weakness is that it sometimes does not seem to last much longer than carnubas.

Klasse AIO will clean off whatever is under it as well. Klasse SG contians no cleaners. NXT gives a good look but there have been knocks on durability which is not something you can knock Klasse on.

Do not put a carnuba between AIO and SG as it will probably screw with the bonding. Many people top AIO with something besides SG. Personally I do two coats of SG over AIO (24 hours between coats of SG) and then top with Carnuba (S100). It actually looks fine with just the Klasse products but the S100 takes about 10 minutes to do on the S2000 or my Porsche and gives it just a little bit better look IMHO. My trucks just get the Klasse twins without a carnuba topper ans they take longer to do and hell they are just trucks that are lucky if they get washed.
