I used Meguiar's NXT, and then the Meguiar's Detailing Spray, literally right after, just to help clean up the little waxy balls that come off when you remove the wax. I used some foam crap on the tires... took me 2 hours. I washed it, shammied it, waxed it, foamed the tires, cleaned the rims with a wipe, and detail sprayed it... and took pictures.

My only advice is to buy some Meguiar's Tire Gel. It smells like grape Kool-Aid, so you know it's good stuff.
The car looks great though. |

just go to like autozone, and you will see it in red bottles, i believe its the deep crystal three step system, they have numbers right on the corner of the bottle sayin which step it is, i use this every couple months with waxing in between and the car just glows, i couldnt imagine how awesome it would llook on ur color.

lol, I've had the car a week... mods will come shortly. I want to finish up most of my appearance stuff right away, and I suppose that would fall into that category.

The NXT was the best wax I used on my Black GT vert, and you know black shines good.
