I walked into Canadian Tire hoping to pick up a bottle of Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax; but they didn't carry the liquid version, only sold the paste. Instead I picked up a bottle of Turtle ICE Premium Liquid Wax. I had heard lots of rave reviews about it from other online forums, but was a little skeptical. I went with it anyway, because it was $20, vs the $30 Meguiar's NXT.

I applied it after I washed and dried my car at the hand wand car wash. I couldn't believe how great it worked! It even works on the trim and windows! It doesn't leave a streak or anything, just goes on clear. Buff it lightly after the application to even it out, and that's it. Doesn't take long to do the whole car, and the shine looks like I had it professionally detailed.

I've found my new favourite car wax

It is indeed very good - I've got some and also the Ice detailer.

Guys

Much agreed, just did my 645 with it and it applies very easy and fairly easy to buff out. The car looks awesome!

Thanks for the tip

You really need to try the polish. The detail spray is good but it works better over the Ice polish (which is easier to apply and remove than the NXT you mentioned in your post)
