Looks good! This may be splitting hairs though, but if NXT is a "mild abrasive" then you are not hiding scratches, you are removings mils of paint to make the scratches "disappear"; multiple coats of polish = many mils of paint gone. That said, I wouldn't use an abrasive-type polish on a very regular basis.

 

Your car looks good, but I don't understand why everyone is so excited about this stuff. It appears that your paint is in good shape, any decent wax would make it look good. You mentioned you used zaino, have you used any other high end products? p21s,blackfire,pinnacle,menzerna,etc. Do you use any glaze before hand? Anyways nice car, don't see too many LT1 SS's

 

Zaino is NOT the official polish of the internet, it's just talked about more than any other wax product, due to the results. Our shops used more Meguiar's products than anyone in the USA for 10 years in a row in the 80's and 90's, they make good products, but they are average at best. The key to any show car type finish is the prep work, maybe before you used Zaino you should have used an abrasive paint cleanser type product. If you like Meguiar's NXT you should try Mother's Reflections, I find it to be the best over the counter type product. Companies that sell mass amounts of products like Meguiar's and Mother's to name a few don't real care how long your "wax" lasts, they just know you will be back for more. Most Zaino customers do not want or need abrasives in their "wax", abrasives will leave surface scratches over time, this is fine for people that "wax" their cars every year or two, but not for people that "wax" their cars on a regular basis.

 

Very nice car nice to see an umolested one.

 

I've used NXT on my Camaro and it looked GREAT!

I want to do my GTO soon, I was told here that I should only do NXT occasionally? How often is safe for the clear coat?
