#2. With what you are posting, as soon as the wax dried, that would be all there was left on the surface, which you would mar the heck out of the paint taking it off ( pure Carnauba is that hard in native sate ). Any carrier that makes it liquid is gone at haze.
- BTW : that is not all that is left over after it drys - read the MSDS on it.
Look at the melting point of 845, only takes some warm water to turn it from a gel like goo, to something that would spray out of a sprayer with the nozzle all the way in.
Don't know where you got that little 0-10 rating listing above, it is full of dog dodo. 845 does not outlast Menz PL.

And for the Third time, to the OP, MPL is the easiest to use, best looking, and one of the longest lasting products that is available, that is not a permanent or semi-perm coating.

I never addressed your post about this topic, due to the fact I agree with it.
Might want to go look at post #12 up the thread.

You think wax will outlast a poly LSP ?
I never said other wise about Menz Power Lock, don't know why you have a post like I am disagreeing with this.

Wash, clay bar, wax with NXT, seal with Liquid Glass, then the Megs Ultimate Quick Wax spray.
Liquid Glass is the extra step.
Ok all you detailers out there let the hammering begin!

no Hammering, but a question.
Is there a reason you do not have the Liquid Glass applied 1st ?
The application instructions read no wax residue on the paint before applying.
- As in naked paint, as most sealants recommend for application.
Hard to qualify with NXT.
The confused marketing fools at Megs call it a wax, but the terms they use make it sound like a poly sealant ??
Just a question on why you do it in that order, where the other way around seems ( read opinion ) as if the LG would last longer if applied direct to polished paint ( and if you do an IPA wipe down or similar ).

Basically there are three Last Step Products (LSP) products...wax, sealants and coatings.
From left to right (above) longevity and durability increase with each type of product.
The days of using wax on your grandpa's Oldsmobile are gone but IMHO waxes look best.
Now if you want something that "lasts" I'd pick a coating. CQuartz is a good looking coating.
Rule of Thumb: waxes last 2-4 weeks, Sealants 2-4 months and a Coating can last over a year.
The important thing is to have a swirl free finish on the paint. Preparation is the key for a good LSP.
