Hi George,

Did you do the swipe test to see whether the NXT is ready to be wiped off? I asked this because the last few times I used it, ESPECIALLY WHEN LAYERING, it took hours to dry and caused quite a bit of streaking too. The only time I didn't get any streaking is when I wipe the surface down with IPA/Prepsol, i.e. clean the surface down.

You can try the QD wipe down but it didn't work for me. I needed to re-apply using a little more pressure than needed to clean the surface a little and lay down another coat...even then it didn't work 100%.

Regards.

hi,

i noticed that it took quite long to dry coz i did it around 5pm in the basement carpark. the finger test had streaks marks even after 45mins.
also it could be my fault coz no surface prep done prior to applying. will get a clay bar soon.
anyway got the car washed the next day and all the marks are gone.

Was the basement cool and damp?

anyone with reviews on AJT?

i am finishing my DG105 already, considering to try and rotate with the AJT. however i still haf a quite some bit of DG501

can AJT go on top of my DG501? Using DG 501 to prep the paint. Any bonding issues? i dont intend to get the Prime as i want to make use of DG 501... and i also have a new AG SRP... SRP or 501..which would be better going as a base for AJT?

Hi,

I only have AJ and it works well for me. Very good looks on lights colors especially silver, white and gold.
AJT should be able to top DG501 and AG SRP with no issues. You need to use very little of the product and it applies so easily that you don't have to buff off residues, almost like a Wax-On-Walk-Away (WOWA) type of product.

Normally most LSP can be layered on polishes like DG501 and AG SRP...... smile_wink.gif

Washing a car should be an artform, not a chore.
