I have typically used NXT on my vehicles with great results in terms of protection and shine - maybe not as good as some of the professional detailers on the forum but good nonetheless.

Unfortunately they have replaced the "formula" with NXT 2.0 and I am severely unimpressed. There is absolutely no depth to the finish - just looks like a thin sealant. Any ideas on what types of wax I can use as a replacement - I would like it to have some cleaner or polishing capability as well.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Well, I haven't used them all, so I can't tell you what's best. With that said, I really like Zaino All In One. It has excellent cleaning power and protection. If you get the Z triplets kit you can get the AIO in conjunction with Zaino Clear Seal (wipe on, walk away, no buffing required) sealant, and Z8 (spray sealant for maintenance). AIO will work fine on it's own, but you can get more bang with all three products together.

Thanks, a few questions...

I've heard that Zaino also produces more of a "sealant" finish as oppossed to a "deep carnuba finish" such a swith Meguiars Hi-Tech Yellow Wax, has this been your experience?

Does Zanio provide sufficient protection against the elements (Sun, Bird Droppings, etc.)?

Is the Z8 required with use of the Zaino Clear Seal?

The new formulation of the Zaino sealants is more carnuba like. Deeper and wetter.

Zaino provides excellent protection against the elements.

Z8 is not required for use with ZCS. But I would get it because it does add that bit of extra pop and depth to the paint.
