silver? hmm...most people go with Zaino or Poorboy's EX-P or Klasse SG. It's not just about the wax though, you still need a claybar, swirl remover, and a good polish.

I just did my car tonight with the NXT and it came out great! And the I put a nice coat of super glaze(wax shop) on top of that! I have never used a clay bar on my car....how long does it take and is it hard?

I will make this very simple for you 1. Wash vehicle 2. Clay surface (I prefer Clay Magic sold at AutoZone) 3. Use Meguiar's Product Color X (sold at Walmart) 4. Finish up with Meguiar's NXT (work's really well on Metalic's like your's). This procedure will yield excellent result's and can be achieved by hand or orbital polisher. Product's can be purchased locally and they are cheap. There are other procedures I can recommend for you but I do not want to get very technical with you. I use to work for Meguiar's in Irvine,CA, for about 3 year's and I am a part time auto detailer. Good Luck..and nice car ...Almost forgot get some some Micro Fiber Cloths at Costco, or Sams Club they will make you life easier at removing product's..

Yea too be honest just find a wax company that makes all the stuff "claybar,wash,wax,ect" ,and stick with them. Me its zaino and clearkote,ive tryed many i have a black car and nothing gets it as wet as those two, but my buddy with a silver 03 uses poorboys check them out see what u think.
