Tech Wax - How To

[meguiarsasia]

@toyota4life94 thanks for the kind comments! be sure to check us out on facebook also at meguiars.asia..... for your ride, simply wash it, clay if you need to.....then apply the wax and UQW afterwards...... usually people apply UQW not right away after the tech wax 2.0..... its best to let it cure first

[djnevous3us]

hi i have carbon fiber hood, trunk,fenders, etc and some spots look like they are getting oxidized what can i do 2 protect them? 

[meguiarsasia]

@djnevous3us if they are oxidizes, use ultimate compound and then follow this with tech wax 2.0. This should help protect them! :D

[djnevous3us]

@meguiarsasia ok cool thx :)

[theguy1224]

This wax is the best i've used that can easily be applied by hand. Thats not a bias statement considering i have the same car thats on the bottle lol. But seriously this wax is good and i've tried them all. Mothers, zymol, zaino etc. This is the best for anyone who applies their wax by hand.

[pierinho]

i drive a metalic sand color h3

what can i use to bring out the shine before applying nxt tech wax?

or will this wax do the job?

[meguiarsasia]

@pierinho this should do the job, but if you want EVEN MORE shine, use our deep crystal polish before this wax.....our gold class wax will give more shine than NXT also, but NXT will last longer.

[kjwade]

@meguiarsasia I have a blazing copper(orange) mazda6, its in great condition but when the winter is over I am going to take a day to take it to the next level. I will wash it with dawn(I don't usually do that), then clay, then use your ultimate compound. As a sealant for my orange car would Gold class liquid wax be better or this Tech wax? Ive heard great things about the tech wax and I think Im leaning toward that one but was wondering what you guys thought as far as which one was better for me

[meguiarsasia]

@kjwade either would work....if you want hydrophobic polymer and long lasting protection with a sharp look.....get the tech wax 2.0....if you want more shine and a wet look with a blend of polymers and carnauba....get the gold class wax.

[kjwade]

@meguiarsasia Ill go for the tech wax for the added "and long lasting protection" part lol

THANKS a bunch for such a quick response!

[4jiggy1]

why u rubing other side LOL

[12danny21]

how thick of a layer of wax should i leave on? when i wax, i use a couple pea sized droplets and i only gently apply it to a small surface to have a thick layer of wax, am i doing it wrong because when i watch your waxing videos, the person rubs quite hard and has a super thin layer of wax on. just wondering if i am doing it wrong. thanks

[meguiarsasia]

@12danny21 you should put about a coin size on the pad and work in a 2ft by 2ft area working it in smoothly. Then use your finger and swipe the surface to feel if its dry to the touch and not greasy feeling. If it feels greasy...wait, otherwise use a clean microfiber and remove....1st by swiping the surface to remove majority of wax 2nd circular motions to create a flawless finish

[l4l2l0l]

@12danny21 You need to leave behind as thin of a coat as possible so that it will fully dry in a minimal amount of time. The idea is for it to be 100% dry so that the wax protection you want to leave behind on the paint is NOT removed or smeared/streak on the surface as you remove the excess. LIGHT pressure especially on soft paint!

[ReverseWhiplash]

What song is this?

Its very soothing!

[xjungfreud]

If you know how to use a machine, its one of the only ways to get swirls out...check out the crew at autogeek or detailing bliss. They are pretty educational

[smczack1]

The stuff is awesome, love it. Megs is the best.

[barthoedemaker]

You can see all the swirls, I hate machine polishing jobs, it's just bad. Just do it by hand, the real pro's understand what I mean;) and it will be so much better, this paint is ruined anyhow...

[Illmatic662]

I used this before on my Infiniti M35 and i LOVE IT! The cars looking freaking amazing after. Now i decided i am buying only Meguiars products. But the selection is so big, i don't know where to start. =)

[hoopfan71]

I just bought some Tech Wax today, because I've heard from several people that it works great. I'm going to be detailing a friend's 4Runner this weekend using all Meg's products, so I'm anxious to see how well this stuff works.

[Illmatic662]

That's great to hear. I recently just bought a meguiars washing glove, and the Meguiars Water absorbing towel. I haven't used them yet but once i am ready i will use both at once.

[gsmetal]

I discovered this product years ago and I'm still amazed on how great my car looks when I'm doing using it. I have a 99 Sebring convertible in "Arrest Me Red" paint and the car looks like brand new when I'm done. People comment all the time they can't believe the car is over 10 years old. Make sure you wash your car well before using is.

[Deke1]

My car is eight years old, never waxed before and I used Meguiars Step one cleaner, followed by turtle wax ice liquid polish and topped it off with Meguiars NXT 2.0 paste wax and I was really impressed with the results... I couldn't believe the depth of the shine...

[paashaasede]

Its a great product but there are fillers in the product, it means that you dont see any swirl marks . But i advice you to polish them out first with a rotary or DA machine .

[meguiarsasia]

Yes that is correct, but each paint is different. Some are single stage and others are not....each paint will react differently. If you are a pro...go for a rotary with M105 and then M205 followed by this tech wax! A quick and easy method for consumer is tech wax to polish and protect and then UQD or UQW to maintain. A DA is always better than by hand if you want to really get into it!

[Liberaltedjo]

how much it is ???? in rupiah, i want to buy for like this, paint bad

[flairnatureboywoo]

the karate kid recommends you wax on wax off with meguiars nkt generations car wax *****

[kirst68]

Polishing technically just restores the oils to your paint. This is particularly important in the old lacquer finishes. Wax protects the paint. Tech Wax polishes and protects. Fishy: for your tree sap: get some Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay. It will remove the sap safely without any scratches.

[fishysilver]

whats the difference between waxing a car and polishing a car??? Also, I have literally hundreds of tiny tree sap particles on my car, i scratched off a couple with my fingernail and it left scratches. whats the safest method for removing the sap. thanks

[JakeHustle2]

use a meguiars surface clay kit! i bet you it will remove that tree sap and other kinds of bonded contaminants on your paint finish without scratching. trust me coz i tried that to my car and no scratches occured..

[turboman808]

Wasn't to happy with the first tech wax but 2.0 is pretty dam good. Just did like 5 cars using it with mothers top coat last month and really like the results

[tmuldown]

Check out the video on this site for new Tech Wax 2.0! The waterbeading is amazing and it makes black cars even blacker and reduces swirls even better than original Tech Wax.

[discovisco]

I just bought the NXT and the clay bar, going to give it a shot this weekend. Thanks for the videos before I go at it!

[KamusBrazil]

Did it work?

[discovisco]

sure did. Highly recommended.

[CDNHottie69]

Best wax on the market! Maybe even ever!

[blown3800riviera]

100% agree

[kirst68]

Tech Wax 2,0 will give you an awesome shine on a pewter metallic car plus even more protection than Tech Wax! Top it off with Ultimate Quik Detailer and you got as good as it gets!

[mexicanpride2006]

hey i love the video and thnx for putting it up..i had a question as to what would be best to bring out a nice shine on a pewter metallic car, i only use meguiars so i thought id ask here, thanx

[meguiarsasia]

The best thing for any vehicle with clear coat would be to follow the five steps to car care. 1. Wash 2. Clean 3. Polish 4.Protect and 5. Maintain

If I were you for a polish, wax and to maintain...I recommend Tech Wax 2.0 and Ultimate Quik Detailer to maintain! This would give ultimate protection, shine and also allow for unparalleled protection against dust, water and other contaminants!

[CSOCSO]

good.. but i have a silver car.. cant see too much difference before and after i applied the wax....

btw i want to try that liquid wax which looks like water.. this wax in this video is like a cream.... so how is that liquid ones is compared to this? this gives u much more protection?

i would love to see this video including this wax and that liquid wax.

[meguiarsasia]

Hi CSOCSO,

Well with a black or dark vehicle, you will always see a bigger and more dramatic effect with any polish or wax since dark colors show everything. This is why we always demo on black vehicles.

This tech wax and the new tech wax 2.0 are both creamy feeling. After you polish and protect with these, you can use our liquid spray, Ultimate Quik Detailer! This is an amazing product!

[meguiarsasia]

If you love this tech wax, you need to try tech wax 2.0!! It now has hydrophobic technology...it will last twice as long and get twice as dark....its amazing!

[xenomorphelv426]

ok maybe because i used almost 1/2 of the bottle.^^ :s

[xenomorphelv426]

good product but i though difficult to wipe the wax when it's dry (waiting 15 min), and some wax traces can remain.

[meguiarsasia]

there is no time limit to when to take the wax off. Simply use your finger to test for when to take it off. Use your finger and swipe the surface, when it is not oily and greasy, you take it off with a clean microfiber. If the wax is hard to take off, it probably means you used too much wax. One bottle can do 18 cars, so not much is needed.

[2000xlt]

come on, someone has to know something

[2000xlt]

anyone else

[2000xlt]

please what is the name of this music. I contaced meguiars but they said they sourced out the video prduction and could not answer the question. OH and Very Nice product

[meguiarsmalaysia]

Hi There, sorry but I cannot be any help either. This video is the official video I was given as well and I do not know the music either! Hope you enjoy the product.

[tmuldown]

Try using Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Detailer over the NXT tech wax: amazing!

[mosley7575]
