What cheap 3m stuff are you talking about?
The nxt is great stuff. Adds depth and really darkens color. I don't understand what you mean about "almost washed" you do wash your car before you apply wax, right? How would the wax/sealant make your car look dirty again?
Not trying to be aggressive just want to know what you mean!
I, too, use b2b without many issues. Clean first, apply, buff, apply again, buff, hell maybe even apply again. It's no gummi pfledge but it works

Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
3m makes good products. Hell, there are so many opinions its all preference n price is a huge factor. So when I see these clearance deals im not snobby. For those that r thank u n keep leaving the bad products for us weenies

Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
From what I learned on here, NXT is about the same as 3M performance (which is my preferance, toped nowdays with SCG Coral Reef hand blended paste wax)

Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
I was at Advance Auto parts today, they had a shelf that had products that were reduced,then reduced again.
Anyway I bought two 19oz cans of their brand glass cleaner, I used it before, works very well, no streaks, well today I only paid .70 cents per can, should have bought them out but have plenty of glass cleaner.

I got some of that at O'Reilly's last night. My trim is still new, but some day...
But no I was referring to the Turtle stuff (below). I just thought it was funny that their packaging says "We dare you to try it," and it's on clearance, so I guess not many people took them up on their challenge lol.
I bought like 30 bottle of the TWRW when it was buy one get one free.
Works very well

I have heard the 3m stuff is great, but cheap, not so much.
