+ 1 on the NXT Tech Was 2.0, I used it on my e-glide and the results were superb.

Also – dish soap (such as Dawn) is recommended before applying a new wax as a means of stripping off any old wax. Once you have waxed it, then you should use a traditional car/bike soap.

Never tried NXT Tech. I used to manage a large auto parts store and I tried most of the waxes that we sold (which were all the major brands). In my opinion the best stuff on the market is Liquid Glass. I use it on my bike and both my vehicles.

For a one step application, over the counter product, Meguiar's NXT Tech Wax 2.0 does a nice job. Especially on darker colors. Helps hide those pesky swirl marks.

I've been hooked on Meguiars for a while now. I haven't tried the tech wax stuff yet, but I don't know if it will beat their Gold Class.
Fyi, between washes, use the quick detailer spray - very good for maintaining the shine and it doesn't strip the wax.

Red face Tec wax

Tec wax does a great job of removing swirls and scratches, but it don't last long enough for my taste. I moved on to the glare polish.

I use the dish soap before waxing, when I just wash the bike, I use some wash and wax crap.

I've been using the NXT 2.0 for about a year since it first came out, I usually do 2-3 coats right on top of each other............great shine and hides any swirl marks.

Unfortunatley it isnt removing the swirls or scratches it is only filling them if anything. In order to remove swirls or scratches you would need to use an abrasive polish of some type. I prefer the Poorboys products for polishing and then a sealant such as Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint sealant followed by Wolfgang Fuzion or Pinnacle Souveran wax. One should not use Dawn as a wash soap, It has extreme drying effects on rubber lines, wire, etc.

I think some people use it to intentionally strip the wax before they wax to start with a fresh coat.
