Did you photograph the IS right after you finished waxing it? If so try taking some additional photos tomorrow. NXT, like most sealants look even better after they cure (12 hours).

Looks very nice. I especially liked the first and the second last reflection shots.

The pics were taken one hour after the job was completed. I will take more pics tomorrow and post them here.

Wait till you see the beading compared to the old NXT. Mine beaded with minimal dew compared to NXT 1.0 which looked like my hood was steaming

Great looking car!! Love the shot reflecting off the car.

That lineup of products is very similar to mine!

That other product is a paint cleaner.

Yes, after 12 hours I see a more intensive reflection in the paint.
