The whole process takes you a couple of hours, but the results are pretty impressive, and the Klasse keeps the shine for many months..
I usually apply several coats of P21S, since it has no long term lasting abilities.
There are plenty of quality products out there.....but preparation like most/all said is the key to a beautiful shine.....
Some pics from a couple years ago after my regiment was complete.
Good luck

LOL . . . I follow the exact same routine every May. However, after regular washings, I will apply additional coats of the High Gloss Sealant Glaze every once in awhile prior to the P21s wax.

i have a black car, and no matter how many times i try to buff the NXT wax off, the still see smears of oily residue on the car.
try the mothers products.

i don't think so... with NXT it looks ok at night, but in the direct sunlight, its pretty aweful.. Yes its shines but there are streaks all over the car.
when i used mothers, omgfgoodness. the difference was night and day. my car had a deep glossy wet shine. my coworkers even noticed the difference. like damn, ur car is clean? what do you use? they were like, i use to detail car and black shows everything, but whatever you use now, its working for you.
b4, i use nxt never had that compliment b4.

If your using the carnuba wax from mother's then I have no doubt you will get a deeper and wetter looking shine, in fact carnuba waxes are known to provide a wetter looking and shinnier look then synthetic polymer waxes.
However you have trade offs of a very nice shine that will last 3-4 weeks (especially in canadian weather) compared to a not so wet shine (from synthetic waxes) that will last 3-5 months.
As for your streaking issue, I've never that that problem with NXT liquid wax. Maybe it was an expired or defective product.
