I do a section of the hood or section of the doors at a time. It seems on the hood is where I've noticed the film in smaal areas. It is almost like if you get Armor All on the paint. . I spray the NXT on a wax cloth and not on the car that way it doesn't overspray down into the gaps of the hood etc. I do a small area at a time and once it hazes over it wipes off easily. I will have to give the Ice a try, and leave the Meguirs for my pick-up.
