NXT does contain cleaners, but they are mild, much more mild than those in #20, Poymer sealant. The layering is at the chemical level.

Mike Phillips at Meguiars, who helped develop the product, told me it is 'layerable'.

Meguiar's carnuba products cannot be layered.

They know that people claim they get better results when layering, but their chemist, Dr. Penntington, says the apparent difference is not due to layering, but to getting a better coverage by laying down a second coat.

Again, with Meguiar's products, there is no such thing as layering, as the layering can't be measured.

There is no measurable film build.
