Well, let me clarify a bit. None of those waxes are true polymer sealants, meaning they do not chemically bond to your paint surface. They're more like synthetic waxes, giving you more durability than your traditional car wax. I didn't mean to equate them with a true polymer sealant like Zaino and I apologize for any confusion.

I've tried all three and have the Eagle One and NXT products in my inventory. I like the look of NXT, especially on solid colors like black and red. IMO, NXT tends to darken paint which I've found masks metallic paint a bit but on non-metallics its really nice. Here's a pic of a 9-3 Viggen I detailed last week which I topped with NXT.

The Mothers and Eagle One don't alter the looks but they're really easy to use and have decent durability (6+ weeks). All three need well polished paint to look their best as neither have much cleaning/polishing ability.

Of the three I like NXT the best but only because I have the most experience with it and only on solid color paint. I'd give Mothers Reflections the silver and Nanowax the bronze. But if you throw price into the equation, Nanowax with their rebate offer kills the other two. Plus it comes with a microfiber towel and a foam applicator which is beneficial to those who have not used microfiber to remove wax.

I hope I didn't overcomplicate a simple question......
