Default you can apply polish by hand but you'll never get the same results as with a machine

also, NXT wax is notorious for not being very durable or long-lasting...Mequair's Professional Yellow Wax lasts a lot longer

Default well if you're paint isn't that bad, then a light polish might be all thats necessary to make it

great...you really have to look at it under strong light to see the swirls (like noon-time sun) or an overhead light...you'll be able to easily tell if the paint is swirled and needs polishing. Of course, the NXT might also fill in a lot of those swirls too...but again, that won't last.
