First Time Using Meguiars Products!

Well this was my first time using meg's products, ever. Lol
I must say I am thoroughly impressed, I will NEVER use another brand again!
I used the Clay Kit and the NXT 2.0 wax. Pic:

I agree. I picked up the new Meguiars clay kit and my paint is so smooth and clean now. I also picked up the Ultimate polish, and new Synthetic Ultimate Wax. I did the whole process and the paint is very reflective. It looks better than new, except from dings and scratches from previous owner. It looks sweet when it rains on it and the water just flies off.

Meguiars is good but I must say I recommend turbowax. I'm a detailer for a living and I tried there stuff out and I absolutely love it. Not saying everyone will and to each his own but I will never buy anything but turbowax. That's just my opinion tho I know it doesn't mean anything but just thought I'd throw it out there

I use a combo of turbo wax, megs, armor all and stoner products. I'm not really brand loyal...if I try something and it works good then I'll add it to my stash.

I used to use Meguiars NXT 2.0, but I use Zaino now...seems to last longer. Not sure if it shines any more or less though. Looks good either way.

Zaino and Klasse are the best and those can be applied over a wax to get even longer lasting shine

I hear Autoglym is pretty good too, but I've never used it.

Meguiars is the bomb. But Turtle Wax etc are good when you don't need that that show and shine look. I've used lots of products, and Meguiars is certainly one of the best. I jut used it on my summer detail.
Too each is own.

Yes and I have been doing this a long time. You ask me as if I thought it was a bad product. Meguiars is good for hand polishing but if I want it done right I use 3M. I use a wheel and 3,000 grit sanding pads if I want to do a top notch job. I dont use 3,000 on the whole car just spots that are really bad. As far as compound I like Turtle Wax. It holds up better with using a REAL polishing wheel. Not those orbitles you get for $40 bucks at Autozone. So yes 09sport I have and still do use Meguiars but only the detail wax. 3M is just a much better product when it counts. I use the perfect it II system. Look it up!!!
