Meguiar's Products

[Williebeemin]

Hey guys I just got hooked up with the Meguiars rep and I'm thinking of going 100% meguiars for my business... I have used them before but not alot of the professional line... My question is: What should I load up with? I am goin to spend about $500 with them on the first purchase.. If you guys were going to spend that, what would be your choice of products from them? (polishes, wax, soap, degreasers, dressings,??????)

Thanks in advance,
Will

Oh boy... few things off the top of the head

Their APC, Hyper Dressing if you can get it, #7 Show Car Glaze, #26 Hi Tech Yellow, if you are wetsanding for scratches I have found their Unigrit to be pretty good, polishes and that I am not sure? Are you going with rotary or PC?

I got a Megs "Surface Care Product Guide" in my hands right now from the local paint and body shop, and I never knew the Mirror Glaze line had this many products.

I love their All season dressing for exterior plastics. Holds up good in the rain but runs alittle.

Hyper Dressing is great for under the hood and plastic on the exterior but it doesnt hold up to rain as good.

#80 is great since it removes mild swirls and polishes in one step.

#83, but it doesnt polish.

#26 is a great wax.

#7 is a good polish.

Alot of people seem to like the glass cleaner

APC

For a fantastic 3 step; you are going to use #84 or #85 / #80 / #21 / voila 'perfection'.

#85 #84, #83, #80, #9, #26, #21, #38 if he has any, #40, #3 , trim dressing, hyper dressing, APC or APC +

Woah there, I almost forgot #66!

Polishes and Compound
M85 with rotary for deep defects
The M83/M80 Combo is definitely good

Degreasers
All Purpose Cleaner works great on all interior surfaces and safe to use on exterior surfaces.
Super Degreaser for all the tough stuff
Wheel Brightener for tough brake dust

Shampoo
Hyper Wash is very cost-effective

Paint Protectants
M21
M16

smprince1, may I ask what do you use the M34 Final Inspection, M39 Heavy Duty Vinyl Cleaner and M40 Vinyl Cleaner/Conditioner for? Thanks in advance

M34 is good to remove any polish or wax residue on the exterior surfaces. It's also good for fingerprints or smudges. I like it because it leaves a very clean surface and doesn't leave anything of it's own behind.

#39 and #40 I use on the interior vinyl and rubber. For interiors that are moderately clean I go straight to #40, it leaves a like new, matt finish with a little more sheen then something like PB's NL. It has a strong chemical smell that resembles new car smell, but it is strong and some people don't like it. I use #39 before #40 if it's too dirty.

I'm not sure there's any reason to exclusively use Meguiars. What's the point?

[Williebeemin]

Better deals on products..

No, I use lots of different brands since it seems I like different lines/products instead of just one.
