Disappointing products

[Tuck91]

So, I noticed that there were a couple other threads on the topic of dissappointing products, but they were about five years old. I would like to generate another discussion on products that did not meet expectations or we were left disappointed with. A lot of new products have been released since those thread back in 2005.



Here are some detailing products I have been disappointed with or thought that they did not live up to their expectations.



Meguiars NXT Generation Spray Wax- terrible product, application/removal is a real pain.



Blackfire Midnight Sun - I do not think it is all that special.



Meguiars G110- Had to get it replaced more than twice in less than a year.



Mothers All Wheel Cleaner- extremly weak.







Discuss.

Meguiars M105.



Did it just not really work for you?

[MichaelSpoots]

Multiple occasions, with different techniques, also on different makes of cars of differing years. via G110, mind you.



Correction anywhere from 70% on a `99 BMW, to 5% on an `06 Honda, to 1% on an `07 Maserati :).

*Turtle Wax Ice Polish

*Black Magic Wet Shine Wax (although the foam version is pretty good for a quick wax)

*Mothers Back to Black

Mothers Back to Black - What a useless water-downed product. Back to Crap.

LC Foamed Wool - It`s barely "capable of removing 1500 grit scratches." Highly inefficient and no durability.

ONR - Um...works excellent when the car is clean.

P21S concourse wax - looks were okay but longevity was not there at all

I am surprised to see M105 and ONR on this thread, but it just goes to show that not everyone has the same taste. I guess that is why there are a million different detailing products, so that everyone will be happy.
