I`ve seen this product and am assuming it is just a wax QD, but the product description describes otherwise, *Aggressive cutting action*.



Many people on the boards insist on #34; however, when it comes to using a wax QD on carnauba people opt to use different brands.

On a side not, I plan on applying a couple coats of #26. For daily use, and to extend the life of the wax and shine, should I use #34 or #66 daily?

This is one product where Meguiar`s has screwed up their labels. I wish they`d fix it.



#66 is not a QD in the typical sense. Its a cleaner wax product. Its more aggressive than #6 cleaner wax and really targeted at car dealers prepping cars for their lot and car washes who offer those "20 minute wash and wax" jobs. IIRC, #66 is not offered in consumer-friendly sizes, more like quart and gallon sizes which are perfect for businesses.



Maybe someday Meguiar`s will rethink this particular product`s label to more accurately reflect what it is. But in their defense #66 really is not a consumer product.

There was a thread last year where some poor guy bought a gallon of this stuff thinking it was a QD like #34.....



BTW, I`m not sure there`s such a thing as a "wax QD", but there are spray waxes and also a few carnauba containing QDs on the market, which don`t really apply all that much wax by themselves.

Use #34 whenever you think it is needed. Daily, weekly, hourly, whatever works for you.



Leave the #66 at the store. Most enthusiasts do not want this product at all. As was stated, it is intended for production work.
