....were you people ever right about megs ultimate QD ! remember my raves about long haul? Well, i still insist the shine it put on my car is one that i haven't seen since it was new. But it's not all that slick and it leaves a haze in spots that you have to look out for in the right light and rub off. So it's not perfect, but the shine is, at least on my car.



Enter the $10 bottle of megs UQD.....holy fruck ! Not only is the shine the only QD that i've used which matches the long haul, but 1)-i think it's even shinier, 2)-it's as slick as anything and slicker than most, 3)-it goes on and off w/o any haze or leaving anything like that. note however in sun it's unusable. At least for me.

I only tried this stuff because as much as i liked LH, i was getting tierd of finding hazy spots i'd missed a day after i QD'd it. so i thought *** when i saw the megs at AZ. Figured it's worth a shot.



But heres what i love about it....it seems as tho it leaves a coat of plastic on the paint. Almost like you just sprayed a fresh 10 coats of clear lacquer on it. And if you recall i said that the long haul gave an incredible shine to my car but looked no better than any other QD on my more prized vehicle.......my bike. I guess it has to do with colors, but my "graphite" colored metallic car looked awesome while my blue metallic bike with black fenders and tank accents looked just ok. Well, i did my bike with the megs, paint AND chrome and the result was orgasmic. Even what it does for the chrome was amazing.



This stuff is one of those rare products that comes out and totally up's the ante in it's field. I don't use the boutique products many of you use, so i don't know about those QD's. But nothing off the shelf at the chains like pep boy, auto zone, etc, comes close to this stuff. I would call it phenomenal. The only thing that remains to be seen is longevity, and from what i've heard here so far i think thats already a given. I'm just crossing my fingers that we don't one day see a formula change that leaves you wondering "what happened to my product?". Every time i find anything this good that always seem to happen eventually.
 
I also love this stuff! I just put it on my freshly washed Jeep tonight and its amazing the shine and beading it gives.. Best product Ive ever used and I will continue to use it as long as they produce it.. I couldnt imagine why they would ever stop making this unless something better came along..



Although they did just up and stop making those awesome brushes.. Everyone seemed to of loved them from what I read.. I just wish I would of stocked up before they did.. By the time i figured out what they did I couldnt find them anywhere beside on the internet but they wanted crap loads..
 
I have to agree with what you said.......i haven't got the slightest reservation about saying it's the best product of any kind i have ever used on my vehicles. Nothing has exceeded my expectations to this degree. About 30-40% more than other QD's and more than worth every penny. I'm seriously stoked and i'm not even a detail freak like most here. And by the way, it's the first megs product i've really liked.(liked is a huge understatement) All others i felt were bettered by various other brands like mothers or even eagle 1.



:thx Megs !
 
I'm glad you guys like it. As for me, I wasn't at all impressed and feel there are much better products for the money. To each their own! Cheers.
 
if you haven't tried Aquawax, give it a shot too. it's just as easy to use, and offers some protection as well...

I would, but i'm so thrilled with UQD i have no reason too unless it's cheaper, works the same and is available locally. I don't buy detailing products online for several reasons. But the point is, unless the megs is very bad as longevity goes, and i've read reviews that suggest the opposite, it's all i need. And in So Cal it rains very little so thats not an issue. Also, i have tried several spray waxes and i don't like certain things about them.
 
Comparing a quick detailer to a spray wax is like comparing apples to oranges. A QD is the better choice for cleaning, and the spray wax is the better choice after cleaning. Many people seem to get them confused.

i figured if you were looking for a good wowo product then give AW a try that is all :) . they both are similiar as they're both easy to use, and offer some protection. you can AW at your local carquest for around $6-$7. try some you won't be dissappointed... :up
 
I see. Well, i'd probably end up trying that stuff eventually because i'm probably not going to use the UQD for my car. I mainly want it for the bike because it requires so much more maintenance, and the long haul is fine for the car. (bike is my baby....car is my tool) Problem is, i think you may be on the east coast or midwest or something because i've never seen a carquest store around here. If there was i'd probably try it on the car tho. In any case at this point i'm not even in need of a new and better product. I'm happy as heck with what i have now.

He's from SoCal also and if I recall correctly, you're also from the SoCal area. To be honest with you, it wasn't until recently that I even knew Carquests existed in SoCal. Many are hidden from view and located in not well traveled business parks or business locations. It seems like they cater more to auto shops, mechanics, etc. and not to the general retail public. The selections within stores can be somewhat limited.



Their most "retail friendly" store I found was the one in Santa Ana. I've been to the one in Signal Hill, Westminster, Orange and the Santa Ana store was the largest, easiest to find, and had more product selection on the shelves. They can also order the products for you in gallon size if they don't already have it in the store.



If you're willing to spend $10.XX for Meg's Ultimate QD, you can afford to try the DG AquaWax along with their car wash concentrate all for less than $13 after tax. If you're using some cheap car wash right now you won't want to go back to it after you try their car wash. They have a good line of products, but the 2 products I mentioned are must-haves from Duragloss.
