    Oh, we know he did..... and our response was a bit of the same. Maybe we should have used the same emoticon?

    Availability could be as soon as the next couple of weeks as this is a currently produced product. It's just a question of delivery through the proper channels. But don't expect to see it at your local auto parts store; it's going to be either an online purchase or through a PBE store like the majority of the Mirror Glaze line.

    Michael, or anyone else that can answer this, What will be the normal process for this? M101 followed by... M205 or something else?

    Generally, yes. In most cases you'll need to follow M101 with a less aggressive polish, whether that be M205 or anything else you like as a finishing polish.

    So now all we really need to add to the line up is M201, and then their consumer equivilents, let's call them 'Ultimate Compound-Cousin', and 'Ultimate Polish-Cousin' so we know they are related, but not the same. Don't forget 'Ultimate Wax-Cousin'..... Just kidding Mike.

    There really seems to be a whole lot of choice of product from Meguiars. Great for those that like to experiment, but I still loves me good ol' M105/M205 combo!

    I've found that following up M101 with D300 on a polishing disk is usually LSP ready. Of course the varialbes matter and come into play but that's a pretty killer defect combo.

    Follow that combo with M205 and the finish is even better. Although M105 works great it dries quickly and splatters. I can deal with a little M101 dusting but the M105 flashing and splatte4r drives me nuts. I'm looking forward to M101.

    Drop a little D300 on the same pad as M105 and watch your working time increase and dust decrease.

    MY favorite online Retailer isn't selling it yet.
    I could have used some this weekend. I am also running low on M105.
    Shoot I'd be willing to drive down to Irvine to get some.

    Be patient..... it won't be long now. As for driving to Irvine, remember that we don't have a full "factory store" here so you can't buy it at our offices here.

    The push comes from being pretty excited to give this stuff a try. Nothing likes to cut through my paint, and maybe just maybe M101 will be my answer. Plus I am really amped on the idea of using with D300 to reduce dusting.

    About Irvine, I figured if I sat out front long enough with a "GOT M101?" written on cardboard someone would throw me a bone/bottle.
