  • Pictures from Thursday Night Open Garage - November 13, 2014

    Last night we showed our new product lineup at a special edition of TNOG. By far the most anticipated product among those present was our new Paint Protect, but everyone seemed pretty wowed by the new Perfect Clarity Headlight Restoration Kit and the new DA foam discs. Of course the MT300 was pretty popular, too!


    Our subject headlight. It's actually a lot worse than this image indicates.


    From a different angle, taped for demo. It's easier to see the level of oxidation and yellowing present from this angle.


    Scuffing in straight lines with the included scuffing solution and pad.


    A nicely scuffed, frosted looking lens.


    No polishing, no rubbing.... just spray the UV protective clear over the scuffed lens. By the way, this product is ATSM Certified to protect against UV for at least 12 months.


    After a couple more coats.... done.


    Half and half shows the improvement, with no buffing and very little effort overall.


    Bob was kind enough to donate his BMW Z4 for the guys to use the new MT300 DA polisher on, along with the new pads.




    Paul is one handing the MT300 while applying Paint Protect to the Z4. We applied a very small amount of Paint Protect to the pad and it just kept spreading and spreading.


    There were plenty of cameras out last night so please feel free to add your own images, or at least your thoughts about last night, by posting to this thread.

    See you all next year!!

      Mike I would like to thank you and Mike Pennington for demoing some of the 2015 products for us. It's truly amazing seeing the headlight kit. So simple with great results. 2015 is going to bring some great new products.

          I can't wait until the new DA is released! What sort of warranty comes with the DA? If we are outside of window, will there be options for servicing?

            Seen were Michael Stoops answered from another post. "Warranty is one year, and we're still working out details for repair of damaged tools."

              Thanks to both Mike Stoops and Mike Pennington for this event! It was super awesome to try the MT300 and the new pads as well as see how some of the new stuff works. Can't wait for "365" (Paint Protect if I must comply) to come out!

                "Paint Protect"? I thought the new product is called "365"? Hint....Hint

                  Now that the dust has settled, I'll share a few tidbits from this past TNOG...

                  1st of all, how cool is it to have both Mike Pennington and Mike Stoops doing a demo of the new unreleased product at the Meguiars Garage? Very cool indeed



                  Btw, this new headlight restoration kit that you've heard everyone raving about really does perform crazy results in just 2 easy steps.



                  This new kit is a no brainer. Get it. Nuff said.



                  Moving along to the new MT300 w/new foam discs... It was only right for us to make way and let Bob aka "imz4in" aka the Godfather of TNOG have 1st crack on the new polisher.. Surprisingly enough, this was actually the 1st time Bobs pristine Z4 BMW was in the Meguiars garage to have anything cleaned or polished.

                  Here we see Alan the "Jokeman" giving Bob a spinechilling peptalk as he gets ready to christen the MT300! [CypressWill nods in appoval] lol.



                  Bob tells everyone "RELAX, I got this"
                  Huan [right] still has goosebumps. Lol.
                  The guy popping his head in the left of the picture wonders if Bob's already polished the hood without anyone noticing!



                  Here we stand back, and watch in awe as Bob works magic with the MT300...



                  Lol.

                  Here comes the long awaited moment of truth....



                  Success! Here we watch as Mike says "I told you the new MT300 was sweet didn't I"?
                  Bob responds "You're going to have to pry this machine from my hand because I think I'm in love with the new MT300"! Lol:p



                  Always a great time gang. See ya next year!
