Review - Meguiar's Ultimate Fast Finish

[The Guz]

Thanks for the review, Guz!

Two of the DD's in the family fleet have been done with PP365 for the winter. Based on the info I've read so far, they'll be wearing UFF long before next winter's wrath. I like the idea that I can correct, polish and wax before applying UFF.

How's PP365 holding up? I would be curious to here how UFF lasts in the winter.

I'll let you k now as soon as I get temps around here warm enough to wash the car instead of turning it into a Camaro-cicle.

I'm quite happy with the PP365 so far. Both cars were done in mid-November and both haven't been washed in over a month. We've had a few snows, up to 4" at a time and temps down into the single digits. My local municipality has been very generous with both salt and liquid chemical application. If the damn sun ever shines, I'll try and get a picture, maybe this weekend, as temps are supposed to moderate for a few days, possibly enough for some wash jobs. What I'm impressed with so far is PP365's self-cleaning properties. A snowfall comes, so we get a bunch of salt, then after a bit of rain the cars look obviously dirty, but not crusty like you'd expect. On the Fit, the appearance reminds me of a few years ago when I Opticoated it.
If we do get some decent temps this weekend, I'll wash 'em both and tag onto the thread I started back in November when I did the original application.

On my black Lacrosse, which gets washed virtually every Saturday before work, I applied PP365 to all the door jambs and Sonax Gummi Phledge to all the weatherstrips, even though it's wearing conventional sealants (DG105 and 111) on the exterior. Haven't had to deal with a frozen stuck door yet.

Thanks for the review.

Do you have any feel for how many cars one can will do?

Or along the same line, how it may work compared to UQW for after a wash? Esp around now, when the washes and waxing are less frequent....

Thanks.

Should work just fine if using after a wash.

If someone is planning to use this as a drying aid, I would be hesitant to waste it in that manner as it is not cost effective. Not to mention I don't know how it would play with water still on the surface. I would stick with a detail spray or spray wax as a drying aid.

Nick posted this comment and I would tend to agree with his statement. I would say 6 would be pushing it. Larger vehicles like and SUV maybe 2-3 applications. I used very little and it went a long way.

Wow! I only really have 2 questions:

1) Is this replacing 365 or simply an addition to the lineup?
2) Is one aerosol good for only 1 car or is it expected to cover multiple average sized cars?

Great questions! Ultimate Fast Finish is an addition to the line up and will complete about 4 - 5 standard sized cars.

Nice review Guz! Thanks for taking the time to put this together.

Sure thing Nick. I may have an actual car to be putting this on soon if things work out.

Great review Mike!

Now to see if Meguiars Aus. will bring UFF over here. I can't order it myself from the States, as it's an aerosol and they won't ship them.

Have you seen any durability reviews for UFF yet? If it really lasts the same or longer than PP365, then it makes that product a bit obsolete IMO.

I have not seen any. The product is still new.

It's definitely easier to apply that PP365. It also takes less time to apply.

This product sounds like a winner!
