Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

[Superior Shine]

Do you use 100% Meguiars products? If not about what % is Meguiars. For the products that aren’t Meguiars please explain why you use them and not Meguiars.

I am not asking about products others make that Meguiars doesn’t have an equivalent to. For example I use a fabric protector not made by Meguiars because Meguiars doesn’t make one.

Thanks

I use mostly Meguiars but not 100%.

I can only think of three items that arn't Meguiars-

1. micro fiber- I found very good towels in bulk at a pretty good price.

2. Odor eliminator, I have been using a brand since before Meg. came out with theirs. I havn't tried Meguiars yet.

3. DA backing plate, I perfer the mirka plates which has an aliance with Meguiars so this one almost dosnt count.

Otherwise all my paint cleaners, polishes, protectants, degreasers, window cleaner, etc... are Meguiars!

I'd say I am about 75-80% meg's. I use some select products from the Clearkote and Poorboy's lineup when there is no way to avoid the sun. I use VM on every car I do, I just love the stuff.

Hi Superior.

For all the exterior (exept rims), I use only Meguiars. As for carpets and convertible tops, I'm still experimenting.
I have just purchased a steam-cleaner, to try out on floor-carpet, etc.
Here in Norway we have a household-product called "Grønnsåpe" or "Greensoap". It is made out of natural plantoils and is exellent for getting off "impossible" dirt-spots, like old stains, grease and even paint-spots on vinyl and leather. Off course, I use Meguiars Leather-Conditioner after, and Cleaner for maintenance.
For engine compartment and rims I use a degreaser made by "Biltema" It's cheap and works great, getting oil and dirt of the motor and brake-dust off the rims. I Since I haven't been able to get hold of any similar products from Meguiars here, I'm not able to compare yet.

100% all the way

About the only thing that is not Meguiars is my PC and some microfiber towels... I am in the process of changing over to all Megs towels.

All Meguiars except for my PC and Costco Microfiber towels -
Ultimate bonnets, 4 pads, backing plate, #80, #83, #20, #21, #9, NXT Tech Wax, NXT Speed detailer, NXT Glass Cleaner, Insane Tire, Wheel Cleaner, NXT Car Wash.......I think that's all that is in my kit - - - Wife says "Enough"

Probabily around 60 to 70 percent. Really depends on the car. Some cars I will use 100% meguiars, other I mix. Still use a lot from p21s, wheel cleaner, wax, and cleaner. Autoglym leather cleaner and conditioner, also their interior carpet cleaner. Microfibers from another company. Wolfgang tire gel, 303 protectant/ top cleaner. Some other stuff. Meguiars has many equals in products, but I like the other stuff so I stick with it.

Everything except glass cleaner, I use Stoners. Until I can get the new NXT glass cleaner here in Canada.

Since this summer, I try to get nothing but Meguiar's.
But, since there's no cleaning accessories available here in stores, I have to get some others brands for MF towels, wash mit, pads and things like that.

For the wheels and tires, I use SprayNine because it's way cheaper than Meguiar's Hot Rims. I've never tried this HotRims stuff though.

As for the interior, I have the Mother's Preserve spray. It smells nice and did a great job for the kind of plastic I had in my last car. For my new Pursuit I still use only water to preserve the new car smell. I may start to use NXT interior spray during the winter.

But one this is for sure, next time I go see my aunt in Connecticut, I'll get myself a bunch of Meguiar's cleaning accessories and products.
