Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

I am not 100% Meguiar's User but pretty darn close.

Only things that are not Meg's is my DA, pads, Rinseless Wash and WW MF drying towel.

Meguiar's stuff that I do have are...
Ultimate Compound
SwirlX
ColorX
Ultimate Polish
Clay
Quik Detailer
Quik Interior Detailer
Ultimate Quik Wax
Gold Class Leather Cleaner & Conditioner
Hot Rims All Wheels and Tire Cleaner
Gold Class Endurance High Gloss Tire Gel
Gold Glass Carnauba Plus
NXT Tech Wax
Ultimate Liquid Wax
HiTech Applicator Pads
EvenCoat Applicator
Supreme Shine Microfiber Towels
Ultimate Wipe Detailing Cloth

Off the top of my head... I think those are all.

Not a 100% Meguiar's user.

I will be trying these Meguiar's product equivalents as I exhaust what I already have:
1) Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish - Widely available, and works with exceptional results.
2) Mother's Cleaner Wax - Smells great w/ easy application & removal.


Products I won't replace w/ Meguiars:
1) Zaino 9 (Leather Cleaner) & Zaino 10 (Leather in a Bottle), smells great & non-greasy. I tried GC Leather Cleaner & Leather Conditioner (both sprays). I am not satisfied with the Leather Conditioner, it left my leather seats excessively oily.
2) XP Renew-It - Works great to nourish any plastic trim!
3) Warehouse store microfiber towels - Purchased in bulk, inexpensive... can't beat it.
4) Absorber to dry.

Meguiar's products I use regularly: Hot Rims (All Wheel/Rim and Aluminum Wheel cleaners), GC Wash/Conditioner, Clay Kit, QD, UQD, ULW, GCQW, and Hot Shine tire shine.
Other stuff I use when needed: UC, SwirlX, M07, M80, M83, and I recently got a bottle of UP!

I used up my Megs clay kit and went with Mothers cause the store had it at a great price and was looking to try another clay (heard Mothers was slightly more aggressive anyway).

Bad Idea...The Mother's clay was very sticky and was almost like working with pizza dough. So NOW I have a fresh supply of Meguiar's clay. Live and learn

What did you use for lube? some clays seem to like a certain brand of lube while others you can use anything

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

That matches my experience with Mothers Clay, very sticky even when using Megs Quik Detailer, or Mother's Show detailer...

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

I'm probably around 15-20% of my whole line.

Polishes - Menzerna
Chem cutters - Car-pro
Apc - 1Z
Sealant - Car-pro
Dressings - Chem Guys
Soaps - Chem guys
Clay - Riccaro
Cleaners - Meguiars
Wax's - Was swissvax - replaced with megs M16

One thing of note... I'd buy ALOT more megs products if they made some new age tech stuff. I'm always looking for quality products that save me time. Ex. Nano skin hybrid clay wash mitt! MEGS CAN YOU HEAR ME!

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

Been using all Megs products for a VERY long time, over 30 years now.

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

not a 100% cause i cant find all the products where i live

[billddrummer]

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

100% with chemicals, but use cheaper terry towels, found in bulk at a good price.

the towels are 100% terry, deep pile and work.

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

I'm almost there ...

I use GC Shamp & Cond, GC Quik Wax, ULW, Megs Polish, WWA. The only product I am still trying to figure out the hype about and use as an additional pre-cleaner to lift dirt off my motorcycle is honda and polish and cleaner. I use it dampen my MF cloth when I wipe of the Meg's polish.

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

The vast majority of my products are Meguiar's. Like 90%. I have a few Mothers products, Lexol, Stoner Bug & Tar Remover, Sprayway glass cleaner and few other brands that only have 1 product from. Otherwise, Meguiar's all the way!

[ffboy]

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

Majority of my line up now.. I have Black Wax, NXT 2.0 and Ultimate Paste Wax, UQD and UQW, Ultimate Protectant and Ultimate Interior Detailer, and Ultimate Compound.

Mothers: Step 1 Cleaner and Step 2 glaze, CG Synthetic, leather cleaner and leather conditioner, VLR, showtime, reflections top coat, and reflections spray wax

I also have Collinites 476s (the Big one) and 915, I love those 2.

Lastly, 3M... leather and vinyl restorer, performance finish and perfect it paste wax.

I somehow find a good way to mix and match most of them!

Re: Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

Better than 90% Meguiars even my orbital buffer. On occasion I have bought Mother's products but I like to keep everything the same. Most non Meguiars products were won in raffles at shows and cruise nights. My classic car get's all Meguiars. Microfiber towels I get everywhere.
