    Metal Polish Differences?

    Hi. What is the difference between Meguiar's Mirror Glaze All Metal Polish 142g (M2805) and Meguiar's NXT Generation All Metal Polysh 142g (G13005)? Thanks

    Re: Metal Polish Differences?

    I had a thread that listed the metal polishes offered and their differences/main uses. I saved it from the old new forum (a very worthwhile Mike Phillips post explaining it all) and posted it here, but it is gone now?

    Going from memory here, but I believe the main difference is that the Mirror Glaze Polish is more gentle than the NXT. Other than that, they are similar? Perhaps someone else can remember any more differences that may sway you to want to choose one over the other...

      Good lord...back to 1 minute edit times....

      I remembered now. The NXT is more aggressive and has an anti-corrosion protectant in it.

        I know the Nxt and the Marine Line are very similar.

        The Hot Rims Mag and Aluminum should be stronger.

        And then Chrome Polish being the strongest.

          Agreed that NXT and Marine Line (M93?) are very similar. I have both and they are nearly identical, this was also confirmed by one of the Mikes on MOL. Having said that, the NXT consumer polish has been discontinued. If you want NXT, you'll need to pickup the M93. It works out well because M93 is 14oz of polish and should last you a really long time. You can find it on Amazon for $16-$18, which is a great price.

          I have not tried the other metal polishes, I feel that NXT / Marine line covers pretty much every aspect of metal polishing that I need...plus, I don't have any chrome on my cars.

            Yeah, no kiddin'! What's the logic here? At least give us five minutes in case we catch a typo or grammatical error.

              On the subject of chrome/metal polish, what is recommended for the ABS coated in chrome. For example, car badges and door handles. I want to give mine a little shine, but am affraid of using the wrong thing and screwing them up.

                I have used NXT on the chrome trim on my Neon. Works pretty good! Stick with that or a polish that is less aggressive than that.
