Re: Top quality products

how safe are the engine cleaner,wheel cleaners and interior cleaners to use them as it is or if i have to put some water in them??

Engine cleaners, wheel cleaners and interior cleaners are safe when used according to manufactures directions and with common sense. Northing's fool proof so you need to do your research and after getting your products use them at the correct dilution levels and also do any research necessary before using them, for example try to find out if there are any components in the engine compartment that shouldn't get wet or sprayed with a degreaser or high pressure water.

If you're working on a specific make and model of a car, try to find a forum that's dedicated to that type of car and join their forum and then ask them what to be careful around.

Re: Top quality products

Just to add another item. I would also think about getting some of the c2000 mild clay. Very good product.

Re: Top quality products

You need a certain amount of tools in your tool chest to tackle a wide range of conditions of paint.

Heavy cutting compounds - M105 is a great choice
Cleaner/polishes - M83, M80 and M82 are great choices
Pure Polishes - M07 or M81
Paint Protectants: D151, M21, M20, M26 are all great choices

Plus the normal items, foam buffing pads, wool buffing pads, quick detailers, clay, etc.

Re: Top quality products

So with #82 and #9 i will be OK??

It's good to have one or the other for a light cleaner/polish for your arsenal of tools. Whether they work or not you won't know until you try them out. They are for removing light below surface defects.

What is the difference between those 2??

Funny this question already came up once today and is still towards the top of recent threads...

Here's the answer...

They're about the same in cleaning ability, most people can't see a visual difference in the results they'll produce so either or is usually good.

Here are two threads on the topic from our Hot Topics forum

What's the difference between #9 #82 and #80


#82 Swirl Free Polish vs #9 Swirl Remover

Not enough for anyone to notice....

But I cant be sure that you will be OK, I just do a few family cars. Joe seems to get all the fun cars, or some of the other guys that get Ferrari's can maybe chime in.

Re: Top quality products

#83 - Medium
#80 - Mild
#82/#9 - Very Mild

And then of course there are different pads.

Sometimes for very soft paint, a cleaner/wax is the other option, as the wax provides some extra slickness.

Sorry,i wanted to write #80 not #83

Re: Top quality products

As far as cleaning the paint? Or what goal are you looking for?

For cleaning the paint and remove defects...I noticed that on some soft Ferrari paints,#83 was too strong...Is there something milder than #83 that i can use it with DA polisher??

Re: Top quality products

Well, I'd look at #21 2.0 in bulk for wax, #135 in bulk for QD, #40 or HyperDressing for Interior/Exterior Trim, and there is a Leather Cleaner/Conditioner in the Detailer Line. And of course some All Purpose Cleaner and a soap (#62 and Gold Class being top of the line).

As far as convertible tops, you are kind stuck with smaller sizes except for APC. You could look at the canvas cleaner and protectant in the Marine Line, or there is a new Convertible Cleaner and Protectant products that just were introduced for overseas markets. Also an engine cleaner was introduced for overseas markets.

Thanks mate..I will go to the shop with this list tomorrow ..
Also except #80 #83 what else can i use with a DA polisher??

Re: Top quality products

For owning a business, buying in bulk as much as possible is best.

Do you have access to the Detailer or Pro-Line at all?

Yes i have.i am not sure about all of them because Meguiar's are new in Cyprus and i am helping a little bit the guy that import them about what products i want...
Of course i am going to buy in bulk as much as possible....
