Meguiar's Cleaner/Wax

[gr8-wrx]

If I'm going to use a G100 to apply Meguiar's Cleaner/Wax, should I use a W8006 or W9006 pad? TIA

Re: Meguiar's Cleaner/Wax

You mean the Consumer Line cleaner/wax?

9006 should give the better finish, since that cleaner/wax isnt very strong of a cleaner anyway.

The W-8006 polishing pad, the finishing pad is so soft and gentle to the paint you would greatly reduce the cleaning ability of the product by using this pad.

Remember, the effectiveness or aggressiveness of any product is always influenced and affected by

• Application Method, (hand or machine and even the type of machine)
• Application Material, (foam, microfiber, terry cloth, wool, etc.)

Run the polisher on the 5.0 setting just like you would a cleaner/polish like M80 Speed Glaze

Depends on what he's trying to accomplish, lay down a coat of wax or clean the paint. If he's looking to merely apply wax then the foam finishing pad will be more gentle to the finish and not work the chemical cleaners in the wax to their fullest extent, if he's looking to clean the paint relying on the chemical cleaners and the diminishing abrasive then he wants to use the foam polishing pad.

Thanks, Mike! This is exactly the info I was looking for. I was planning on using the chemical cleaners in the wax for very mild cleaning. Sorry for not being so clear earlier...
