    Just wanted to comment on the effectiveness and the gentleness of cleaner wax. A1216. As posted above, I’ve been using it on the white van at work. To get my “wax fix” I’m waxing the van every month. No problem at all wearing down the clear coat. Of course I’m doing it by hand. Thank you Meguiars !! I’m a wax junkie ….Franco

    I hope you guys are checking out the label situation with the new bottles of a12. Customers are asking at the store “what’s wrong with this bottle of wax”… Even on Amazon they are asking the same thing. Sorry to post this here, but I’m a huge Meguiars fan and I don’t want you guys to get a bad rep. Franco

    Hey Nick. Didn’t know where to post this. I work at advance auto. All the new style bottles of cleaner wax, the labels are peeling off. The new bottles of polish/compound etc. are fine. Just the liquid cleaner wax. Plus a strong smell of the product while it’s still sealed. Just wanted to give you a heads up.

    Megs Ultimate spray wax. So easy to use, nice results, and your store is supplying, so free. Thats a win.

    Thanks Murr. I’ve decided to stay at the auto parts shop. I’ll keep on taking care of the delivery vehicles. I’ll be using A12 four times a year on them. Any recommendations for a spray wax ? The store is supplying the products. Meguiars of course.

    Oh, the A12 is mild enough to use every week... but really wasting time at that point....

    Thanks guys. I think my post is now moot. The university I retired from reached out and offered me a part time position. Kinda like going home. Murr , I think you’re right about 2-3 times a year. I was just curious about cleaner wax’s abrasive properties. Buddy my friend, it’s always good to hear from you!! Hope you’re doing well.

    Dedication and pride right there. And if doing it is more hobby/fun, it isn't work, but what you enjoy doing. The company will never see their vehicles look this good while your taking care of them.

    Unless you are in super aggressive environment, I wouldnt see much need for that. Maybe 2 -3 waxes, and 2 -3 spray wax touch ups after...

    Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving. I work part time at an auto parts store. 3-4 days a week. We have 3 delivery vehicles. Chevy Colorado, Nissan kicks, and my ride a dodge little van. They get zero love in the cleaning/detailing department. Plus they are white. I convinced my boss to let me take them home on my days off to detail them. Besides the usual interior work, all I do is wash them with gold class and wax them with cleaner wax A12. Awesome. It makes the white paint “pop”. They’ll get waxed at least 6 times a year. Too many times per year?

    How long has it been!

    Good to see you too, Mike!

    I still have a gallon or two of Final Detail left in the box you sent me years back. Still works!
