Good afternoon, everyone..........my name is Ray. I'm new to this whole Forum "thing". Please forgive me if I make mistakes; Been a computer user for many years, but never really got into the "community" forum thing........kind of a loner, I am. However, I must say, I have been looking at the Megs online forums now for some time, and I must say "thanks Meguiar's," for this fine site. I have already learned much from all the kind folks who visit here. I'm from Southern New Hampshire.
I am at that awkward age.....too old to be young, too young to be old (54). Love claying, polishing and waxing my little "duece coupe"........a 2006 Acura RSX Type S (Milano Red). She's my daily driver. I use the following procedure: I wash with Megs crystal car wash, dry with a Megs WW towel, then I clay the whole vehicle (amazing how smooth it becomes after you clay it!). I then clean the bad areas (front, mostly) with Scratch-X, then I polish with #7 Show Car Glaze, and finish with #26 Hi-Tech Wax. Comes out really nice. (IMHO)
If I may.......a BIG thanks to Mike Phillips for giving so much of your time to this site, your great patience with the many questions. I recently purchased your DVD (How to use the PC for showcar results); it is so great.......I went out and purchased a PC and some Meg's pads and #80 Speed Glaze, but my wife will not let me have it 'til Christmas.....D'Oh!!!!!! So, I'm using the "by hand" techniques you show on the DVD for now. My ride has the "DIS" option, like so many other new cars. I'm using Scratch X and No 7 for now........can't wait to try #80 and that PC.........(hey, maybe I can sneak it out of the Xmas wrap, try it out, and re-wrap it........hmmmmm.)
Finally, my one question to Mike (or anyone who would like to respond): How often can I use the PC and Speed Glaze 80 on my car? I would guess it would be okay to use #80 just when I see a lot of swirls, yes??
There are some truly beautiful vehicles on here - I hope to get some pics of mine soon, and will try to figure out how to post them.
Sorry for this long post.........I hope I am in the right place.......please correct me if I'm not........thanks so much, everyone!!
