Amazing write up!

Re: **New** Meguiar's #105 Ultra Cut Compound Review!!!!

That was a very helpful write up!

I'm working on a '99 Lexus ES300 black and scratched to the max. Beautiful leather inside and only 113K but the paint.....heartbreak.

I started with scratchX and went to #2 fine-cut cleaner and it's coming but maybe 105 would be better.
Question: When using #2FCC I apply it till it starts to clump up and begins to squeak.............and then wipe off.
Is the squeaking a normal thing? This paint has no clear coat.

Thanks
Bob

Tim,
I would like to see you try it with a DA, as some of us do not own a rotary, but do need a little more help some times. It would be nice to see which pads and speeds used what this stuff could do on water spots bird dropping etc. I have a Thunder Gray Tundra that when done up right has a un believable finish in the sun, or under street lamps. But I would like to take it to the next step, so I can learn and keep up it's replacement finish on a high note also.

Excellent write up.

Is it only advised to use 105 with a rotary or will it work with a DA (and what type of pad)

I was at the meguiars Open Garage Last night and I remember there was a bmw with some major imperfections in the hood. They tried multiple products with the DA but I don't remember if they tried 105 with the DA. However they eventually took out the Rotary and used some 105. I think that was followed up by some 2 to remove any hazing and a bit of polish. Then it was followed by NXT 2.0, It looked amazing!

Mike Stoops can clarify what was used on the BMW but the question should probably be posted to the pictures and comments thread for the class last night.

Last Night at Meguiar's Garage!

Full house last night which ended with two cool Fords getting
warmed over at Meguiar's Garage!

M105 was designed specifically for use with a rotary buffer.

While we have seen people have success with it on a D/A, we don't really recommend it because in many cases, it will be difficult to work with on the application and difficult to wipe off.

Instead of buyer beware, we could say "D/A Buffer Beware"

All i have to say that this one of the best write-ups on a product i seen in a long time. I did get to try the M105 at a friends house who had a bottle and the wetsanding marks it took off and using wool pads was the best product i seen on the market. I'm so glad that meguiar's had beat everyone to the punch with this product! Tim thank you for doing this thread on the M105. Best product for 2008!!!!!!!!!

Nice......thanks AGAIN Tim!

I'm looking at getting some of the SO1o wool pads. A lot of pros swear by them and not at them!

Re: **New** Meguiar's #105 Ultra Cut Compound Review!!!!

Yes it does! Thanks Tim.

2hotford,

Is the W-5000 wool pad a medium or heavy cut pad? I have some Edge 2k (Green) medium cut pads I want to try with 105.

The W-5000 Double Sided Wool Pad is Meguiar's most aggressive wool pad. The order of Meguiar's wool pads would be as follows:

From least aggressive to most aggressive,

W-7006 and W-7000
So1o Light Cut Wool (Yellow)
W4000
So1o Heavy Cut Wool (Red)
W5000 Double Sided


Here's a picture to show the order from least to most aggressive...




I hope this helps!

Tim-I've used it with the yellow Solo wool pad on Mercedes ceramiclear, did an excellent job with minimal holograms. Followed with 105 and an 8006 pad and it was pretty much LSP ready.

Great job Scott!

Isn't it amazing how well M105 works! I just love the the stuff! Have you tried it with the types of pads (Wool) it was designed for use with, like the W-5000 Wool Pad? When you try that combo you will be simply amazed at what it can do!!!
