Re: Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere

Will this product cause swirls or scratches when all you have to do is spray and wipe a dirty car/SUV??

Re: Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere

I picked some of this up a week or so ago. I tried it on a section of my blue pontiac and it works very very well! And not to mention, the SMELL is spectacular! The stuff smells like raspberries. Very very pleasant smell, highly recommend it!

Re: Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere

When will UWWA be available in a gallon size? Pretty sure there will be demand for it....

If the car is extremely dirty and you really feel the need to do a water rinse first, we'd suggest swinging by a coin-op wash, give it a quick once over, and then while it's still wet use the UWWA to really clean the finish and leave a nice bit of synthetic protection behind.

I don't imagine I could get away with calling that the "Iowa Method". Shawn T might object.

Due to some recent time constraints, I've done this a few times and I love UWWA!!! On a black car this stuff is great!

510GUY, if you're looking for an excellent all around product to clean up the Miata on extended road trips, then UWWA is exactly what you want. For those road trips it could replace the NXT Car Wash Soap, UQD and UQW combined. You wouldn't even have to do the water rinse and dry first, just use UWWA with several microfiber towels and you're done.

Re: Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere

Mike,

I apologize if this question has already been asked. When I go on road trips in my Miata space is extremely limited as you know. I only have roomn for one bottle it I am taking some NXT soap along to wash the car. So what should it be? Currently I take UQD, NXT Wash, Meg's dyring towels and detailing cloths. It appears that I could use UWWA to do a quick clean as I wouild use UQD and replace the need to take the NXT soap. If I can do a quick water rinse, dry the car and then use UWWA, that would appear to be the way to go and would free up some valuable trunk space.

Can you share your thoughts on this?

Thanks,

Re: Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere

Was wondering if this is going to be made available in a bulk packaging, like Ultimate Wash&Wax was available. $15 for a small bottle is good, but it will run out pretty fast. Also, how many washes can I do on a typical sedan (Say accord or similar) from single bottle - assuming that the car is washed regularly and not heavily soiled?

The bottle says 3-4 average sized cars w/ average dirt, but it sounds like you'll be using it closer to a traditional detailer, so your usage should be comparable to what you get w/ QD/UQD (at least, that's what I've found).

You'll want to look at the Rinselss Wash in the Pro Line.

Re: Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere

Are there certain stores that will be receiving these? I just checked all my local auto store shops (that also carry a wide range of meguiars products) and no one has the product yet.

Re: Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere

does anyone else have the problem with the bottle leaking, when shaking the bottle it leaks from where the cap screws onto the bottle. ive tried to make it tighter but it wont turn anymore. i had my towel on the bottle and the wind knocked it over and it leaked.

I think there could be something wrong with the seal on the nozzle. I haven't had any issues. I tested out UWWA about a week ago on my hood which was filthy from about 2 weeks driving in wet and rain and road salt. It worked beautifully. For me UWWA and Ultima Waterless Wash Plus are tied as my favorites, however I think Meg's performed even slightly better than Ultima. Ultima is less expensive since it comes in a concentrate and I use it for customer cars. However, the UWWA is what I would recommend to customers wanting to do it themselves since it's so easy to find at the store. I'll definitely be buying some more for my personal ride So far I've tried 4 different waterless washes. DP, Ultima, CroftGateUSA, and now Meguiars.

If I were to rate them, this would be the order:

1. UWWA
UWW+
2. DP
3. CroftGateUSA (They've fallen behind the curve. The other brands are producing better and less expensive products)

Nice!

Hi. I haven't had the chance to try and report on GCQD due to work and weather. Will do this weekend!

Re: Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere

Great, thanks for the review!

Did you get a chance to try the new GC QD? How was it?

Before I forget, I also tried UWWA on the wheels by spraying the microfiber tower instead of the wheel directly in order to avoid product contact with non painted surfaces. It did not do well with this requirement. Will not try that again.

I just GCQD on the hood as sample. It enhanced the look and finish of the hood very nicely and, as already stated, did not add the added protection as UQD. It is a must for when visibility is more important than durability. Note that my car is green and I clearly noticed how it darkened the tone just as NXT 2 does.

I'm planning on doing the whole car today after work. Will let you know how it goes.

For reference, this is an older photo of my car so that you can see the color.
