    Nothing like some good sarcasm! There are some fplks on other forums who truly believe that.

    Yes.

    Just for you and everyone that reads this into the future...

    Meguiar's started out in the furniture polish industry and then as cars were introduced to society, we moved into the automotive world by creating products for the professional trade, that is the people that applied fresh paint onto car bodies both at the assembly line and as more people bought cars like Model T's and then wrecked them, a new industry was started called the "Body Shop" and because our products were safe for fresh paint they were safe for use in body shops.

    It wasn't until 1973 that Meguiar's introduced their first products for the "Consumer Market", consumers don't apply fresh paint so their needs are different than the professional side of this industry.

    Point being is a lot of people don't understand that our roots, our history is a history of making body shop safe products for the professional side of the automotive industry and thats why we make products like #7 Show Car Glaze, they're a part of our Professional Line that we've been making for over 100 years for use in fresh paint environments.

    It's easy if you're young or new to detailing to read a bunch of stuff on other forums like,

    Meguiar's is pretty good for an OTC product


    When that is so far from the bigger picture and just an indicator of the lack of knowledge by the people that make posts like this.

    Currently Meguiar's offers 5 pure polishes, (a pure polish means it's a non-abrasive polish), and all of these including the one in our Consumer Line can be safely used on fresh paint.

    M03 Machine Glaze
    M05 New Car Glaze
    M07 Show Car Glaze
    M81 Hand Polish
    Deep Crystal Polish


    So with Meguiar's you have not only plenty of options for whatever you come up against you can have confidence that the product you're using have a time-proven history of success in the professional side of our industry not too mention generations of loyal, satisfied customers.


    The flip-side of this coin is the majority of product for sale in the retail market and most of the offerings by what we call web-based wax companies, (you learn about these on forums), are not safe for fresh paint because these companies have not in the past and currently don't manufacture a professional line of products that caters to the professional side of our industry. All they make is consumer products, that is they are limited to catering to consumers with cured paint.

    There's a huge difference in product abilities, (even company abilities), based upon extensive long-time industry success and earned expertise when it comes to us and them. :grin
