#6 vs. ColorX

ColorX and M06 are probably very close in their cleaning ability, there are some differences in the formulas as M06 can be applied with a rotary buffer. Used side by side by hand on the same neglected paint panel with integrity, I don't think you would see enough difference in the results to say that one was better over the other as they both work really well.

p.s.

The abrasives in both these products are diminishing abrasives as Meguiar's doesn't use any abrasives in our Automotive Line that don't break down. This is a benefit to the user as it insures a more gentle and intelligent approach to cleaning the paint and removing defects.

Diminishing abrasives are . I have had some success with #6 in removing light rail dust so that speaks well for it!

I've used one bottle of ColorX (obviously not all of it on my own cars) and started a second, and I've used #6 once. Not that there's anything wrong with #6, but I "feel better" using ColorX. When I pull it out to use it on an oxidized red or black Miata (for example), I have 100% confidence that I know the results in advance.

If I had to pick one product to use on my cars and forsake all others, I would pick proper technique and ColorX.
