  • Ultimate Compound, Swirl X and Hot Rims Mag & Aluminum Polish

    I went to the Auto parts store today to pick up some more products. As you can tell by the title; Ultimate Compound, Swirl X and Hot Rims Mag & Aluminum Polish. I am really excited to get to use these products, even though I already have 205, and 105. I have Mother's and Eagle One Mag and Aluminum Polishes, but I am not that satisfied with them. Not to bash, but I really do not like Eagle One at all. I mainly use the Mother's, hopefully that will change now though. Anyways, Does anyone know what Swirl X smells like? It is another Meguiars Product I believe. Ultimate Compound has the spicy/hot smell to it. Kind of like Menthol, and a little like Hot Rims Mag and Aluminum Polish. Hot Rims smells like hot cinnamon. I mainly bought the products to use as quick little touch ups, and for the Ambulances. I really look forward to get to use the amazing new products. Review to come soon.....

    After Smelling other Products that I have, are SwirlX and 205 the same/similar products?
    I believe so and that is why I bought SwirlX, to have on hand and to use quick and easily!
    Although IMO, I do not think that 105 and Ultimate Compound smell alike or even similar for that matter.

      Honestly, does it matter what they smell like? As long as they perform that's all that should matter.

        No, SwirlX and M205 are not the same. SwirlX is more aggressive than M205. Also, the products have a very different consistency. SwirlX is very thick, while M205 is much thinner.

          Ughhh. that would drive me nuts. Had a run in with some fireball whiskey years ago and cinnamon has never been the same.

          I just Picked up some of the NXT All metal polysh. Smells good (like all NXT stuff) The mirror glaze Metal polish smells good too! like Pina coladas!

          Have yet to try it out on my aluminium rims though lol

                Talking about smell of a product.
                I personally like GC wax followed by ColorX( smells and looks like my grandpa's haircream ).
                NXT shampoo smells awful.
