Meguiar's Mirror Bright - Overview





Since Mirror Bright launched, we have seen threads and received questions like:

What makes Mirror Bright unique?

Why should I use Mirror Bright?

We wanted to provide a sort of "recap" covering some of what Mirror Bright is all about.

In short, Mirror Bright is about simplicity & multi-function with enhanced performance. Mirror Bright is a simple, easy to use, "essentials" line of products especially for someone new into car care who may be overwhelmed by the wide range of choices currently available. By keeping the product focus narrow but with high performance, it takes the guess work out of picking "the right product" for less experienced enthusiasts. Conversely, Mirror Bright is also a great choice for more experienced users when you don't have time for multi-step detailing but still want superior results. The design is inspired by Meguiar's long standing history & tradition in surface care, yet utilizing all new modern technology & formulations. This is why Mirror Bright carries the tagline: Tradition. Re-crafted.

Mirror Bright now features 7 key items. They are multi-purpose, easy to use, brand new formulations. Mirror Bright covers the basics of interior & exterior, but also represents a little something more.

"For users new into car care, Mirror Bright covers virtually every basic aspect, while also focusing on simplicity & premium performance."

"For users experienced with car care, Mirror Bright products offer unique performance characteristics that you will find not only appealing, but highly effective when time or space prevents your usual routine."

Re: Meguiar's Mirror Bright - Overview

I like the idea of a simple lineup like this. However, I've got a boatload of stuff I've accumulated over the last few decades. But, I'm wondering how I missed the fact that the detailing spray works on both exteriors and interiors. Now, I'm going to have to add some to my next Amazon order.

Nick- Quickie question...are/is the liquid Polishing Wax the same as paste Polishing Wax, other than one being liquid and vice-versa?

Thanx...

Yes sir! Same great formula as the liquid, just in a paste.

Cool, I'm keen to try the Polishing Wax (as well as the new D166 Cleaner Wax) if/when we receive them down under!

Yes in view of the new D166.
I wonder how the Mirror Bright and D166 compare in cut with the existing products we have been using for years.
Maybe Meguiar's can chime in here.

[davey g-force]

Re: Meguiar's Mirror Bright - Overview

Yeah me too.

The descriptions for the two products sound very similar.

Over in the D166 thread, Nick stated that D166 is the superior in terms of cut and durability.

What we need is someone to do a side-by-side test & review! :p

Re: Meguiar's Mirror Bright - Overview

I know I asked this of the Ultimate Wheel cleaner, but since I have a bottle of it already, can the Mirror Bright wheel cleaner be used to decon paint? It's safe for painted wheels so it's not a far stretch to think that it could, but I wanted to ask before trying it out. I've got a severely neglected white 1998 explorer that I recently purchased. The Mirror Bright wheel cleaner worked great on the wheels.

Hi WhiteLX,

We do not recommend using our Mirror Bright Wheel Cleaner or any of our other wheel cleaners for applications other than wheels. We know and understand other products use similar color changing/iron reacting chemistry for applications other than wheels, but Mirror Bright Wheel Cleaner is designed just for wheels. Keep in mind with any product which uses this color changing ingredient, that color changing ingredient could be one of many other ingredients in the formulation, and even though the color changing ingredient is widely known for it's effective yet safe cleaning ability on a wide array of surfaces, the other ingredients included in the formulation may be geared towards a more specific application like wheels, to help with all sorts of variables in performance. Those ingredients geared towards a more specific application may or may not work well or be safe for certain surfaces.

Hope this helps.

Nick

The polishing / abrasive properties of the polishing wax would be so mild that you'd have to polish it every two weeks for the next 10 or more years to make any difference to your clear coat at all, especially if you're doing it by hand.

Having said that, why would you want to do it every two weeks? If you want to apply something that often, I'd be using a non-cleaner wax like ULW or even a spray wax like D156.

And yes, UFF over the Mirror Bright Polishing Wax will be fine.

Apologies. In that case, you should be fine!
