Re: non-meguiars product that you use

I use Purple Power since it's really cheap and I can buy it in five gallon buckets. My microfibers are half SS and half ADS brand towels. Other than that, I use a California water blade and the Absorber.

Re: non-meguiars product that you use

2 products as I can't find NXT window wash, use Eagle One, and Eagle One all tire/wheel cleaner ONLY to clean the tires, then lovingly use HRAWC for the wheels. Oh....use Costco MF/Terry cloths for misc and use Meguiars MF for paint. Other than that, all Meguiars products. My next order is to try some window cleaner from the detailer line as well as APC+.

Yup, skip right over the NXT glass cleaner. Its unreal but the detailer line is even better!

Re: non-meguiars product that you use

I have tried many other products with mixed results. On the higher end, Klasse AIO is very good in my opinion.(very little product needed to produce very good results, but I try to follow it up with a good wax to make the paint "pop") Finish Fast interior dressing has a nice smell and satin finish, but that has been replaced with Mequires QID. Poorboys Spray and Gloss is my favorite QD. I have tried Griot's Garage products and they are good but pricey. Meguiars Spray Wax is great to add a quick shine.

Re: non-meguiars product that you use

I use a lot of non-meguiar's products :

- Menzerna
- Wolfgang
- Pinnacle
- Poorboys
- Dodojuice
And so on...

The reason I use different products is simple : A befriended Meguiar's dealer sells a lot of other brands in his shop and I get to test different brands once in a while . And some products end up in my detailing collection Last week I did a black Audi S4 (didn't post it here, because there were no Meg's used on it ), didn't get the results I wanted with Meg's or Poorboys, got hold of Menzerna Final Finish, presto! A deep glossy finish without buffermarks with a rotary, didn't have to finish with a DA

Audi before


Audi after (with Menzerna )


I still use a lot of Meg's though, don't worry

Re: non-meguiars product that you use

Target Vroom Microfibers for interior.
On occasion I used to use AA orange wipes when my interior got nasty usually after the winter. During the summer, up keep is done with quick detailer than every few months a nice coat of NXT protect.
Pre-Winter I coat the truck with Klass SG. I put a heavy coat on since it gets rock hard and stays on all winter. Driving 200 miles north into the mountains every weekend to snowmobile doesnt allow me time enough to wash the truck much in the winter.

Re: non-meguiars product that you use

The only non-meg's stuff I use are Menzerna 106FF & SIP. Everything else is Meguiar's!

Re: non-meguiars product that you use

I forgot about these two:

The absorber
The california drying towel.

Re: non-meguiars product that you use

One thing I found this weekend that I was actually very impressed with was the Vroom Microfiber drying towels from Target. They were on sale for 2 for 8 dollars so I bought them out. They work great for drying our Labrador retrievers after they swim too.

All Meg's except Mother's Back to Black, which is getting replaced by Meg's #40 when it runs out.
