      Sure! I look at products as "tools" and these are tools I love having in my tool chest. (I think that's an analogy I borrowed from Mike Pennington). I"m not going to use it for everything I buff out but when it's the right tool for the job I'll sure use it.

      I recently used it wrong with foam pads on a 1972 Challenger with single stage paint and in my opinion it worked really well. Keep in mind this system is formulated, designed and intended for use as a "System" on factory baked-on clear coats, not re-paints and not single stage, so if you use it outside of Meguiar's official recommendations be aware of what you're doing and also do a "Test Spot" first and make sure you're getting the results you hope for and expect.

      If you look closely, the paint on the passenger side fender is clear and glossy, that's because it was repainted with a basecoat/clearcoat system, the rest of the car has an older single stage paint that has dulled from oxidation and lack of any regular maintenance.

      One of my goals was to maximize the gloss and clarity of the single stage paint surrounding the passenger fender so the car would have a uniform, clear, high gloss appearance.

      After - The Driver's side hood is now as clear and glossy as the clear coated fender.




      We'll have a class on Sunday at DetailFest showcasing the new DA Microfiber Correction System with the help of Meguiar's staff and Joe Fernandez aka Superior Shine who is one of our guest Pro Detailers this year.

          I'm considering opening up my home to you to completely go over the new MF system, and be available for any questions you may have. I have virtually every tool to use these pads with(G100, G110v2, Griot's DA, Griot's 3" DA, Metabo 3" DA, Flex DA). And a nice selection of pads to use. I will need to order some 6" pads to play with on the Flex, as I'm pretty much out of those. But have a pretty decent amount of the 5.5" and 3" pads.

          I'm not sure if I want to host an actual class at my home, if I do, we'll have to keep the attendance low. But am not opposed to some 1 on 1 training at different times.

          So if this would be something you're interested in, please let me know. If nobody speaks up, then this idea goes out the window.
