Meguiars Car Cleaning Products

ifraz · February 4, 2003

Help please!

Maguiars has been mentioned in the past as the best car polishing product you can get. :P

But which Maguiars polish do you guys use?

Zee007 · February 4, 2003

I brought back pretty much everyone Meguiars do from the US (as it was so cheap and I didn't know my elbow from my knee) - but any with the canuba wax are ace Ifraz. I can bring some to Brooklands if you wish and you can have a look what they're like - maybe try some? :)

Thanks Zee,

I won't be at Brooklands, but I will be at Donnington.

I'll look out for canuba wax by Maguiar. Is there anywhere on the Internet were I can buy it from? No local shop sell the product.

Ok - hopefully catch up with you at Donny then....

I think Graham Goode do Meguiars don't they and so do Halfords? Or am I imagining it....

Halfords don't, but Graham Goode do.

You can buy online: http://www.meguiars.co.uk/

I use their products and highly recommend them, as I have stated many times before.

Can't say I've ever used this stuff before - but try looking at these previous threads about Zymol as other members have tried this stuff:

True, they do sell them. But wasn't sure if there are other polishes in the Maguiar range that were missing from the original link. ;)

Zymol rocks

I have not polished the car for 6 months and it still beads up like it was done yestarday

imi · February 4, 2003

Zee,

what you reckon to the tree stage process thing?

1. Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner

2. Deep Crystal Polish

Stage 2 of the Deep Crystal System This product is not a wax. It is a pure polish that conditions and nourishes the paint and is the secret to creating an awesome, deep, wet-look shine. 473ml. liquid

3.Deep Crystal Carnauba Wax

Stage 3 of the Deep Crystal System This is the ideal product to protect the dazzling finish you created in Stage 2. This formula delivers tough, long-lasting Carnauba wax protection on all paints. 473 ml. liquid

Your views would be appreciated...

Zymol rocks

Which zymol product did u use, is it that light greeny shampoo stuff?

ricky_is200 · February 4, 2003

I'll probably get lynched for posting this but I read this post on a owners club for a certain german make of car which I thought may be of interest, has some interesting comments on the different between polish and wax and Zymol vs Maguiar.

imi · February 4, 2003

That Zymol is getting a better vote, so i think i'll bob down to Halfords later n get it t try on the weekend.....

Excellent mate - I would try Meguiars - As Johnny will back me up I'm sure, this is the best polish/wax I have used (and I have a large number in my garage I can tell you!)...

But try Zymol - why not - It's worth a go.... :)

Your elbow, well..... it's....... on your arm. :P

And your knee?

Why, ..... it's on your leg.

Greetings all, new member here! Proud new papa of an '92 2.5 twin turbo soarer B) ! She's muh baby, that's why I replied to this particular post.

Personally I use a two coat system. After I have washed the car, I usually use turtle wax extreme cleaning wax to clean up an possible road dirt or oxidation that might have built up since the last wash. As a finishing coat, I use meguire's gold brand.

Something else you might want to try for those quick detailings is the eagle one quick wax, it's great stuff for those in between regualr washes and prior to a road trip or right before a show.
