Is there anywhere I can find some info about Megs #38 trim dressing? I cant find it on their website or in the latest catalog.
TIA

Hi TeamVegas,
Maybe you have an old catalog?
If so, just call our Customer Care Hotline and 1-800-347-5700 and request one.
Just a note: If you like Gold Class Trim Detailer, or Gold Class Endurance Tire Protectant, you will love this product.
I couldn't find it on our website, I'll send an e-mail out to make sure it is included in the future.

I will look at page 13 when I get home but I am pretty sure that I didnt see it. I ordered some anyway and requested a catalog last week. I recieved the catalog yesterday but no product yet. It should be here later this week.
Thanks guys. I love this forum and you are all a great help. I have been on autopia for a while and it is great also. Thanks again.

I have not used #38 on tires yet, but have used #38 on plenty of trim.
#38 compared to GC trim detailer.:
Trim detailer has more shine.
Trim detailer last longer (a wash more, so about a week in the winter)
Shine dies about the same time, but neither look like untreated trim.
#38 compared to Accent detailer:
Accent detailer has more shine.
Accent last longer
Accent is easier to apply because accent comes in a spray can, with adjustable nozzle.
Accent can have different shine level and appearance depending on the surface.
I will apply #38 to a set of tire later in the week and post back.

Thanks, that was a help!
I was able to order #38 thanks to the link you provided. It seems weird that if you call costomer service they say you can't get it anymore because it's discontinued, but I was able to get it with a confirmation through your link. Thanks!

You find Accent is lasting longer on trim than M-38 Tire and Trim Dressing?
Where and when did you get your Accent?
This is a fairly new product, a lot of people don't even know it exists! I sent out about a half a dozen samples last month but never heard anything back from the people I sent samples to...

I'm glad to hear that #38 hasn't been discontinued. Otherwise I was going to find a few more left over bottles of it and stock horde it :) . I love it, I applied it to some trim on my car many many months ago and it is just now looking dull finally. Plus it's the only other thing aside from w dressing that looks right on a particular flat black trim on my car.
I've never heard of accent dressing until reading this as well.

I too never heard of accent. I think I'll stick with the gel only because I always seem to get spray where I don't want it.
Rick how much rain and weather has you trim seen with # 38 on it?

I agree. I think I will stick with the gel for tires. I don't like any of the sprays because they go everywhere. Plus the can just doesn't seem to last as long as the product from a bottle. I would go through a can probably everytime I detailed.
Sticking with Endurance for now...love that grape smell...mmmmm

If you look on the accent dressing bottle it's got the detailer line logo on it, so likely it will be a specialty item that will be somewhat difficult to locate. Thats my guess anyways.
2000, in Arizona more sun than anything, although we are still about a half inch above average on rain for this time of year :p .

Thanks rick,
I was using cold class trim detailer, but after a good rain I would get oilly residue down the body panel. I think I was applying to much or not whipping of the excess. the last time I applied I went very light and an hour or so after I applied I wiped with clean towel however it hasn't rained to test that theory, not that I'm upset about that. ever run into something like that?

Nope can't say I have. The only problem now is it likes to transfer to my car cover. I will probably be back to w dressing for the summer since it will come out much more easily.
