You're not really late to the party Merlin, still tons of experimentation going on. I've used D166 on white and orange CCS pads, Meg's microfiber cutting pad, and a synthetic wool pad. I've been on Meguiar's and Porter Cable DA's or a Flex forced rotation, with soft and hard clear coat paints. And of course I've gotten ever varying results. The long and short of it is, I like it better than 151, and I've been a big 151 fan for years. If longevity plays out to be as good as advertised, that's the big selling point for me.
Try it, and play with it, you'll like it.

Using the DA Polisher on a car with good paint and light to moderate swirls, which would be the preferred foam pad/disc to use Red, Yellow or Black?
Thanks,

Hi Vettefan,
Based on your description of the vehicles condition, our Soft Buff DA Yellow Foam Disc would likely be the best pad for using D166. Keep in mind this is a Cleaner/Wax, so you should not expect 90% defect removal in most cases. Whenever a person uses a one step cleaner wax, their goals & expectations should be set appropriately. Even though this is Meguiar's most aggressive cutting & most durable one step cleaner wax we currently offer, this is not a replacement to a multi step process with a dedicated compound, finishing polish, and protectant.

How different is it from M66?
Hey guys,
last week I had a one on one training with Mike Stoops in Irvine and we played with D166. The product is incredible! Fast cut, incredible finish, great protection and impressive water beading! We had a rental car, black Nissan Versa, with quite touch sensitive paint. Using DA Microfiber Correction System, that I love, on a DA polisher created lots of haze, so we gave D166 a try.
Below you can find our video introducing some of 2018 new products and showing and describing results with D166.https://www.facebook.com/Meguiars.cz...8295496629532/

Was sent over a bottle to review from the folks at Autogeek last year and finally got to use it.
Really nice AIO to work with. Easy wipe off considering I left the wax on the painted surface until the car was done. It corrects very well and seems versatile with every pad combination I tested it with.
Took out these defects with a microfiber cutting pad on this hard corvette paint.
Finished the paint using the microfiber finishing pads which gave good cut and good gloss.
