Are you a 100% Meguiars user?

[GMZ]

Id say I am a 80%-90% Megs user. Ive only been "car-crazy" for about a month or so, so I had some residual products. I use Armor-All Extreme Tire Shine Gel. Had a sample of it and liked it. Easy to put on, not very glossy. Like tanning lotion instead of tanning oil? I really dislike the glossy tire stuff, so this one really suits me. A nice easy "ketsup" type squeeze bottle too. Like it alot. I use regular white cotton bath towels to dry my car with, although thats just because Ive been too lazy to go out and get a Water Magnet! For glass I just dry it with the towel like its part of the car then buff out any spots with a crappy MF towel I got, works for me. I use, DC1,2, NXT QD, Liquid Wax, Easy Applicator Pads, High Tech Applicator Pads for the wheels and "less clean" trim, a MF I got with my Smooth Surface Clay Kit (which is great btw!) and a Ultra Plush Super Terry (?) for my final wipe. Thats about it for now, more to come soon though! Summer is here in San Diego! Need to enjoy it before I move to rainy Virginia Beach
Oh, and GC car wash too!

I use 90 % of the products I use chamos and terry towels from BJ's

[stangster]

95% Megs user. The only things that are not are microfiber towels (although I use mostly Meguiars) and wash mits.

[rosenberry]

im about 50% almost all of the stuff i buy is from a meguiars dealer aka dealergoodies.com and they also sell auto magic products. im sure after the detailing class in mechanicsburg will have me changing some of my supplies.
b.t.w dealergoodies doesnt do retail sales i guess thats one of the pluses of having a detailing business. you can get stuff a little cheaper

[MotorcycleDetailing]

99.99....the only product I use that isn't meg's is a all metal polish that comes in a can with the cloth and paste in one. All u do is break/rip of a couple of inchs and polish exhusts/air filter covers/forks/chrome/handle bars ect.....

Everything else is Meg's.

I voted for 100% even though I'm about 95%. For paint care I only use Meguiars stuff. The only non Meg's stuff is Lexol Leather care. Meg's stuff might be just as good, but I've had the Lexol stuff for about 6 years and it has always been good so I haven't strayed.

Meg's stuff:

NXT Tech Wax
NXT Tech Protect
Quik Detailer
#80
#83
#82
#26
#7
#21
8006
9006
7006
High Endurance Tire
Quick Clay
NXT Wash
Microfiber Towels
Terry Towels
Water Magnets
Chenille Sponge

Probably other stuff that I can't remember.

About 50% of my kit is Megs, maybe a little less than that. I have kit from a wide variety of manufacturers most infact, other than Zymol which I cannot afford at the moment!

I used to use solely the Meguiars #80-series polishes when I got my PC.. First tried out the Poorboys SSR range but then switched back to Megs, then tried out Menzerna and I have to say I am more impressed with the Menzerna polishes (Power Gloss, Intensive Polish [PO91L & PO85RD3.01], Final Finish) than the Megs ones - I find the break down faster and work faster, espeically on harder paint and the Power Gloss can be used by PC while the aggressive Megs compounds cannot. Thats not to say I dont like the #80-series polishes anymore, I do, and keep #83 and #80 in my collection - espeically then #80 as its one of my fav products.

As for glazes, I have tried a few and like all of them on whole, but #7 remains my glaze of choice. I buy it in 64oz bottles because I use so much of it!

The vast majoirty of my mf towels are Megs, though I'm slowly switching over to 50/50 Megs/Pakshak. My mitts are Megs Lambswool.

All the shampoos I use regulalrly are Megs (Hyper Wash and #62) as you cannot beat them on value.

All my clays are Megs (mild and aggressive).

For LSPs, I have a huge mix. Megs features - #16 and #26, I love both as they are just such great value for money. #26 compliments #7 beautifully on dark colours. Also have Pinnacle, Poorboys, Menzerna, 1Z, Chemical Guys, Collinite and Autoglym in my LSP collection...

[35th Anniversary SS]

Id say 85-90% for me.

The things I use that are not Megs are:

-MF towels (I do have a few Megs brand though)

-Zymol Leather Cleaner and Conditioner. I love this stuff though I have vowed to try Megs after my current stash of Zymol is gone. Its gonna be hard though.

-Pinacle Poly Clay. I do have a couple bars of Megs, but found the Pinacle on a nice sale so grabbed some.

-Stoner glass cleaner. Ive been using this stuff for a long time and its really great stuff, and priced right.

-Flitz metal polish. Although its non-abrasive it works really good on all metals.

Other then those things.. everything else is Megs. Even my DA, G100.

**Ive heard NXT glass cleaner is better then Stoners? Might have to try it.**

Right now, for consumable products like wax, polish, etc, I'm mostly Meguiar's. The non-consumables, i.e. PC, pads, etc. are not Meg's. I found this site and ADS after I got that stuff.

Meg's
--------
DACP, Speed Glaze, NXT liquid wax, Detailer glass cleaner concentrate, Hyper Dressing, Quick Wax, Int/Ext quick detailer, Gold Class soap, Gold Class leather cleaner/conditioner, Deep Crystal #1 and #2 (haven't actually used these yet)
3 water magnets
Chenille sponge and mitts
Various brushes
Hotshine liquid spray

Non-Megs
---------
Stoner's Invisible Glass
Lexol leather conditioner
No Touch tire spray
PC plus Lake Country pads
Foamgun (this rocks!!!!)

As I finish the Lexol and Stoner's, I'll replace them with Meg's products. My only complaint about Meg's is that it's very tough to find a local store with a good variety of Megs...even the consumer level stuff. I had to order a bunch of stuff at ADS. I don't mind that but it would be nice if Meguiar's could get local stores to carry more variety....especially the towels and washing tools.

[DysA32]

about 75 - 80% meguiars products on my car and clients cars

Just about everything I use is meguiars except the stuff they dont make, like buckets and a portable vaccum and stuff like that.

[Krazy Ken]

90% Meguiars.
I use Rain-X on the glass because Meguiars doesnt make a comparable product.
