Well known detailers like Larry Kosilla, Kevin Brown, Jason Kilmer, and Andy Ward have all been fans of Meguiars. Jason Rose (now with Rupes USA) used to work for Meguiars and played a big role in developing some of these compounds and polishes. Even Jim White can be seen reaching for a bottle of M100 in some of his videos when the European compounds just don’t have enough cut.

I’m a big fan of D300 compound. I tend to use it on cars that only suffer from swirl marks and moderate scratches because it’s so user friendly, keeps heat down, and creates very little dust. Out of curiosity, I’ve put it to the test and removed heavy sanding marks from a poorly finished aftermarket paint job, even with a short throw polisher! That’s no joke for such an easy to use product. Interesting new products

About Meguiars

This rich and luxurious two-in-one shampoo and conditioner creates luxurious suds and cleans your car without compromising the paint and detailing on your vehicle. Are any of these products the same as traditional ceramic coatings? No. Think of them more as a spray wax that you can use to boost the protection on your coated vehicle. An SI-02 spray like Hybrid Ceramic Wax should also work well on uncoated vehicles too. Many of the greatest paint correction experts out there prefer to use Meguiars compounds and polishes like M105, M100, M101, and M205. But just like the hobbyist level products from those other companies, there are more efficient options out there. It just so happens that Meguiars offers those too. The family business now manufactures more than 300 different cleaners, polishes, waxes, conditioners, and protectants for homes, cars, boats, trains and planes, and almost every other type of surface.

Many of their products still come in the same plain yellow bottles you see on the dusty shelves of body shops. It’s no surprise that DIY detailers are drawn to the “Super Citrus Yum Yum Wash Goop” that other companies sell. Meguiars tends to focus more on developing and testing the product itself and less on fancy marketing.Another new product that’s been getting a ton of buzz (and some controversy) is Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax. It uses an SI-02 formula (similar to what you’d find in a ceramic coating) and is intended to be sprayed on and rinsed off with water. With so many spray-on ceramic coatings and SI-02 detail sprays hitting the market lately, it’s no secret that Meguiars used the word “ceramic” to jump onto that train. It works so well that many professional detailers will recommend their customers use it to maintain their paint’s finish after paying for a paint correction and even a ceramic coating. They recommend it because it’s readily available, gentle on waxes and sealants, and since it doesn’t leave any waxes or protective polymers behind, it’s also ceramic coating friendly. Once the body of your car is squeaky clean, it’s time to give those tyres a clean - and what better to clean them with than Meguiar’s High Gloss Tyre Protection.

They spent years developing and testing these to offer lots of cut, a great user experience, and the ability to finish down better on soft paint. Being a fan of their existing polishes, I’m really looking forward to trying this duo out. One of those products is their Gold Class Car Wash. You might be surprised by this because it’s easily found on the shelves of auto parts stores and big box stores. The reality is that it simply works.Many people turn to companies like Chemical Guys and Adam’s Polishes when they want to take care of their car as a hobby. These two companies have done a great job of marketing, branding, and getting their products in front of the average car guy.
