    Best polish ever!

    Ok guys, ive been looking around trying to decide what polishes and/or waxes to use as the time was coming up for the dreading full polish. Ive been reading up on some previous forums and decided to go with the Meguiars range.

    -First I used the Meguiars ScratchX on the small scatches
    -Then did panel by panel with the Meguiars quik clay and quick detailer for lube (comes in a kit)
    -Wiped lube off with a 100% cotton Towel and waited to dry
    -Finally used the Meguiars NXT Generation Tech Wax in liquid form.

    I cant believe how good it came up! It took all of about 3 hours but was so well worth it. Came up like glass and is now shinier than ever. Definately recommended to everyone thinking of doing a full wax/polish. Hope this helps anyone in the future!

    3 hours to do the whole thing? I only got hald of my car done in 3 hours and that was with clay, polish and wax.

    Good work. Did you do it by hand or with a polisher?

    I have used their product as well the clay and tech wax too.. the best in wax market I have used so far.
    I found Super Resin Polish by auto glym, similar to megire scratch X but 10 times better, honestly.

    Was helping a friend, polishing his black car with scratch X but it was so hard to polish off, we ended up using the super resin polish all over again. Clear difference !!! I think they are similar price too.

    Also used Meguiare's clearner clay (the Big red tub) . RUBISH... left dust particles at the end. Nothing beats tech wax, and I love the smell of it.

    Yeah did it by hand, my car wasnt badly scratched before doing it though. Only had to use the scatchx on the bonnet and front L/H quarter panel. O and it only cost $75 all up. Not too bad for a show room finish! Ill post some photos when the weather clears up (if ever that is).

    Mothers clay I found great.

    Meguires polish (crystal something it was called) was crap! I wanna re-do it.

    What is it with jazz blue and bird ****. They just love my car when ever it has been cleaned.

    Wow man you got yourseld a bargin... $75 is not bad at all !!! Just the clay and tech wax. I paid $73.

    Since we use the same product I want to convince you to use super resin polish, I was alreayd happy with the tech wax but SRP just brought it up to a different level. I am willing to give you my old bottle.. still have a few good drops.

    If feels so nice driving a a freshly waxed car huh.

    Im yet to take it for a drive! Its been raining for the last five days. starting to clear up this arvo so ill be taking it for a spin then. I think i know the stuff your talking about. I was half way between the two. O and the $75 didnt include the scratchX. I had that already. Forgot to mention that before. Still a good price with cotton hand towel and adapter pads!

    I tell you what though, it wasnt an easy job! Alot of wipe on, wipe off, wipe on, wipe off!
