Default An other Bump "Meguiar's....."

Hey..I am off work for a bit so I have been trying some new products...you might have seen my other thread about the Mothers Back to Black.

#1 Bump for the Meguiars "natural shine Vinyl & Rubber Protectant"

#2 Bump for the Meguiar's "Gold Class Rich Leather Cleaner/Conditioner"

#1 I learned today that any product made for Vinyl or Rubber is also safe on plastic.
I have to say this gave the plastic and Dash a great natural shine once buffed..perfect look...not greasy like the Black Magic stuff I used...great Product also has UV protection.

#2 This is the best I have used yet, especial for the middle part of the seat with the holes...doesn't get stuck in there....I sprayed and let it soak then gentley rubbed it in then gave it a slight buff.
Great natural deep black color....not to much shine...but most of all it really seemed to moisturize the leather!

I tried the Gold Class Leather Cleaner wipes this past weekend, and love em. Beautiful job, easy with the wipes, and it only takes like two to do the whole car....

I also cannot rave enough about the Tech Wax 2.0 for the exterior. Best shine I have ever seen, bar none......

i tried using the tech wax, and it was HELL to take off. i definitely need a buffer.

i think for those that don't use a buffer, they should stick to good old cleaner wax from meguiar's. get a really good shine and SUPER easy to wipe off.

maybe the tech wax works great after you cure it for a while. i still got 80% of the bottle left, i'm sure i'll give it another go. plus it smells AMAZING! lol.

Remember apply a thin even coat. Let dry for 20-30 minutes (usually the amt of time for you to cover the whole car) and remove using a back and forth even motion with long strokes (jokes aside) and even pressure and the product was the easiest one i have worked with and removed to this date. IMO it is better and deeper longer lasting shine than the Liquid gold class. Also wait for 12+ hours before you apply a second coat to make sure you covered any missed areas...... JMO and hope it helps

First, thanks for the kudos on the MG. I appreciate it. I used to use Ice as well, but keep in mind that Ice is a polish, not a wax. It still has it's place in my detailing regimen, but not as a final wax....

Also, remember there IS a difference between Tech Wax and Tech Wax 2.0. I am using the 2.0, and it removes very easy. I do not do the whole car at once, but do sections, and really do not let it dry that long.....Amazing shine.....

Didn't realize the Turtle wasn't a wax, I was over a my bosses while he put it on so I assumed.

What wing is that? Is that the GT500 wing?
