Review: Meguiar's Mirror Bright Shampoo

[c7stingray]

First product review here..

I've received this kit from AG and decided to use the shampoo yesterday,

I regularly try out new products whenever I get a chance and the mirror bright line was on my list, Plus no one did the shampoo review yet..

Bottle: 48oz white plastic bottle that has a nice look and feel to it and it stands out on the shelf rops:
Front

Back

I tested the product on my 2014 C7 Stingray which had about a week's worth of dust:

I did a 2 bucket wash and used the wash wedge which is fun to wash with!
The directions from Meguiars says, use 1 cap of product for each gallon of water. very simple..
The shampoo smelled really good and it had good suds.. lubricity was great..

Rinsed first..

Water flow was really weak and I had to use my Kwazar Venus Pro Super Foamer, I added about 1/2 oz of shampoo in it

Result:

The paint felt really slick and clean, I can't tell if it added extra gloss as the vehicle is already coated with Cquartz and was waxed last week.
I enjoyed using the shampoo and will definitly use it again, If Meguiar's come up with a gallon size and a nice price tag it would be a great shampoo for the professional detailer.:dblthumb2:

Thanks, for the review, and sorry, but I have to ask this...did you wash your chicken, too? Where the heck are those feathers from?

I'm betting on the cat...too bad they don't make Trans Ams anymore, there's a screaming chicken joke in there somewhere...

I could not find a specific review for Meguiars PP365 so I am posting here for the same brand. Yesterday I performed an ipa wipe of my white truck. The finish actually looked good. My wife's Durango has Megs PP365 applied to the hood and fenders. Last night we had rain. So while still dark out, I looked at how the PP365 repelled the rain.....not very well. Once the sun crests the horizon, I will take photos and share.

Here are the photos of the Durango and my truck. My truck had a IPA wipe and is beading water much better than the Megs PP 365 on the Durango. Also the PP 365 is still bleeding off the treated mirrors and trim on both vehicles.

Your post is confusing. So did you use an IPA wipe before or after PP365 was applied.

There is a review section where you can post your review on the product. You could also post on the Meguiar's forum as well. I have had it on my dad's car for 3 months going on 4 with no issues. Beading looks solid.

The PP365 is only on the Durango. My truck only had a ipa wipe. The rain water is beading better after the ipa wipe than with the PP365 on Durango

What was your prep? Bare paint beads water on it's own.

On the Durango I applied the PP 365 about a week ago. Washed the Durango then IPA wipe and then applied PP 365 as directions said to. Maybe I did a wrong step or missed a step

Thanks for photographing the back of the bottle...if I hadn't read the directions with my own eyes, I might not have believed it. "1 glug" per gallon. LOL. They're using Canadian terminology!! Love it.

BTW, informative review. Thanks!

After the PP365 had cured, I used a flashlight to see if I had any high spots and I compared the untreated door reflection with the treated fender reflection and saw that the fender was a little blurry with the flashlight. So I buffed the hood and fenders with a bare CG HEXHAM LOGIC 6 IN BLACK FINISHING PADS and the Megs MT 300 at around 3800-4800 opm
