I'm not 100% sure if this is the right place to be asking but I've searched and cannot find much about this. Locally it is hard to find some decent detailing stuff and I don't have the money to drop alot at Autogeek or I would.

Has anyone used this product before? Opinions?

I haven't used that product. If you're looking for reasonably priced but very effective detailing products you might want to look into the Duragloss line of products. You can purchase them from AG, DG direct or locally. Carquest usually has many in stock and NAPA can get them for you in 24 hrs.
 
You can't post that link here. If you can't find anything decent locally...you should be able to find products as decent as that at Target or Wal-Mart.
 
Im sure it's decent, I haven't used it. I think it's part of their "1,2,3," system. If I was going to use that, I would follow the system to get the best results. If I was just looking for an OTC sealant, I would get one from Meguiars.
 
Ski, I'll have to look into duragloss.I have a napa right down the street from me.

Setec- Target has nothing by me and walmat has minimal stuff sadly.

I'm just looking for a decent sealer, something cheap, its just for my GF's car. I'm out of sealer so yea.

This product (a polish) is Step 2 of: The Ultimate Wax System (UWS) by Mother's.
This UWS is, IMO, Mother's version of:
Meguiar's Deep Crystal 3 Step System...wherein Step 2 is also a polish.

According to Mother's marketers: You’ll be glad you got into the "Gold-rush".

I was just going to ask which one you would recommend lol.
 
So if I was to look for decent products that can be bought/ordered locally what would you guys recomend? All my stuff has to be done by hand. My paint could use a good like swirl remover, its not too bad but could be better. I'm good wax wise but for a sealee and other stuff I need. I'm open to suggestions :)
 
Meguiar's Ultimate line is very good.
Some auto parts stores actually carries some Meguiar's Mirror Glaze line as well.
 
I gotta check to see if the walmart still has Megs "pro" line stuff still. I'd go for the glaze in that case
 
Meguiars Ultimate Line man. Its widely available otc. Walmart, autozone, target almost any national retailer. The ultimate wax is a great long term sealant.
 
So heres what I'm thinking for a simple and cheap setup for now. I'll regroup after winter basically.
Start with this-
Meguiar's Ultimate Polish: Automotive : Walmart.com

Then go to this-
Meguiars M0716 Show Car Glaze - 16oz.: Automotive : Walmart.com

Then finish off with a wax of some sort, Havent decided on which one yet.

I left out the clay bar part, I clay'd the car not too long ago so I'm not too worried about it.

Now with the polish, would it be able to be done by hand? Do I really need to do it? My paints not TERRIBLE by any means, its pretty damn good. so I'm almost thinking I'll be safe with just doing the glaze and a good wax?
 
You have a CC vehicle, correct? If so just use the Ultimate Polish and go to your wax, forget the glaze.
 
CC= Clear coat correct? If so, yes. Its a 2000 jeep xj Black. My biggest problem is that I dont have any machine tools, its all done by hand so im afraid that polish will fight me.

Trust me, it will fight you less than #7.
 
Show car glaze is a real pain to use, smears takes a long time to remove. Hides imperfections and darkens paint but the effects don't last very long, maybe up to a week. I have a bottle and I rarely use it because I feel it's not worth the time and effort.
 
Ok thats good to know guys, thanks.

So do you guys think I should be good with going with the ultimate polish and then the gold class wax? I'm gonna assume the paste wax will be easier to hand apply than the liquid?
 
The liquid wax will be easier to use. I haven't used those Ultimate waxes, but I doubt you will see much difference in longevity between the liquid and the paste, so I'd just use the liquid.
