Machine for compound, polish, and sealant. Megs DA.

Just spent a few hours on my personal daily driver (Metallic Black Pearl Jeep GC). Tried out 2 of the samples from the detail box, Amerirocks (compound) and Ameridepth (polish). Just wanna say they both are very legit. Used Amerirocks on one panel for some moderate scratches, removed them...

Nanoskin also offers their pads now that seem to have a smaller MF length. I have seen one review in the forum with good results. Can anyone compare to megs?

I use Megs Microfiber System quite frequently. It really does a great job. When shopping around for the best price I have noticed other products out there. Optimum has one pad for 11.99 (autogeek). Chemical Guys has pads in their clearance section for 5.99 that look exactly like the Optimum...

Looks awesome. Love that subaru blue. Have been a fan of the Megs DA microfiber system, hopefully autogeek picks up the nanoskin microbuff system. Any one else use both systems that can compare contrast?

My company has used a cordless RYOBI brand "polisher" for a few years now. It is only useful for throwing on wax quickly. Batteries need to be swapped out every 2 or 3 cars still. As power dwindles the wax goes on thicker sometimes making it more of a hassle than anything. Really only...

Curious to opinions on branding when it comes to products. Everyone that has a website or any type of advertising, do you think it is important to use brand names? For example I have visited numerous websites that use specific brand names, for example, Meguiars Polymer Sealant, Optimum...

You pretty much have their best products. Only thing I would recommend would be Jetseal 109 if you want a sealant, maybe replace XXX.

Coming from the north east I can say the strength of the wash chemicals are double, sometimes triple, in the summer than they are in the winter. A Little hot water and a dash of soap will clean salt off of a car in the winter every time. Chemicals get pretty harsh in the summer when you have...

If this thread keeps up the Food and Drug Administration is going to have to get involved with detailing products haha

Anybody try the "nanoskin shock" ? It is also a spray sealant (same scent and color ironically). I have a small sample that I have not used yet. It retails 9.99 vs 16.99. Nanoskin has not let me down yet.

So the company I work for has a pretty extensive car wash operation as well as, what most of us would say, production detailing. I was a manager for 4 years. I recently stepped down when I graduated college but still detail a few times a week for the cash and joy of the hobby. So these " bosses"...

Was thrown into the joy of detailing a "Work truck" yesterday. Ram Turbo Diesel (sexy if taken care of). Extremely neglected. The outside had not been washed in over two years (black), and in the inside was just caked with grime. I would say an 8/10, 10 being we might as well just burn the...

Have not used megs #21 but have used megs #20 ( polymer sealant). Does offer about 6 months, depending on weather and usage obviously. WDGS offers just as much protection and an even better look in my opinion. If you are not going to put a carnauba wax on top, stick with WDGS. Have used...
