    chrome plated plastic. easy to swirl. hard to remove

    Have you tried a product like Meguiar's Ultimate Polish? I'm thinking that may help since it's SMAT based where as ScratchX 1.0 is DAT (I believe). If not something like plastx may also help since it's meant for plastic.

    Paint polishes on headlight????

    I think each car really varies in regards to headlights marring. On my 2014 Mercedes C250 I can marr/swirl the headlights with M205 on a black finishing pad. But on my grandmother's 1999 Toyota Corolla I use UC on a 3" MF cutting disk and get a perfectly clear light after. So just like paint, it...

    Will a Cheap Polisher Like this work for stains and shining/Cleaning?

    I think what your asking is will the polisher replace you having to use a wash mitt or brush during the wash. And if that's the case then no it won't serve that purpose. You still need to wash the car with 2 buckets and quality wash media. Then clay the car and use a dual action polisher with...

    Are dedicated wheel sealants worth the time/money

    He refers to freshly dressed tires so I'm thinking he got confused and thought it was about tire coatings like Tuff Shine

    How to restore the plastic around my truck?

    Maybe that's what I'm doing wrong. I'm scrubbing it down before with APC then wiping with IPA before Ultimate Black. But it might be because it's on my rear "diffuser" so it gets dirty quickly with all the rear tires being so close.

    How to restore the plastic around my truck?

    You mean Meguiar's Ultimate Black? or Mothers Back to Black? I've only used the Meguiar's and honestly I think it's alright but nothing that will last over 2 weeks, even in dry SoCal weather.

    Whats the proper way to clean/maintain your wash mitt?

    Yeah I should've pointed out that I do also use tide free and clear with the hottest setting on the washing machine but dry on low. Always a clean pure white mitt again (Meg's Wash Mitt) even if it got extremely dirty from lower rocker panels.

    Whats the proper way to clean/maintain your wash mitt?

    What I do is after every wash, I will wring all soap out and blast it with the hose to make sure that no grit is lodged in the fibers while it sat in the bucket after my final panel. Other than that, I tend to treat mine like my towels and wash it after every use then dry in the drying machine...

    Please forgive me If covered. Wax safe for plastic

    Meguiar's Ultimate LIQUID Was wont stain. The paste version may though as they say that the ingredients that make it a paste might stain plastic.

    Official Meguiar's Crew - Fanatics and Chat Thread

    Why did I not see this before!?!? This would so describe me as I'm probably 95%+ Meguiar's. Dad always taught me using their stuff and just so happens that they are 20 minutes away from me. So that's where I've learned a lot of what I know now. Always the first brand I recommend and now all my...

    Subaru BRZ: Plastidip / Clearbra Removal & Detail

    Really? Wasn't aware of that. Should I be concerned even if I'm rinsing every minute or so while I work?

    Up Close & Personal: SONAX Wheel Cleaner PLUS *NEW*

    Congrats Nick on getting married! My question would is how well does this cut through extremely baked on brake dust in comparison to something like Wheel Brightener? I ask because my friend has some stubborn spots/stains of brake dust that the original full effect couldn't remove. These...

    Subaru BRZ: Plastidip / Clearbra Removal & Detail

    Shame that plastidip tends to get a bad rap because so many people get lazy and fail to properly mask, or spray adequate amount of layers that allow for proper peeling. But you guys did a really good job on cleaning it up. Not sure what cleaner your using but in my experience, Tarminator seems...

    Help with Einszett Gummi Pfledge

    I have this problem with my C250 all the time. Best thing to do is make sure you really really dry those things after a wash. But once they are there, I've had success with something like Meguiar's #40 or Natural Shine on a microfiber and just working it into the surface till they're mostly gone.

    A Foam Pad cleaner from Meguiar's you should try out

    I really do like this stuff. I got the 4oz size in my Dynacone wheel kit but love using it on all types of foam pads. Gets the pads feeling very clean with a sort of new feeling that is restored.

    How abrasive is a typical glaze?

    Then would you classify EcoSmart as a abrasive? After all, cg did say in one video that it has kaolin clay in it.

    Anyone liking the Meg's DA power system?

    I think I would really love mine if I had a decent drill. Unfortunately I only have a cordless drill and a very underpowered one at that. But once I bought my G110 v2, I couldn't justify buying a new drill just for the DAPS. Regardless, it's still nicely executed on Meguiar's part.
