While I am not a fan of sealants, I don't mind a hybrid wax though. I am more of a Carnuba wax person and while I appreciate the durability of Collinites, I prefer waxes from Dodo Juice and Victoria Wax. Will any of the waxes from Meguiar's offer a good Carnuba look? Meg's generally makes good...

Thanks David. I will try the thicker pads on my rotary next.

Are you suggesting that Meg's polishes should be used with Meg's pads and Scholl polishes with Scholl pads and so forth?

Absolutely on my mind and trying to decide between the Meg's DA, PC, GG and the Flex 3401 at the moment. Can't figure out what's best for somebody like me who does maybe 10 cars a year. Just a hobby, nor a pro.

Thanks Mike. I was indeed talking about LCHT pads on a rotary as I don't have a DA.

Thanks David. I know we discussed this a while back but just wanted to confirm what should be the preference on a rotary - 7/8" or 1.25" ?

Thanks Mike. I ordered some M205 to try. Will use it and then decide about the other Meg's polishes. I already finished a bottle of Optimum Hyper Compound, loved working with it and ordered some Polish II from them and was disappointed. I will give their Hyper polish a try and the Wolfgang Uber...

Thanks Mike. I will look those up. Is there anything between M105/M101 and M205 or these can be made to cut at different levels? Sorry I am coming straight from the DAT bus and eager to get on the SMAT bus :)

I work with a rotary and foam pads, stay away from wool being a weekend warrior. I have tried M105 a few times, didn't like it one bit and it could be that it is designed to be used with wool pads. I made the switch to DAT compounds from Scholl and Menzerna and they have been working well for...

Richy - great choice of polishes and pads and great results. How do you rate Carpro Reflect compared toM205? I am not getting great results with Reflect probably because the abrasives diminish too quickly.

One think I like about the Collinite brand is they have never come out with an improved version of their waxes unlike the boutique brands that roll out limited edition waxes every week.

Mother of god. That's way too much information for my tiny brain Bob. Polymers break down to become soil silicates? That sounds like they are best avoided. Bob, can I ask you what wax or sealant do you use on your car? I am very interested in that product :)

Chemical Guys Hose Free Eco Wash. I love ONR but HFE can clean a really dirty car if you have water restrictions.

After going through a long phase of sealants and durable waxes, I am now enjoying show waxes at the moment (Bouncer's Capture the Rapture, Victoria's Red Concours Wax etc.). However, most people who are veterans with show waxes here and other forums recommend to use their respective QD after...

+ 1 to that. i just finished a 3 month test with Sonax PNS, BDS, Sonax Hybrid NPT and Sonax Nano Paint Protect Coating. There is a bit of a learning curve but all the products are exceptional.

Bouncers Capture the Rapture is the only show wax I have used so far and it is wet and oily. A stark contrast to the so called durable waxes out here.

Thank you for sharing this. Bob, I appreciate your responses and consider you a smart person. Unfortunately, I am not very bright. Are you just bring sarcastic that it's a good wax or are you criticizing it for the hand application process? I have no idea how to wax with bare hands to be honest.

Any thoughts on this wax as I am considering buying it. Durability is not an issue as I will add a coat of a durable sealant underneath. It is rated very highly on some forums for it's unique wet look. Any thoughts?

Ok thanks. So is the Duragloss stuff different and capable of cross linking?
