I was just wondering how many of you use just meguiars products only ?
 
You probably won't find many. While using one product line does simplify things quite a bit, in my opinion you're selling yourself short in finding better products that work for specific applications. I don't think there is one company that makes the best product for everything.
 
I agree Meguairs has some good products I really like getting their stuff in bulk it's cheaper and works just as good as more expensive brands. I also like Menzerna and Blackfire and etc........

I agree for simple items like APC I like theirs, as well as if you're a fan of their compounds and polished. I also like their vinyl cleaner combo M39/M40. You just have to know how to separate their basic items i.e. most that are found at Autozone, and their professional or detailer's line which are legitimate products.
 
Limiting your self too one product IMO is not a good thing really since there are some many kinds of paints and interiors. I have not found one companies products to be the be all product line. I use about 10 different brands of product for exterior and interior.
 
I use 105, 205, vinyl and rubber cleaner conditioner, glass cleaner and apc. Looking to get a good aio as well.

I like their products, almost all are good or great and some are almst a must have or top of the category. Not really any bad products I can think of right now that they offer.

The reason I like their products over other's is what you get for what you spend. They offer a lot of products in gallon sizes for not a lot of money.

I have yet to find a real quality exterior trim sealant. I use their all season dressing which is good for about a month before I need to put it back on again and for the money I would rather get opti-bond.

The only things I don't use Meguiars for is waxing, sealing and upholstery cleaning.

But overall they offer the best most vast selection out of any company I can think of.
 
M105/M205 has proven to be a great starter combo, along with their MF kit. Currently, this is my setup. Although my cart is quite full with other items now. IE: Menzerna, Wolfgang, still looking at Blackfire, etc.

Meguiar's makes quality products, although there are many other companies that make comparable, or better, products for your money.
 
I would say I mostly use Meguiars products. I have almost all of their Detailers line products. I certainly have several other brands that I use but Meg's makes up the majority of my collection.
 
I used to be all Meguiars until I found a place called "Autogeek".

Have you tried Ultima Tire and Trim Guard yet?
 
Yes I have. Currently my favorite but the cost gets in the way.

I use it for high end detailing and my own car, but not for the quick details.
 
I don't think that by limiting yourself to just Meguiar's products you would be doing yourself any disservice to the end result. They make fine products and Mike Phillips used them exclusively when he was employed by Barry, and we all know how he can turn coal into diamonds (yes, lots of heat and pressure - Shhhh, it's Mike's secret).

In my opinion, trying new brands and products is half the fun, and there are some great, specialized companies out there. Think Menzerna for polishes, Chemical Guys for soaps (they really are not bad), Tuff Shine for tire cleaner, Lake Country for pads, etc. Do a little (or a lot) of research for every product you want to use and go from there.
 
Most would agree that if you could only use one car care company, Megs would easily fit the bill.

Having said that, I think variety is good...to a point... at which time you can easily find yourself left with 57 varieties of every type of product which means you never will hone in on a perfecting a "system", and you'll just be floundering in a sea of debt with boxes of unused products.
 
Was also a die-hard meguiars fan, but have been experimenting with a few other brands lately like chemical guys, auto finesse, menzerna-something i should have done a long time ago!
 
I do use a lot of Maquires products but not all.
Does anyone know where you can buy Maguires All Wheel Cleaner in bulk ?
Thanks in advance for the reply !

Same here! I was using Meguiars as my go to products for a long time. Then I found Auto Geek and my wallet hasn't been the same. I started researching and experimenting with different products/ tools to see whats working. But I do like Meguiars for APC, Wax, Polish & Compound.
 
100%? Nope, but I've found that most of Meguiar's products fill my needs very well.

Nowadays: Yes...On a few of my vehicles.

And since you ask:
How about yourself, Denali2011?

I do the same thing. IMO for the price and performance Megs ASD is a winner for trim and tires on the less expensive details. I test almost all my products on my daily driven, parked outside, work car and ASD will last about a month on tires and trim, which is better than some more expensive products I have tried.
