So I was cleaning out my wash bay here at work and found a box stashed away with these in it. I don't have any experience with these products so I have no idea if it's good stuff or not. They've had to been there for years. Think they're still good? There all about 50-75% full and haven't frozen or anything.

Those my friend are some great products, what a find!! :props:

Read their use and instructions before proceeding....:dblthumb2:
 
I had received a free sample of the Final Inspection and thought that it was some of the best QD that I had ever tried.

I bought a rotary off of Craigslist that came with a 1/2 gallon of the #20 and it had separated and the 2 parts wouldn't mix back together. With a quick shake just before application however it still seemed to provide adequate protection.

The #7 IMO is just a super product to have on hand. Nice find!! Let us know if it's any good still.
 
Those products are no longer any good. Please send them to me for proper disposal.

He is trying to lead you astray! DO NOT LISTEN TO WHAT HE IS TELLING YOU! :nomore:













Send them to me instead. :coolgleam: At least the #34 and #7.

I have Single Stage Paint on one of my vehicles, and my dad's truck which is a 4-Door Dually, so yea, I use a lot of #7.

Good score buddy - happy for you! WOOT!

I have some Meg's products that are older than your pics and have never had a problem. In order to save tiresome shaking with a large container, I bent up a piece of heavy wire as a stirrer and chuck it in a drill. Stir or shake 'em up and have at it.
#34 is a clean-finishing detailer and great clay lube.
#7 is my go-to polish, a superb 'moisturizer" for older paints, especially single-stage.
#20 is a wax/sealant hybrid with some moderate cleaning capabilities.

Great find!

:iagree:

#34 is a good clay lube and cleans up nicely as a QD after using a polish. I used it in the late 90's as my go to QD. It doesn't leaves as slick a finish as OIDE or FK425.

I still have an old bottle of #7 in the tool box from years ago. Great stuff for SS paint.
 
Thanks everyone I'll be giving these a try here soon then. I'm really curious about the #7...

Check out Mike P's thread about the restoring vintage single stage paint and the old continental. I think it's in the archives.
 
Feel free to ship them my way if you don't want them. If you don't use them, I will! :D
 
I put hem there for safe keeping and completely forgot about them.
SEND THEM BACK TO ME,NOW!



















J/K Nice Score.:props:
 
Old detailng products, like old detailers. Never get old, they just become historic.
 
#34 is probably the best cleaning quick detailer there is. I assume Top Inspection to be similar. It does not compare to high shine quick detailers in that regard. Maybe a little too watery for my likings as a clay lube, but is a great light general cleaner for computers and TVs ;) #34 is the best QD for removing polish residue.

#7 is also a great product. Mike has the best writeup on it possible!

I have not used the #20 so no opinions.
 
I really like final inspection as well. It leaves a nice finish and is truly spray and wipe and does not streak at all .
 
34 Final Inspection is body shop safe, which means it has no silicones. I had been using Last Touch for quite a while 1:1 as a clay lube, but when I went to tape afterwards, the tape wasn't sticking so great. Somone recommened to me to try 34 as a clay lube and the tape would actually stick afterwards.

It was also suggested to me by someone who works for Meguiars at a detailing class that if you are going to be sanding or buffing, 34 would be a better lube for claying since your not sanding/buffing through a silcone layer.

20 doesn't get enough love in my opinion, I love the stuff, it's very easy to use, removal is breeze, has some cleaning abililty and offers some decent protection.

7 is awesome on to bring back the color on SS paints!
