Default After some new polish? This gear is the nuts!

Just spent 4 hours polishing my black mica WRX with my new Meguiars stuff. Its a long job but the finish is absolutely awesome. There are no swirl marks or residues etc and it really brings out the gold fleck in the paint.

I did a 4 stage detail!:

1. Clay bar
2. Deep crystal system paint cleaner
3. Deep crystal system polish
4. Gold class clear coat liquid car wax

I've tried everything in the past from Turtlewax to Zymol and Auto Glymm but this is the best stuff ever!

I've got no link to the stuff, just wanted to spread the word to fellow Scoobynetters so that mine isn't the single most sparkliest Scoob in Britain!!

Good workout too! Got arms like Popeye now!

I used Meguiars clay on my White wagon - amazing!!

So easy to use and fetched off all the crap and tar - I swear it's the first time I've seen a white car shine lol

I washed, used the clay bar then protected with Mer polish.

I can't recommend it enough, awesome

And if it's good on white, then it will be better on everything else!

There clay block system is stunning. They also have a 4 stage process. Its amazing that the clay bar keeps pulling dirt out the paint even after 3-4 washes!

Tell me abut it, we've got a Cherry Tree in the front garden which overhangs the drive - unfortunately it seems to attract the local pigeon club who then all seem to get the sh*** - quite often all over which ever car is parked under it.
