Default HAD IT with Meguiar's...

I've had it with Meguiar's. I'm tired of over paying for crappy products. Gives an OKAY shine and is smooth, but doesn't take out fine scratches/swirls how I feel it should. Switching to Turtle Wax products. Already have a bottle of TW Express Shine for my show cars.

Only Meguair's product I will continue to use, is Scratch-X 2.0, because it works VERY well on the black trunk panel on 5th Gen's.

Well what products were you trying to remove swirls with.. Wax will never remove swirls, might fill them a bit but not much. I like some of Meguiars professional detailer line of products and some of there professional mirror glaze compound and polishes but thats it. There are so many other companies out there with better products. I think the consumer Meguiars isnt that great, over hyped because of its name.

I use the professional line of products and they perform well with my porter cable DA buffer. I love the NXT 2.0 wax (even though it's not part of the professional line up)
