Just finished using this product, all i have to say is wow.

my hands hurt, the body scratches i was trying to fix were apparently to deep but the scratches around the handle from rings and stuff are all gone.

Secondary note this works awesome as 2000-2005 rim polish not sure about others i have the ss rims. check my album to match yours. anyway i just applied it generously, let sit for 1 min and then buff/rub off. boom the shinny rims appear from below the compound.

buy the meguiars claybar kit from walmart and try it out, you should wash the wax off first then clay it, then wash and wax and polish the car as you usually would, your car will look better than you think now. heres a good read for you about claying. it will make your cars paint look brand new, better than in the pictures

If you use this produce on 6th gen rims it works better if you go with the grain of the rim, so far i'm 70% happy with the job it did on the rims.

If i had a camera i would share with the grain and just globing it on. right now i am doing a comparison of half trunk clay barred and half not. the part that was clay barred i waxed it with the spray on and the wax that came in the mcquires kit

either way, after doing the clay bar... i could feel the difference in the trunk through the microfiber towel.

How many coats of wax do you guys normally put on, never waxed "Jill" before

ive got the meguiars clay bar kit too and it worked great, it took a ton of dirt and contaminants off especially at the bottoms of the doors and the back of the trunk where a lot of junk collects. I didnt have time to wax afterwards, but it looked like it had been waxed and stayed like that for a couple weeks.
