Couldnt wait to use my #16 *pics*

I got my can of #16 yesterday. I just detailed my truck last weekend so I was going to wait a month or two before I tried out the #16. Well I couldnt resist. When I got home from work I washed my truck and put some #16 on it. I thought I was putting in on thin but it was still hard to get off. The sun was going down so I wasnt able to get any good sunlight pics. I'm happy with the results. It looks really wet.

Thanks. I told myself a couple of months ago that I was going to quit being so OCD about my truck. I got rid of a lot of my supply. I was just going to keep my Optimum Compound and Polish, P21s and IW845. When I saw the thread about the #16 in stock I had to get a can. I ordered some new pads the other day along with some Black Wow, Optimum Instant Detailer and PB White Diamond. I cant stop buying. Everytime I see something new I gotta get it.

#16 is great if you apply it right. I simply give my applicator a quick mist of QD and then dab it in the tin. My first experience with it was the smear a bunch on the applicator so you can see it when your putting it on, NOT RECOMMENDED. When I use #16 I can barely see where I've been. Wait 2hrs and wipe off like a dream. Beads water like no tomorrow.

Blank WOW is great stuff. White Diamond separates the boys from the men. You will never stop buying products as long as you visit this section.

That said, you know how to find me should you decide to sell off some more stuff-- I am absolutely LOVING the SSRs, the Nattys, etc... Thanks again for those.

BTW-- I just got my tin of #16 (courtesy of... guess who... JP/RR).... As soon as I get home, I am going to post icture of something unusual I noticed... and as the suspense builds, I sit here at work without my camera cable...

Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to send emails to M Phillips, prepare to google your eyes out, and prepare to be VERY worried: I noticed that the new tins of #16 had a white, rather than blue, substance within. Furthermore, they smelled different... Any ideas? JP and myself are hoping its a minor reformulation that Meguiars occasionally does/did. However, I am hoping the guy from eshine didnt take the blue stuff out and use the tins to rip people off-- it seems like it would be pretty easy to refill with another paste wax...

Brad-- it is your input, Boss_429's input, Gipraw's input, JP's input, or one of the above mentioned people's friends I am looking for especially.

BTW-- brad-- I found a chemical that takes care of the diamond plate problem. When I get home I will tell you more.
