So, I know how to buff with a orbital and by hand. That’s about all. Just wondering what kind of actual buffer can I buy that is user friendly and does a good job with corrections. I’ve seen the G100 (?) by Megs, which looks pretty good.
Secondly, What is a good "kit" for waxing the car with a good buffer (G100 for example). Waxes, Polishes, Cleaners, Clay, and Scratch Removal and any other things you can think of. Just wondering what all you guys use for your personal preference. Thanks For the Help

 

do you mean like a "must have" kind of list?

 

Yeah, i guess you can say must have and just what everyone uses on the outer portion of their truck that works the best.

 

Meguiar's Gold Class Soap
Meguiar's G100
Meguiar's M83 (Lake Country CCS Green)
Meguiar's M80 (Lake Country CCS White)
Poorboy's World Black Hole (Lake Country CCS Blue)
Meguiar's NXT 2.0 (hand applied Meguiar's foam pad)
Meguiar's M16 (hand applied Meguiar's foam pad)

Meguiar's D-Line Glass cleaner on the windows followed by Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Detailer on the windows.
Meguiar's Hyper Dressing cut 4:1 on the Fender Wells
Purple Power (full strength) to clean the tires and Fender Wells
Meguiar's Hot Shine Tire shine Gel on the tires.

Pretty much my go to product's right there. I can't wait to try M105 after all the raves it has been getting.

 

quick question? Is it....
Wash
Clay
Cleaner Wax
Polish
nxt Wax
#23 wax

 

M23 is Odor Eliminator..... if you mean M26 (which is Hi-tech Yellow Wax) then yes. The Carneuba wax is always AFTER your sealant.

Also, in your process, if you are referring to the "Polish" as a pure polish (like Deep Crystal Step 2 or #7) then the process is correct.

 

I'm still experimenting with different things. I'm also limited to a 7424 right now. That said, contrary to popular belief, I've had very good results with Menzerna SIP and Menzerna 106FF. It's been said that those products don't work to well with a DA. I've experienced the opposite. So, as it stands right now, this is my list.

Wash (Chemical Guys Maxi Suds II)
Clay (Any mild clay and lube)
Polish/correction (Menzerna Super Intensive Polish/106FF/both)
Glaze [optional](Chemical Guys EZ Creme Glaze, not all glazes are good to apply before waxes.)
Wax (Chemical Guys 5050, followed with Optimum Car Wax)
Final Wipedown (Either Megs #34 or Optimum Instant Detailer & Gloss Enhancer)

I have so much new stuff and different combination to try that this could easily change, but for now, this would be my method.

 

I have different stuff for different vehicles and I'm trying new stuff all the time. But, as of right now for my own vehicle

Meguiar's Gold Class Soap (MF mitt)
Meguiar's blue claybar (not picky about lube choice)
Meguiar's G100
Meguiar's M83 (Meg's Polish Pad)
Meguiar's M80 (Meg's Polish Pad)
Meguiar's M9 (Meg's Polish Pad)
Meguiar's M7 (Meg's Finishing Pad)
Meguiar's M16 (hand applied Foam or MF pad) bumpers too (Sometimes Natty's Red)

Sprayway glass cleaner with blue paper shop towels on glass
RainX on windows as needed (before wash)
Meguiar's Hyper Dressing cut 4:1 on the Fender Wells, Tires, and undercariage
APC+ or Simple Green cut 2:1 to clean tires, engine, grill, wheel wells, and undercariage
Meguiar's M40 on interior plastics and exterior black plastic & rubber pieces
Meguiar's quick interior detailer between needing M40
Final Detail quick detailer

Jolly,

Have you tried HD 4:1 on your interior? If so, how do you compare it to M40?

 

Never tried it on the interior. I like the #40 for protecting and cleaning and the IQD for touch ups and dusting. So never messed with looking at other stuff. Kinda if it aint broke type thing.

 

Jolly, is that the order that you use those products on the truck?

 

yes, it is.

 

Great thread guys!
