so i got a megs g110 DA for christmas, i was wondering what order these products should go in, if you have any suggestions for products or notice something i should use instead of a product i list please feel free to say so, but anyways


hi-tech yellow wax
nxt 2.0
medium cut cleaner
synthetic sealant
fine cut cleaner
show car glaze

what order should these products be applied in?

 

So you've got


hi-tech yellow wax (#26)
nxt 2.0
medium cut cleaner #1?
synthetic sealant #21
fine cut cleaner #2?
show car glaze #7

Personally I haven't used 1 +2, they're sitting on my shelf but i haven't used them or what anything about them.

80, 81,83 is the polishes i'd reccomend if you're just starting. 105 is great stuff too but i believe it requires some experince IMO

I'd also pick up #9

1
2
7
21/ NXT are pretty much the same imo
26 if you'd like.

 

okay so 1,2,7,nxt,and 26 would be your order? tryin not to go over 70 dollars, anyone else? thanks guys

 

i also have scratch x, anyone else wanna give their opinion?

 

You'd probably be good to go with 83 and 80 for your polishes. Then for protection you can use Nxt 2.0. You can leave it at that or add #26 for looks and a touch more protection.

From ADS:
83 - 16.99
80 - 13.99
Nxt - 14.99
26 - 10.99
- 56.96

If you don't have clay and lube yet you should definitely get that too. You should always clay before polishing. The Smooth Surface Clay kit will include the clay and lube for $15.49. That puts you at $72.45 + shipping. How are you on pads?

 

good on pads, so go in th is order? 83,80,nxt, then 26?

 

okay so i think i got it, so this is gonna be my process correct me if im wrong, wash, clay, 80,83,7, nxt,26?

 

83 is more aggressive than 80 and rule is least aggressive method first. Pick yourself up some blue masking tape and tape a small section off to do a test. Try the 80 first and check the results. If you're happy with the results continue to do the car in small 2'x2' sections. If there are still defects that 80 won't remove then step up to the 83 and do another test spot. If that won't do it then you may need to rethink what pad you're using or you can step up to something stronger like 105 or you can try multiple passes of 83 before either of those two. You may need to follow 83 up with 80 to remove any hazing 83 leaves behind. I'm not familiar with 7. I don't know if it will cause any bonding issues with Nxt or 26. Maybe someone else can chime in on 7. Anyway, then it's Nxt and 26 for the added pop.

 

He's got it right.

7 is a glaze that i use quite often. Crank the speed up and go at it. I use it as a burnishing step.

To throw this is in, i use just megs pads. I almost always use a polishing pad for correction work. What kind of condition is your paint in?

 

its got some pretty decent swirls, i wasnt able to find 80 or 83 at oreilly so i went ahead and got the medium cut cleaner and swirl remover 2.0, my plan was to do this
1.clay
2.scratch-x(if needed)
3.medium cut cleaner
4. swirl remover 2.0
5.show car glaze
6. nxt 2.0
7. hi tech yellow wax

this sound good guys? i am usin megs pads

 

Yeah, that's fine

But fyi around here it's much easier if you use the numbers for megs. We all use the numbers and you'll catch on eventually. Makes lifes easier

 

okay well i know i got 7 and 26 lol i forgot the other numbers, but i will be doing the detail wednesday and most likely posting before and after pics
