Was at walmart today and saw that they had the new megs swirl remover. Anybody try it yet and what was the results??

 

damn walmart already has it? i thought i got it early from autogeek. just recieved it the other day. when i get a nice day im going to try it out.

 

Yea, just saw it at the local Walmart, along with Scratch X 2.0, Ultimate Compound, and some of the other new additions to the Meg's consumer line.

 

It's called SwirlX...haven't played with it yet myself, but I have high expectations. ALL of the new additions to the consumer line by Meguiar's this year are heavy hitters... expect some serious buzz about this stuff. Game changing stuff, and easy enough for the average Joe...gotta love it!

 

I can't remember for sure what EXACTLY I use but I'm pretty sure I use the stuff you speak of. Unsure because of the number systems they use. It's a pre-wax cleaner as well and for me it's worked great. Best results for me after a bunch of trial and error and tips from here have been do a small section at a time, example 1/4 of a body part or less and rub in good. Remove right away with microfiber cloths. Otherwise it's hard to remove.

 

man i wish my wal-marts around here sold the new Meguiars products, or at least some of them. the newest stuff they sell near me is nxt 2.0 hahaha. i have to order everything.

 

Meg's makes some great stuff but, they need to be careful to not consumerize themselves... While I understand that the WalMarter carries a HUGE chunk of change and is the majority of any manufacturer's portfolio of clients, I'm worried that Meg's will cannibalize their M-line (Professional) at the cost of the A & G-lines (consumer / Wal-Mart).

Case in point -- UGE & M-135 (these two products, to me, seem AMAZINGLY similar in look, performance, and overall use). Meg's has always been hugely successful on both sides of the detailing realm coin (ie: Pro-use and Mart-user use). I see more and more reason to believe that they're more interested in chasing the G & A line users than the M-line users anymore... that's just me though... my opinion.

They make great stuff but, I'm worried that, with 3M kind of steering the ship now, that the failed attempts at Wal-Mart by 3M will be relived via the Meguiar's name.... just an observation, thought, opinion, and all that jazz...

i dont know if im doing something wrong but i tried out the Swirl-x in a little area on my hood that is real bad with swirls. i rubbed and rubbed it and got no change. any pointers on this, or best way to remove swirls by hand? i was using a foam app pad
