Got some for Christmas so thought I'd give it a whirl. It's a top product so I'm expecting top results. Gave Bella a good clean first to help, Snowfoam then jet washed off, Magma sprayed over the paint then hand washed of using AG Pure Soap. Jet washed off then washed using another Mit and some more AG Pure Soap, rinsed off then towel dried. Got all the water out of the shuts etc then covered and left overnight. Applied as per instructions using a fibre pad, it does a very good job, however, it took a while to buff out needing to go over the car twice despite regularly turning my fibre cloth. Locked in with AG Ultra High Definition Wax. A good finish if a bit more effort required.

Verdict? Recommended.

Obligatory pics.

Your detailing skills are top of the tree @andyglym - nice to see you might be converting to Meguiars !

Isn't that funny, I found the Autoglym more difficult to buff out, especially in the sun (not at this time of the year, obvs). When using the Meguiars, I've got both the applicator and microfibre in my hand. I do a panel and buff a panel - found it really easy that way.

Your car always looks best in show, theres a reason for that - always looks top drawer !

Thanks mate, appreciated. AG SRP and EGP are buggers to buff out if done in the sun, I always put mine in the garage to polish for that reason. Whilst I've been an AG man for 35 years I've always tried other stuff as there's loads of good stuff out their. This is good stuff but other stuff will always be in the minority. :thumbsup:

Go for products without fillers if possible. They only look good for a while and leave alot of dust.

I‘ve always rated Meguiars stuff but recently gone back to some AG products namely SRP and their tyre dressing, I do still rate their ultimate compound and quick detailer.

I think we're spoilt for choice if I'm honest, that said, I do think that AG has the best range of products.

Is that the ultimate fast finish? Fantastic product! I used that on the blue car after a thorough clean and clay bar. On the Z3 I tried the Meguiars hybrid ceramic and it’s pretty amazing too. Spectacular beading and shine.

Looks good Andy. The buffing is why I love Poor Boys Glaze and Poor Boys Natty Carnauba wax, never used anything that comes off so easy.
