Good to see you guys back sharing the knowledge 👌
Thanks for the video gave me confidence to do this on my own! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Love these products the results are amazing. Thanks for your advice with using them from previous "day in the bay" vids you guys are great !
Thank you!
I'm inspired by this,very interesting, been watching Tutorials, Tips for the past few days,because I'm going to buy a Machine Polisher soon.This has interested me into the detailing field.
Great video.
Makes everything look easy - almost anyway.
Love using Ultimate Compound great product
Your video's are quite educational, especially for newbies like me. Fun to watch, well presented, and understandable. Keep it up!
Thank u so much for sharing this video 👍🏻, and i want to use your brand soon 😍
Utilisé aujourd’hui suite à des rayures occasionnés par un tunnel de lavage, ma voiture était neuve c’était son premier lavage !!! et là je revis polish super efficace ! Plus une rayure !!!
Super content merci !!!
Great video. Looks really sharp. Cheers!
Ultimate Compound is THE...BEST product I've ever used to restore old and faded paint. It's extremely forgiving, and removes most defects at the same time as giving a lustrous shine. A huge time saver! Nice work boys!
So for polishing very light scratches I mean very light and light swirling you would recommend? I'm trying to find something to dress my paint with that isn't too harsh but enough to clean up light scratches and swirls

@@jb0915- Start with Utimate Polish. I used to start with Ultimate Polish on a blue Hex Logic pad. This was my final polishing step before applying wax, sealant, or a coating.
If I need more cut I'd use the green hex logic. More cut than that I'd use Ultimate Compound on a green hex logic, and follow with Ultimate Polish on the blue.
I'm tempted to go back to my old set up using those combos with a Porter Cable 7424xp....
I have a car to do tomorrow. I might just dig those old products out!
Great video... i just wish you would have talked about what speed to set the DA for each step. I know what i've used but i was interested in what you guys recommend. Great products though. Thats all i use!
We love Day in the Bay. Missed you guys a lot!!!!
We've had a few uploading issue but think the issue is fixed 🤞
What a great informative video, when happy with the results to maintain would you polish and wax or could you just wax? Randomly this is for my narrowboat.
THATS MY WEEKEND SORTED 👍👍
Hi, good video. just curious if it isn't necessary to IPA wipe before the ULW of it is going over the Ultimate Polish. Being the same line of product it makes sense IPA wipe down can be skipped, but I've also read reps say on the forums that it has to be to promote better bonding by washing away the polish oils.
Is the IPA wipe down process pro durability whilst the other is to drive the show shine finish at the compromise of durability?
Best video on the series so far.
Ta
Great advice
Excelente compra!!!
I'm looking into doing this project! I am a fan of the silicone wax/products because they seem to do well in the desert heat where i'm at. Can I use those silicone products the same way after using the ultimate compound? Thanks and cheers from New Mexico in the States!
Happy 100k subs!
Thank you!
This is a great product I use it
thanks
Great video!!! What’s the name of that buffer?
Is it also for the plastic headlights on my car????
Because i saw a vid that they used the same compound, and it really worked....but, it could be an edited vid.
I have a rotary Makita polisher. Looking to do some minor correction then protect. What in the Meguiar line would you recommend for a newbie? Thank you
Would it be a good idea to wash the car after claybarring or just wipe clean with a good cloth?
What is your take in using a orbital buffer with a fixed speed?
Hello nice video man👍🏽 can i use Compound for hologramm?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
Does Megs sell a Pad kit ? Cutting/polish pads ?
Ultimate compound is very very good, I use it on its own to be honest doesn’t need the finishing polish it’s that good. It is almost as good as the professional ultra cut compound. Meguires do some of the best paint correction stuff and I’ve tried pretty much all of them
The pads that you used. Are they different from one another, or are they just different colors?
Is this a solid product to use as a single-step VERY light defect removal/polish? Or should you follow up with ultimate polish?
u can do only manuel hand?*
edit: i can use all hands manuel circle to use order quick & detailer with clay & Ultimate Compound & polish & Cire Liquide Hybride Céramic Meguiar’s & the finition Meguiar's Hybride Céramic?
So i have a question chaps. Can i use the meguiars ceramic wax spray after i've done the compound and ultimate polish. So after i've polished , do i spray on and jetwash off or wipe the wax off with towel. cheers
sold!
is it the same using after the Ultimate Compound, the 3in 1 Wax? instead of the Ultimate Polish and the Ultimate Wax?
The thing i like about Meguairs is that their products just work.
What compound do you recommend to remove holograms and bright spots?
can you just use the ultimate compound or do you have to use the polish and wax aswell?
Do you have any Meguiars Gold Class Carnauba Liquid Wax available for review? There is a 2-for-1 offer at the moment at my local motorcycle dealership. Is it any good? Can you use it after using Ultimate Polish?
Is it safe to clay bar a vehicle that doesn't have a clear coat? I have a Toyota Hiace van which doesn't come from with a clear coat. I was originally just going to use the compound and wax.
what do you think about m100 with DFC6 on DA?
Does compounding remove the clear coat?
Would this remove the letter outlines after debadging
Can this be used on the cars plastic parts?
Hi i have a pug pearl white car, where it has had a poor spray job, and the paint after 6 years is starting to go like an off white/yellow will this do the job to bring back or what would you recommend cheers
Will one bottle work to cover a whole midsize car?
I have already applied Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Wax on my car. Can I directly go wash and apply compound? or I need to take out the Hybrid Ceramic Wax?
Is there any way to remove those spider web swirl marks?
Where can i get those products in Uganda 🇺🇬
What speed do you use it at
Huge Meguiars fan and user. Would it be preferable to use the Hybrid Ceramic Liquid or Spray Wax over the ultimate wax you used in the above video?
Just substitute Ultimate wax for wax of your preference, i would use the hybrid over ultimate
Hallo
Kannst du mir sagen welche polierpad ich brauche für Compund / Polish und welche Geschwindigkeit an die poliermaschine
👍🏾💯
what pad was this?
How much clay do you use for a car?
When do you decide to go with a foam pad for cutting vs the microfiber? I have a VW with very hard paint. So would using the Microfiber polishing disc instead be more affective? Or?
Each clear coat is different. Some will produce lots of hazing, needed to be corrected by foam pads.
Other clear is harder and will not produce hazing when cutting with microfiber. In either case, microfiber removes deeper swirls quicker but with more heat.
How do i stop getting dried residue on the panel when doing it by hand? Ive tried using more product, less product, on a small area and a large area and i get spots/streaks of dried residue. Going over it with more compound then leaves more residue in a different area. The panel was cool and not in direct sunlight. My bottle is getting quite old now, could this be the reason? Your video makes it look so easy but its so difficult to wipe off. Love Meguiars, but im thinking about swapping to something different now when i need to replace it.
Probably too late but buff it off with a super soft cloth.
Thanks for the sharing, I have a question. Do we need to wash the car after the clay ? Or just take the dust/dry with microfiber and then apply the compound? How long do we need the compound and polish to cure ?
You’re good to go after claying. Compound and polish need no curing time , wipe right after applying. Wax needs 5-10 minutes of cure time , then wipe off
Excellent product. With love from Ukraine

Stay safe friend🙏
Як справи там бро?
How hard are you pressing
Dont have the electric polisher/buffer.. Is this a doable treatment by hand?
Yes and it will be good, just don’t expect the same level of cut as a machine:)
So you can use it by hand with a towel?
I’m pretty sure but for the best you’re going to want to use rotary to really fill gaps
whats the cutting grade???
Let's say 8 out of 10.
Can remove up to P1500 sanding marks.
For a given paint hardness, cutting performance is Pad dependent
Also just to add these are products you buy in Halfords not proper detailing products
You can buy far better stuff at lower prices as well
Can this remove water spots from plastic/rubber trim?
I wouldnt recommend using the compound on your trim, I would however suggest using a multipurpose cleaner and agitating with a brush :)
@@meguiarsuk I have tried that, still have water spots.
@@MeliorIlle Rubber is not supposed to be polished.
Try a Water Spot remover product (acid based product). You could start giving a try to white vinegar.
Not sure such a kind of product exists in the Meguiar's product line.
You can also try Meguiar’s marine water spot detailer, I’ve had some success with that product.
@@MeliorIllemight be better with a wax for that kind of thing , it works a treat on mine for water spots
Does the ultimate polish contain fillers?
UP seems to be containing some mild fillers.
Not an issue because UP is not designed for paint correction.
UC is designed for paint correction and does not contain fillers. With UC, What You See Is What You Get.
@Thierry Jau Thanks , The reason im asking is after using UC would you still use UP if intending to ceramic the vehicle as surely the coating would fail in those areas that UP ( & its fillers ) was used ?
Yes. The polish does. Not the compound though
Great products and great tutorial, music is just too loud can barely hear the lad.
Why you people don't mention any expiry date on your products? Do let me know what is the shelf life of your ultimate compound , ultimate polish and gold class carnauba plus cream wax and your nxt car wash and gold class car wash shampoo?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
can use on new car?
STOPPED 😮 DO NOT WANT TO RUIN YOUR LIFE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂
The music is too much.
105 / 205 ... OR ... ULT COMP / ULT POL
Bros doing a 50 step process, surely you don’t need all of these products 😂
Turned the video off the music is so annoying
Do you really need to have that irritating "music" in the background?
Thanks for the feedback, Is it the music over the talking?
@@meguiarsuk Music's a bit loud. Stuck in my head now.
Perhaps you’ve never heard of mute?
There's to much difference in sound level between music and informative parts
I like this music
Not all of us want to invest in a machine and those who have will probably use something more exotic.
How about some help for those of us who only polish by hand please?
Ultimate Compound can be used by hand but...
Polishing (with a compound for paint correction) a whole car by hand is a nightmare and the result is less consistent.
Yeah, in my work (4x4 specialist), I have to put up with fingernail scratches around door handles, scuffed door jambs and boot sills from jumping dogs, and hedge scratches on mirror cases, all impossible to use the machine on. Those areas can only be compounded by hand.
For more details about hand polishing with UC, you could watch this very informative video :
th-cam.com/video/3Dydkw9OYwQ/w-d-xo.html
@@owensteele1645 Each use case deserves its own solution 😉
In your case, I assume you do not need to achieve show car results. So, hand polishing should be good enough.
However, if you want to save time and maybe improve the results particularly on severe defects, you could use a small size polisher.
I'm not a pro, just an enthusiast, I use both 5" and 3" polishers. Nano-polishers for 1" pads also exist, maybe a future buy...
Meanwhile I do the intricate areas by hands.
I hand polished today the 3 step compound polish wax and i found it really difficult i couldn't get the polish off and its left marks everywhere and my arm is now killing me .may be i should of clay bar first .i got a job on my hands to get all the marks off now maybe i did something wrong ?
This product didn't do what it says it does
The ultimate polish is crap
It’s very hard to get off and leaves marks had to rub and rub to get it off and get the marks out prob the worst polish I’ve used sorry but it’s the truth
Why is everyone crying about the music? Bunch of whiners.
Meguiairs. Should improve there compound & polishes. So that it doesn’t stain plastic trim that would be impressive that’s why I stopped using your products
Pro tip: Don't cover up your video action with a Pro tip...
This seems a little overkill, think the cut then polish was sufficient
Was just wondering whats the difference between liquid and ceramic wax? @meguiaresuk
Then you take your vehicle into the sun and magical white spots and wetmark-like junk starts appearing.
This is a great product I use it
