Excellent video keep these coming one of the best learning videos out there I've seen well done lads

Hi greetings from Colombia. I met A lot of meguiars products and i am so satisfied. It's an excellent quality. And your videos are awesome. Thanks for teach and share knowledge.

Probably the best machine tuition video I’ve seen breaks it rite down for ppl

Thanks for doing these videos!!! So helpful and I'm becoming a Meguiar's fan more and more. Great products and right price!

I'm so glad that I found your 'how to' videos!! Thank you so much! I was always too reluctant to detail my our vehicles. But I've followed your advice and videos to the letter and have learnt so much. Our cars all have a long lasting showroom finish now that lasts and follow up washing and detailing is a pleasure. Thank you!

Great video guys I will deffo be purchasing my own DA MT320 of course. You two crack me up 😂😂😂😂👍👍👍👍

I’m well into my detailing but you never stop learning! Great channel love the content! Keep up the good work 👌👌🙏😎

Hi Patrick & Dale, we watch all your new videos, there awsome!!! we have a detailing outlet in Scotland and showcase Meguiar's Products in our store, customers love your products and so do we. Keep up the great videos guys! Nicky & Simon from Scotland

Always learning something new about polishing, thank u for all guys🤙🏼

Enjoying the series, keep it simple.

Good video always learning something new with every video👍🏽

The perfect video ive been looking for on how to machine polish!!

Have to say lads, your Ultimate Compound and Polish are incredible products. I had a horrendously oxidised bonnet on a car I bought and I was getting told from everyone that it was beyond repair and needed a respray. Two passes with Ultimate Compound and one pass with Ultimate Polish on a DA and it was like brand new.

My 30 year old fire truck sat outside in the sun and snow for 3 years, a quick pass with ultimate compound and it shines like new and is ready for parades. Great product.

I am so excited, I just ordered my Clay Bar Kit, Ultimate Compound, Ultimate Polish and Gold Class Carnauba Plus Premium Liquid Wax for my black mk7 Golf GTI to prep it for a show and I have been watching this Detailing 101 series for hours :')...I can't wait to see the results!

Great video guys, thanks!

Awesome video,that DA polisher works a treat,you can tell the difference how it was.top work.

Great tutorial thanks chaps 😎👍🏻

Meguiar’s products for life👊🏾

This stuff is legit. Especially for how inexpensive it is. I used the ultimate compound on my black 4runner which honestly looked pretty weathered and hazy and it came out absolutely shining. Seriously, my dad is a car guy and has polished a few cars in his day and he was blown away at the difference, it looked like a different vehicle.

That was magical 🧙‍♀️ 🏆

great video. thanks guys!

I've just bought this thanks for the tips lads

Great videos guys. The simple and clear instructions are great. I know it's not normally part of the Meguiars arsenal, but can you guys do a video on how to use a Rotary buffer? You have obviously covered the DA polisher, but some details on how to use a rotary buffer would be great!

Great videos guys. Just spent the last HR watching all stages and got some new things to try. Bought my first bottles of compound and polish today.... Seriously considering a DA now... Top work!

this is a great video thanks

Great video Learnt a lot thank you

Great video first time ive seen anyone prep all over pad better than the over videos ive watched.

🔥 content boys keep it up !!

Quality video lads 👌👌👌

Using this on my nighthawk black CTR, really does bring out the colour of the paint. You can see the glistening purple/midnight blue flakes without looking closely, just passing by you can see the colours popping out. Amazing stuff.

I just detailed my black 88 Mazda RX 7 today, and what an awesome difference

Love your work guys! Been detailing as a hobbyist for about 15 years now using Megs from the very beginning. I, as most people began at the local shops just looking over products and seeing that Meguiar’s name, I knew I was getting a great product at a fair price. Watching you from the state of Illinois in the USA, this is quality content, thanks guys!!

I love you’re videos theyre very teachable for us as beginners thanks alot for really good advices and keep it up bro and I have a question I have 3M vinyl in front of my car is compuinding polishing and ceramic coaring will destroy or make it peel off

Thanks guys after watching your video it gave me the confidence to finally attempt a full detail on my car. Your tutorials are brilliant. Keep up the good work!!

You can get fantastic results just by using Ultimate Compound by hand followed by Ultimate Wax!

finally meguiars updated their vids other ones were like 10 years old!

That beat it nice!

Good video, great series! It looks easy working on the big panels, but what about the small areas with more bents and curves? It is nice to have beginners guide, but they are the ones who can get easily in trouble when they do not have an idea how to tackle the curves and the edges where the paint is thinner. Try to show the complete process from start to finish. If you are a prof detailer, you would have an expensive 1 inch air polisher, but that's not the case with home detailers. How to tackle the small areas (under the door handles for example) should be the next video I guess? Keep up the good work. Aaand glass polishing video, I am working on my e36 glass headlights in the near future, sooo show me your wisdoom 😁

You could always do the car in sections. Maybe the Hood, roof, and deck lid first. Then the drivers side, then the passenger side. Finish up with the front and rear bumpers. Breaking it up into sections will be your best bet if you don't have a good place to work.

Love the vids guys..👍🏻.1 thing i notice is dale never mentions too clean the pad after each pass...clean pad =clean work

Hi guys, love your videos. Do you use 5 inch or 6 inch backing plates and pads?

Not a bad beginner video, however you should mention that either you must clean the pads after 2-3 panels or use multiple pads as they will get clogged up.

If you can't position the machine flat on the panel due to obstacles (for example the area between the door hand and the window, or areas on the bumper), does that mean you should avoid using the machine entirely and apply manually by hand? Or is it ok to use the tip of the pad to get to hard-to-reach areas? Never used a machine before and I'm a bit nervous to ruin the surface.

Great job guys. So tell me how did you get that super gloss

A question, for how much time it’s gonna last long without the swirl marks appearing back on again? And how often do you change pad?

I have heard so many different answers to this question. How many pads do you have to use for each stage? Would you give some guidance on this? Can you do it with just one? Or do you need multiple for a whole car? Thanks!

why dont u make a video comparing m205 and the regular meguiers compound whats the difference? when to use one over the other?

Hey Dale, what if only a panel or two only need doing? Do we just move to next step ? Is that ok to not do the whole car?

What polishing pads should I use and where can I buy them? I’m from Canada, thank you.

I thought I was gonna go deaf in my right ear at some points 😂 but now I’m ready to start my pickup 🛻

I thought my earphones were broken 😂💔a very informative video thou 🖒

I don’t have a dual action polisher but just a normal polisher that I bought. And there is so many colours of pad that it came with My question is 1) which colour pad should I use for the compound, polish & wax? 2) Why r u keep on repeating that u don’t need to be worried when using machine with compound? I have never b4 done this and want to make my car glossy and remove the marks, but I want to do it myself with Meguiar products and not from shop. So if u can give tips it would really be helpful and also what other product can u recommend to give my black car a strong mirror shine.

That part where you set the speed to 2 to spread the compound and switching it later on to higher speed to get the job done, can you use it or is it applicable on wax?

Can you use the compound on small areas like around the door handles or on the roof, on scratches with a pad? or do you have to do the hole car, once you use it?

Hey guys Quick question I bought packet of applicator. I have two kinds I have terry and microfiber pads . Which one should I used for ultimate meguiars compound ?

I tried ultimate compound. It certainly removed the dullness hazeing & lite oxidation & bought up a brilliant shine no question but it didnt remove the scratches

Great vid....The concern I have is that yes it removes swirls and scratches well but leaves behind that haze. Polish will shine it right up but when the polish wears down it seems as though the haze will still be there?

@meguiarsuk

5 жыл бұрын

If there is any hazing the Ultimate Polish will remove that haze. If you then use a wax to protect the hard work and you've done then you should be good to go.

How much of a difference in results would i get doing the compound,polish, and wax by hand instead of the machine? Would it remove swirls just as easy by hand without the machine and different pads?

Hi, noticed you used the brown pad for the polishing stage? Is there any reason for using the more aggressive pad when a polish doesn’t have any cutting capability’s ?

So we used the burgundy cutting disc in order to remove the swirls and scratches. Polishing video is this Wednesday!

I always use Ultimate Compound and its great.. recently I used it on a black car, the scratches have gone but I am now left with burring marks (only visible under direct sunlight) any idea where I have gone wrong?

I noticed that you used the compound on the roof of your car. It looks like you have a moon roof, which is glass. Did you go over it like you did the metal surfaces? Does it work on that glass as well or does it make any difference one way or another?

Got any discount codes for the website? 😊 thinking of getting your machine polisher.

I bought a draper da from eBay for £60 and it's a great machine. It has a 5 metre cable, spare brushes for the motor, 5" velcro backing plate and a carry bag. I did buy meguiars microfibre cutting and polishing pads with the ultimate compound.

I followed this using your ultimate compound and I didn’t notice much difference it was my first time using a machine should I use a harder pad ? I went safe and used a soft (not the softest ) any ideas please

My question would be with regards my father's 1989 Mercedes 300se. It is in a metallic smoke silver and I was just wondering if the compound would remove any protective layer that is currently on top of that paint? In other words was it two stage paint back then?

If there was colour transfer on the pad then it would mean the car doesn't have a clear coat. This isn't an issue however as the Ultimate Compound revives faded or dull paint. see our Day In The Bay with the MK1 Golf. kzread.info/dash/bejne/e2d2lsSGibWyl7g.html

Can I use the one cutting pad on the whole car? as I head some people using 3 pads just for cutting on a car that is only years old and regularly washed.

Can you show how to use the ultimate compound swirling out by hand

Hi Meguiars,i have this a try for the very first time on my car bonnet,I used the auto finesse DA polisher and there orange pad,I cleaned and dried the car and clayed the bonnet,put a tap down the middle as you did and done a small ish part but i didn’t really see much empowerment tbh,is it because of the bad or because i might not of done as many passes,I only done about 2/3 passes as was a little scared of going through my paint even tho people say my paint will be fine,please could you tell me the best pad to use with your ultimate compound,plus iv also got your 3 in 1 witch is also for swerl marks but i believe the ultimate compound is the more stronger one for swerls,please correct me if I’m wrong and again please help me on the pads i should be using,colour point is black magic purl on a golf gti mk5 and a tornado ref (golf gti mk5) but it’s the black one that needs it a little more,the tornado red has swerls but only light ones,not sure if that information was needed but thought I’d give you it incase it helps me...thank you and hope to here soon 🙏🏻

Ultimate Compound is the best product for defect removal and paint restoration. 3-in-1 is a one hit wax that has some defect removal properties along with the polish & wax attributes but is not as effective as Ultimate Compound if you are just looking at defect removal. The important variables to consider when using with a dual action polisher are 1) the speed of the machine, to give you context if you were to use the Meguiar's MT320 we would suggest a speed of 4800-5800 OPM's. 2) Hand speed. With ultimate compound you need to move maybe an inch per second to give the pad and the compound time to work the surface. 3) Quantity of product, make sure the pad is suitably covered with the product. 4) number of passes. With Defect removal multiple passes are sometimes necessary especially with harder paints/deeper defects. 5) The pad. Our best pad for use with the Ultimate Compound is the DFC5 (5") or DFC6 (6").

How bad is the hazing? So you do the pain correction and then have do it all again to correct the hazing you created?

Not every car will have a haze after compounding. You usually see this if the cars paint is quite soft. but if you are compounding you will want to protect afterwards.

I’ve got a bumper thats been touched up with spray paint recently but it feels kinda grainy like fine sand paper. I clayed the area but felt that it was still slightly rough. Would compounding the area by hand smoothen the paint?

I would keep going with the clay. It sounds like overspray so with a couple of goes over the area it should eventually start to smooth out.
