Find Best Price at Amazon"I've been a Meguiar's user for over 10 years, and this is a great starter kit for anyone that is interested in taking the time to detail their own car versus taking it to a car wash or giving to someone as a gift. Some people can't find the time or would rather take their vehicle through a car wash than spend a couple hours washing, waxing and detailing their car. So here's what you get: 16-ounce Gold Class wash shampoo and conditioner, 16-ounce Quik detailer, 16-ounce Quik interior detailer, 16-ounce cleaner wax liquid , 24-ounce Hot Rims all wheel cleaner, washing sponge, foam applicator, and Supreme Shine microfiber towel. 16-ounce Gold Class wash shampoo and conditioner: Just add a few capfuls to a bucket and it provides a sudsy and silky cleaner for your car that won't remove the wax that is on your car. Supreme Shine microfiber towel: This 16"x24" towel is best used to remove the wax you've applied to the car or for use with the Quick detailer. Again, don't use the same microfiber towel for the interior detailer as you do for the wax removal."
"My car is white, and people who own white cars know how difficult it is to take care of (besides a black car of course). Buy the Mequiars White Wax and wax your car with it AFTER you clay bar and you'll be shocked at the way your car looks..it will look EVEN BETTER than the day you bought it."
"(Less the bucket and water) Park your car in a shady place and hose it off to cool it down real good. Use the peanut sponge and the Gold Soap on the right of the picture (you only need a cap or two per gallon of water) and wash the car off really well. After you're good and clean hit the rims ONE AT A TIME with the purple (middle) bottle. The white tire foam should turn brown after a few seconds when it comes into contact with brake dust and dirt. I had bird poop on my car the next morning after I waxed it and I used a microfiber cloth and it wiped right away. The red spray bottle is also good for getting rid of water spots after it rains on your fresh wax job."
"A careful claying, followed by a buffing with super-fine polishing compound brought back a remarkable degree of shine to the car, making it entirely presentable in ordinary driving."
Hydrophobic Polymer Technology allows moisture to bead and roll off the waxed paint.

"We normally use the Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax for our daily end of the day detailing to keep the cars looking good, but we were going through those small bottles like crazy. They told me this product is meant to be used as a waterless car wash (which is what we used the Quik Wax for in between water & wax) & that the Quik Wax is a spray wax (no really??"
"OK every meguiars product I use works really well, makes it worth the extra money. So I use the wash and wax, the one that smells like mango and that alone made my new Nissan look amazing, I was using turtle wax ice spray but it is always out of stock and on the black paint on the new car it streaks if the paint is still hot. This spray wax says that you can use it on wet paint while drying, so that may save time."
"I like Meguair products - I use their Ultimate Detailer spray, Waterless Wash and Wax spray, the Ultimate compound and polish. It works both outside and inside and it does not leave any white marks after drying (e.g. on rubber or leather). I use it on the alloy wheels to help reduce the amount of brake dust that settles on the alloy wheels. I'd recommend buying small bottles of products and see which one works best for you."
"I bought a different product for extra gloss/removing fine swirls and this actually removed the swirls!!"
"If the vehicle has been properly prepared, the depth of shine and protection this provides is top notch."
"Step two, wipe in product with towel #1. Step three, go over same spot just wiped and buff with towel #2. And you are done!"
"This stepped up my game on giving that "little extra" to my customers."
Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax uses Meguiar's ThinFilm technology to deliver our easiest application and removal…even if you have to wax in full sun! Meguiar’s Ultimate Liquid Wax is suitable for any paint type, including clear coats, and will enhance the color and depth of the vehicle’s paint. Because of the unique chemistry employed with Meguiar's Ultimate Waxes, apply the wax one section at a time and then remove it after 3-5 minute initial cure time. Ultimate Wax’s ThinFilm technology and synthetic polymers allow the wax to be removed even if it has not fully dried. Applying Ultimate Wax For best results, apply in the shade to a clean, cool surface one section at a time, allowing 3-5 minutes of initial cure time before removing Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax. Using the included applicator, apply a coat of Meguiar’s Ultimate Wax directly onto the black waxing pad. Let cure for 3 – 5 minutes before wiping of with a clean Meguiar’s Supreme Shine Microfiber Towel, turning to a clean side for the final wipe. Apply a coat of Meguiar’s Ultimate Wax directly onto the black waxing pad. Complete one section at a time, allowing the wax to initially cure for 3 – 5 minutes before removal. Advanced synthetic polymers crosslink to form a long-lasting protective barrier amplifying reflection for incredible depth and mirror-like shine. New synthetic polymers crosslink to form a protective barrier that accurately reflects and amplifies light for incredible depth and mirror-like shine.

Yes, you can give your car to the car wash and have them to all the work, but it costs a lot and no one is going to do a better job that you on your own car. I want to protect my car against contamination. Then after that, I prefer to clay bar the car. Then after that's done, you need, you MUST wax your car either with carnauba wax or this sealant. To apply this product you need take the sponge provided, put the product on it, I like to do an X shape across and work parts of the car."
"I waxed all 3 of my auto's during the same weekend, 1 with Zaino's 1 with Meguiar's NXT Tech Wax and the 3rd with Ultimate wax. Keep in mind to really keep a cars finish protected a car should be waxed every 8 weeks or so, nothing lasts for 6 months or more."
"You get that beautiful mirror shine, and that rich deep color back in your paint."
"I had no idea that claying my car would be so easy and took hardly anytime."
"I don't think it's as good as a sealant, but using this with Meguair's Quik Wax in-between regular waxes - my car is looking like a wet mirror."
"Had it washed and then applied just the wax and the results are just as good if I had more time and gave it a good clay before this product the results would probably be even better."
"I just finished cleaning my truck using their compound, polisher and ultimate liquid wax and I love the way my truck looks."
"The bottle lasts a year or more, I have three vehicles and I apply them three or four times a year wax, if you see it is a big savings."

"I also like to use fine spray to clean and polish my interior spa walls each time the spa is drained, The kit also was very effective in maintaining the acrylic face of a piece of artwork for which the painted design is behind a sheet of clear acrylic at the back of fountain--removed scratches and mineral deposits."
"If they developed a finishing sealer as opposed to the same cleaner to make the finished product last more than 3-4 months I believe they could put many other vendors out of business."

Make your wax protection last longer by removing above surface contaminants while also restoring a smooth-as-glass finish with Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit. With Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay Kit, you will be able to make waxing easier and longer lasting, and safely remove bonded contaminants. Evaluating Your Paint Surface Before using Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit on your vehicle, it is recommended that you begin by washing and drying your car thoroughly, as it will allow you to evaluate the surface of your vehicle for the presence of various defects needing correction. If not and your paint surface is rough to the touch, this is an indication that you will need to clay your car using Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay Kit. With the proper use of the claying bar and Meguiar’s Quik Detailer (included in the Smooth Surface Clay Kit), the clay will quickly, but gently remove bonded contaminants on your vehicle’s painted surfaces. Claying removes “bonded contaminants” on your paint’s surface; and not “below surface” defects like swirls, scratches or etchings. Make your wax protection last longer by removing above surface contaminants while restoring a smooth-as-glass finish with Meguiar's® Smooth Surface™ Clay Kit. Removing above surface contaminants and restoring a smooth surface to your paint finish is easily accomplished with Meguiar's® Smooth Surface™ Clay Kit. Includes 2- 80 gram bars, clay lubricant, and microfiber towel.
