I don't use Meguiar's anymore...

To all those going to detailing day, have fun! Hopefully they will give good advice and teach good techniques.

But, before you BUY any of their products, you might want to read two threads I've recently posted in the Detailing forum describing my experiences with Meguiar's Gold Class carnauba, Meguiar's NXT Tech Wax, and Zaino.

https://mbworld.org/forums/detailing-automotive-care/82696-my-meguiar-s-nxt-experience.html

https://mbworld.org/forums/detailing-automotive-care/84444-carnauba-nxt-zaino.html

When I first got my MB, I bought a whole bunch of stuff from Meguiar's website, thinking I was getting a better deal than buying the MB-labeled Meguiar's stuff from the stealer. Little did I know you could get all the Meguiar's stuff even cheaper from Pep Boys (yeah, what can I say, I didn't know sh*t).

Now all of that stuff (except for towels and a nice wash mitt) is sitting in a box probably never to be used again. I tried Zaino this weekend, and love the results. If it lasts anywhere near the claimed 6-9 months (even 4 months would be great), I'll be sticking with Zaino from here on out.

its a clinic on how to detail your car, plus you get a goody bad with free meguiars stuff. obviously they are pushing their products, but from what ive heard about these clinics from other people who have attended and from meguairs its more of a how to properly detail, rather than strictly a sales pitch.

I would probably never use Meguiar's over Zaino, either, but I'm still going to the Meguiar's detail day, for the tips, free goodies, and just one more excuse to drive my Benz and meet with other MB nuts like me.
