Used the Meguiars 3 step system today (first time)

**Speedy_Gonzales** · 05-10-2008, 06:52 PM

1. Paint cleaner 2. Polish 3. Wax

Very impressed. It was lots of work, but wow it does a great job. I used it on my moms SUV. It was her mothers day present. Cant wait to use it on the SS.

**LETHALxLS1** · 05-11-2008, 11:01 AM

Zymol! Of course!

Speaking of such I need to do my car now.

**third_shift|studios** · 05-11-2008, 02:08 PM

thats it...i gotta do this system. How bad did your forearm hurt afterward and how lond did it take?

**Sarge** · 05-11-2008, 03:10 PM

I use it from time to time and have a new set of the 3 bottles....it is good stuff...but Zymol looks just as good after just "one step" ( better IMHO) than using the Meguires 3 step and last longer....

I am frigin wore out today from it lol..........took me 7 hours all together. Would be less on our cars cause my moms is a SUV.

I will see which works best on the SS. Meguiars or Zymol. I hope Sarge is right about Zymol lol, less $$$ and less work

I might try Meguiars paint cleaner and polish then use Zymol wax, since it seems better than the Meguiars wax. That might be the perfect combo

after the Zymol wax I tried the lightly spray with water to buff for a even better gloss and it works !

Try using the new Meguiar's NXT2.0 in the wax step.

**slowmaro305** · 05-19-2008, 07:07 AM

I have used this system in the past on my black eldorado. It came out nice but you are not kidding about taking a long time.

**Speedy_Gonzales** · 05-24-2008, 06:47 PM

detailed the SS for 8 hours today.........the Meguiars 3 Step System is awesome........after only 2 hours of the polish/wax job, good ole Ga pollen already on the hood in pic #1 lol

That third pic shows a great reflection in the quarter panel, car looks very good Randy.

**Mr. Luos** · 05-24-2008, 06:50 PM

Looks great Randy!!

Going to hit up the T/A here soon as well. Doesn't need much work, just some touch ups.
I used to use the Meguiars 3 step. Did it by hand. I would probably use the 3 step again...but with the PorterCable. Makes much easier work of it.

I'm available Sunday, and got Makita!

Got some 3M Ultrafina SE, 3M 6064 Swirl Remover with blue, and black pads to use with the rotary on the vette!

You're welcome if you want to try some 3M Ultrafina. Outstanding stuff!
