The Meguiar's Range
While primarily focused on solving problems and improving outcomes for automotive enthusiasts, the Meguiar’s range incorporates a broad cross section of solutions aimed at detailing professionals and the marine market.
Meguiar’s Exterior Products
As you would expect from a brand of this calibre, Meguiar’s have an extensive range of products ideally suited for use by general enthusiasts and professional car detailers who make their living in car care and rely on quality product to meet and exceed the expectations of their clientele. Meguiar’s unparalleled range renders it the obvious choice for those in the trade.
If you like making a strangely satisfying and therapeutically huge mess, then a decent snow foaming cannon kit is an absolutely must. Access to replacement and related fittings to get your investment working just right and keep it that way is worthy of consideration.
A versatile multi-purpose cleaner capable of lifting dirt, grease and grime from most interior and exterior surfaces is another must have. See here for any bottles or applicators needed to assist with the easy application of this or any other Meguiar’s products.
Absolutely everyone should have at least one of Meguiar’s famous lambswool wash mitts; a better example of which we’ve not found since we’ve been in the trade. Its double-edged design provides a gentle deep pile on one side to safely wipe away harmful grit and debris on initial passes as well as a capable fabric mesh on the other side firm enough to sheer off baked-on gunk yet soft enough not to leave a mark. Meguiar’s carry a diverse selection of microfibre cloths and drying towels also, allowing you to ensure everything that touches your duco is soft enough not to introduce any scratches or swirl marks into the paint and undo all your hard work.
There’s a truly expansive range of wax products available in spray, paste and liquid form, many in both a small easy to apply applicators as well as larger commercial volumes suitable for the avid car enthusiast and industry professional alike.
The number one necessity for everyone, no matter how meticulous you are with your car care regime, is a decent car wash and shampoo. Those looking to save time without sacrificing results might wish to opt for a quality wash and wax, of which Meguiar’s has several to choose from.
A periodic once over with a heavy duty bug and tar remover is well worth it and great for lifting stubborn contaminants that can cause etching and staining if left on your sensitive duco too long.
The last thing you wanna do when it comes time to dry your paintwork after a good clean is introduce scratches and swirls into the paint. Accordingly, Meguiar’s offer small and large chamois as well as small and large microfibre super-glide chamois cloths. These are fully synthetic and offer several advantages over natural alternatives. For example, they don’t dry stiff as a board, they don’t stick to or drag across your precious paintwork and are far less prone to mould growth.
A full range of liquid polishes, polishing compounds, clay and clay bars to help lift even the most stubborn foreign bodies from your paintwork are available. There’s even a selection of powered polishing kits for those keen to take the elbow grease out of the equation. For more severe damage that cannot be polished out, Meguiar’s offer a complement of paint and scratch concealers to help hide your shame and get your duco presenting like new again. In the event you need to do a bit of restoration or remediation work on aging paintwork though, Meguiar’s do have an extensive range of cutting and buffing discs along with a stack of different polishing and allocator pads to help you the rejuvenate the factory finish.
Getting your wheels, brakes, engine bay and undercarriage clean without doing your head in, and your back, requires a quality purpose-built degreaser. Select the right formulation to suit your needs from the Meguiar’s range and save yourself the hassle, stress and potential for injury.
If you are looking for a way to get started, or a perfect gift for the car aficionado in your life, Meguiar’s complete car wash kits incorporate all you need for a basic cleaning regime.
Non Paint Exterior Products
Interior plastics can be a real challenge to rejuvenate. Meguiar’s PlastX care and treatment solution features Microscopic Diminishing Abrasive Technology, capable of removing light oxidation, chemical degradation, stains and other surface contaminants in order to bring back that new car finish.
Nothing is worse than a grubby, grimy interior. Meguiar’s Quik Interior Detailer is the perfect remedy for when things get a bit janky, also available as convenient wet wipes you can keep in the car ready for any unfortunate occurrences and in bulk liquid form for when a more thorough and frquent clean is required.
We all know windows are real panes to keep clean, and are the place where dirt, debris and the build-up of foreign matter most visibly detracts from the appearance of your ride. Meguiar’s range of glass cleaners will have your glasshouse looking it’s best in no time.
Possibly the hardest part of your exterior to get looking like new after several years out in the whether are your headlights. Unfortunately, no amount of scrubbing is likely to bring them back to their former glory, and they’re real hard to miss. Thankfully, Meguiar’s headlight restoration kits are available, and the perfect way of eking a few more years of service out of your tired old set before you are forced to dig into your pocket for a new set, or you upgrade your vehicle to a newer, more desirable model.
While garaging your vehicle, never parking under trees and looking after your vehicle like a newborn child certainly helps keep it looking young, even the most well-kept car will show it’s age eventually. Even if the panels are straight, the paint is spotless and everything else in good order, your rubbers and trim pieces can be a tell tail sign how long in the tooth it is. Like all good cosmetics regimes, concealer inevitably becomes a part of the mix when time starts winning the battle and entropy takes over. When this inevitably occurs, Meguiar’s rubber and trim detailer and dressing is a truly powerful tool to have in your arsenal, able to hide the ravages of time.
As the part of your ride that meets the road, is exposed to the most contaminants, and which has the hardest, harshest life, your wheels and tyres are always an area when a little of bit of work goes a long way. The Meguiar’s range of wheel and tyre cleaning products are just the thing to keep your rolling stock in good nick. Don’t forget to grab one, or both, of Meguiar’s wheel brushes also. Your knuckles will thank you for it!
Meguiar’s Hybrid Ceramics
Paint protection products have exploded onto the market in recent years, with every car cosmetics company seemingly producing their own variation on the technology. Some recommend eliminating any trace of a particular substance prior to applying a ceramic coating, others integrate that very same substance into their ceramic coating products. Digging down into it, one could be forgiven for finding the whole segment more than a little confusing.
Meguiar’s, backed by one of the world’s most advanced chemical science companies, provides piece of mind the formulation they offer is more than just a marketing gimmick. Their Hybrid Ceramic products provide excellent water beading performance, superior UV protection, increased chemical resistance, high durability and incredible ease of application, backed by the know how you can only get from a company like 3M.
Meguiar’s Hybrid Ceramic family of products consists of five easy to use products, a wash and wax, spray wax, liquid wax, detailer and paint coating treatment kit. No matter how you would like to apply a ceramic treatment to your vehicle, whether you would like it in a pump pack to spray on, a liquid or paste to rub on or integrated into the cleaning or washing process, you can be assured Meguiar’s have a product suitable for your needs. Meguiar’s advanced Si02 chemistry is ceramic coating made easy, taking the guesswork out of getting your duco looking as good, and lasting as long, as possible.
Meguiar’s Interior Products
Did you know there’s a distinction to be made between fabric and upholstery? We didn’t. Not until we started working with Meguiar’s anyway. Fabric is exactly what you think it is, but upholstery is specific to furniture. This distinction is important when it comes to your vehicle’s interior, as the way you clean your seats is quite different to the way you clean the carpet. The products used to clean fabric and those used to clean upholstery are quite different indeed. Leather is an animal all it’s own also, and Meguiar’s have a range of leather cleaners and reconditioners perfectly suited to getting your saddles looking and smelling like new. Speaking of smelling like new, no matter how much of a clean freak you might be, car deodorisers will inevitably be of some use.
With the sight and smell of your soft interior finishes sorted that just leaves your interior hard surfaces. Constant exposure to the hot Australian sun, along with the general wear and tear experienced by any daily driven vehicle, can leave your dash, door cards and other hard surfaces looking a bit second hand. Meguiar’s interior detailing and protection solutions are great for rejuvenating these areas, while Meguiar’s high gloss protectant is ideal for breathing new life into your interior vinyl, rubber and plastics.
Meguiar’s Marine Products
Whether you are into skiing, wakeboarding, jetskiing, fishing or just a bit of recreation or leisure out on the water, Meguiar’s marine care range should be on your radar. Meguiar’s oxidation remover, cleaner wax, and colour restorer is just the ticket to clean and help protect your dingy, boat, barge, yacht or troller from the corrosive effects of salt water and other contaminants encountered in our rivers and estuaries and out on the open ocean.
