Welcome to the Meguiar's RU-vid Channel.
Patrick, our resident videographer and photographer has been with us 5 months now and has NO IDEA how to take care of his car.
Many people like Patrick can sometimes get lost in the sea of car care products. What do I wash my car with? How can I keep it clean after I've washed it? It's the simple things that we want to help and educate you on.
So, introducing "Detailing 101". A step by step guide on the basics of car care, featuring Patrick and his BMW E36. During this series you'll see us educate Patrick on the most simple ways to Wash, Clean & Prep, Polish, Protection and Maintain his car.
Our aim is to share with you the simplest forms of car care, whether you're a non car guy, a car enthusiast, or someone that just wants to further their knowledge about detailing or the Meguiar's product range.
After all that hard work removing the scratches and swirls, making your pain super glossy and reflective, it would be a real shame to see it go straight back to how it was before. Hence why we wax the car. In the past this stage of the detailing process has been the most resented. "Wax is so hard to take of" "Waxing takes too long"
Well, in this video we learn the best and most efficient way to wax your car and protect all that hard work done previously.

I just want to say how much i love this series. Having a beginner learning from a pro, asking questions and getting advice as they go is just great. Ive watched all these videos and have goten great tips even though ive detailed my own cars for 25 years...youre never too old to learn as ive never had to use a compound until a year or two ago when i first came across this series. Great work mates!

Thumbs up from Germany! I learnt such a lot from this series in the past few weeks...I have been using Meguiar's products in the 90s and early 2000s and I have just begun to put some more time into care care and detailing again. I was quite confused by the many different products on the market but the Meguiar's UK videos and also the short tutorials by Meguiar's Germany brought back my confidence that I chose the right brand. Thanks so much!

I've done a fair amount of car-care over the years, and whilst, as stated, some of it will be known to those that aren't just starting out, I've still gained a good few tips (hash-tag polishing for example!) which are now part of my routine.... keep up the great work guys!!! :)

Instead of using Ultimate wax could I use Hybrid Ceramic Wax instead? I have the Ultimate Compound and Polish.

Is wax applied via a dual action once it’s been compounded?

@Handle-business 5 лет назад

So I opted to get the liquid ultimate wax, I noticed it has a hand applicator in the box. How much do I need to apply to the hand applicator to do the whole front end?

@meguiarsuk 5 лет назад

so on an average sized car we suggest a pound coin size will do half a bonnet.

@markone3093 2 года назад

I have watched the 101 series through to this point and don’t think I have missed the point I am asking about. I have a brand new VW and want to keep it looking good as long as I can. Obviously it came out of the dealers looking nice and shiny but it has only had the basic treatment, by which I mean a wash and polish. I doubt they waxed it and it was definitely not ceramic coated. So my question is, should I do the compound stage to strip off whatever they used or should I just go straight in with polish and wax stages?

@soontirfel9219 Год назад

Seeing how this comment was left a year ago, at this stage it would be good to use a light compound, followed by a polish, and finally a wax to add a layer of protection. Having worked in the make ready department at a dealership, I can promise with high percentage the dealership did not do a polish and wax. Make ready procedures involve a basic wash and removal of all sticker protectants.

Quik waxes are generally a top up of your previous wax. Usually lasting around 2 weeks.

@klaasbeunhaas5242 3 года назад

You used ultimate Quick detailer after you finished can you also use Ultimate Quick Wax ? Its just to clean right and the more wax the more protection right ?

@soontirfel9219 Год назад

You can use the Ultimate Quick wax, but it's designed as a maintainer. The layer of protection it will provide on a freshly waxed surface is minimal.

@GH3_Posh 5 лет назад

Thanks for the videos, I do enjoy these and "The Day in the Bay" stuff. I do have a question, why don't you panel wipe after polishing? Surely the wax won't bond to the polishing oils?

The Ultimate paste wax is one of our flagship waxes. It gives the most gloss and great length of protection.

@Happytruth 2 года назад

After you’ve waxed it then the next time you wash it do you still need to use the usual products you use as I use the ceramic wax spray?

@soontirfel9219 Год назад

After you have applied a good base layer of protection, spray wax's are great to maintain protection and prolong the life and need to apply another coating of protection.

@jasontotalwar 5 лет назад

so never done any of this before been told you cant wax anything plastic like bumpers etc is this true car in question is a bmw e46 330ci in black?

@meguiarsuk 5 лет назад

If they are painted bumpers then yes you can. If they are exposed plastic then I'd suggest the ultimate black

@paul-fk7de 2 года назад

Just a question when waxing is it always necessary to clay bar just unsure if give it a really good was then apply wax ??

@soontirfel9219 Год назад

That really depends on the type of protection you're looking for. Ideally, if you're going to clay bar your vehicle, you would want to follow it up with a compound/polish and then wax the vehicle. If your paint is in great condition and little to no settlement build up exist, it is not necessary to clay bar before applying wax.

@LodgeMan2011 3 года назад

is Ultimate a "cleaner wax"?

@ratlookdetailing9241 5 лет назад

I clean my car every week, I also have a few cars I look after for others. I’ve still enjoyed watching the videos. I don’t have Meguiars stuff but I’d like to try a few so it was good to watch to see how they performed. Will be good to see more if you carry on with it.

@soundskindafishy 4 года назад

Great video! I have a question though. I bought the Meguiars NXT wax and I want to know what to do with the provided applicator pad after applying the wax. Do I have to clean it or wash it before I use it after some weeks?

@davey3765 3 года назад

These video's have been invaluable. Ultimate Car Wax is really great but ive never buffed and polished before using it and didnt know there was a liquid. Im sold.

@lambbosbread123 5 лет назад

@swift4311 2 года назад

Can I use the was paste on buffer machine instead on hand?

@soontirfel9219 Год назад

Absolutely! Just make sure you're using a soft/finishing pad designed for wax/sealant applications. Also, if you're using a DA polisher, you want to make sure it's on the lowest speed.

Hi, is possible to buff a paste wax with a dual action polisher? Some waxes are an absolute nightmare one they've hazed. Cheers

@meguiarsuk 5 лет назад

A duel action polisher isn't designed to remove wax, all of the Meguiar's paste waxes with a thin coat applied to the surface should be easy to remove with a microfibre towel. The main benefit for having a DA Polisher is defect removal.

Can the waterless wax be used for just a wax aswell? I know dumb question

It is best to use the waterless wax after you already have a good protection coat. It is designed to be used as a maintainer in between wax applications.

Yes, in fact, it is not ideal to apply a ceramic coat after you have applied a wax. You can add a wax after you have done the ceramic coating, however, the ceramic coating offers a better protection that wax would.

If I apply a spray wax over a paste wax will it make it any more protected or am I just wasting product?

@soontirfel9219 Год назад

Spray wax should not be applied to a waxed vehicle on the same day. However, if a week has gone by and maybe it rained or weather conditions were not favorable, a spray wax can be added after a wash to MAINTAIN the protection of the wax.
