Glad you had a solid experience with M888, Eddie. FWIW, this coating was bench-marked exclusively against only top tier big brand certified installer professional coatings. Durability is in that realm as a result. The original intent was for this to require certification as well, but as you so aptly pointed out - the application is stupid easy and we felt it would be silly to require training. Also worth mentioning - you can go 24+ hours and still wipe a high spot off with this coating. It is VERY unique in that sense. If you have any other questions, feel free to ping me. -Markus Kleis aka MK, Meguiar's Portfolio Innovation Leader

@CirclesAreRound Месяц назад

@@MarkusKleis you ain’t lying, I applied the coating to the whole car first then I wiped it off 😭

I coated my truck with M888 and love the how it looks. The gloss is banger! I would say it has a warm glow like carnauba wax. Very forgiving during application. The M799 bead booster is a must as it keeps the gloss going. I look forward to the updates of M888 and your impressions further down the road. All the best!

@Ecdetails 25 дней назад

Thanks for the comment bro m888 was real impressive and thr gloss it gave was top notch how is it going with out the topper for you ?

@anthonys.976 25 дней назад

@@Ecdetails Well the M799 topper went on two weeks after my first wash. For me, M799, is a gloss enhancer after each wash...about every other week. I view the M888 coating as a product helping the paint clean easier/faster so I can then apply more M799. What I enjoy about the M888 is its ability to fill in minor marks and "level" the paint if you will. I think this "leveling" is a major aspect missing in other coatings and has a direct link to appearance. I picked M888 knowing a simple polish was going to be all I needed, not a multi-step, hours long approach.

@Shane9_9_00 Месяц назад

I dont play with a ton of glass cleaners personally but its fair to say ive tried a couple. I usually clean them like a window tinter so like with a squeegee and a towel. For a typical glass cleaner that works best with a rag I actually like the diy which caught me off guard when I tried it. Invisible glass in a can is definitely great as well and I always have it around.

888 self heals! Seriously it does. They don’t promote it that way but I have done it several times on micro scratches and it works

@Greg_P611 Месяц назад

I did 2 layers 2 hours between coats. I’m not sure if that played a role in it, but I did some testing with it before I applied it, and I lightly scratched it then took a heat gun to it and it disappeared.

Thanks again for another killer video. As far as I'm concerned, Invisible glass is the OG glass cleaner that just works. I have never used any other glass cleaner in my life. My mom cleaned the house windows once a week in the 90's with that stuff. Beware that the aerosol foaming version you used is much better than the normal trigger sprayer version in my experience. Others may argue that. Maybe worth doing a comparison video on the aerosol foaming vs trigger sprayer versions to get your opinion. Can't say I have found that comparison video or even a short with the two.

Eddie- those scratches don’t look any worse than some I’ve seen Yvan remediate using gold standard and pad with 5-5-5 method. What do you think? What I’d like to see in these correction videos is some data. Paint thickness and maybe even gloss meter before and after. I know you can see some difference with the eye, but what has really been done? And how much more could you do? Not picking this apart, just curious. Thanks for all your good work. Always enjoyable and informative BH

@Ecdetails Месяц назад

Hey bob These were finger nail deep it was pass the clear the goal here was to blend it in the light you can see it if up close 5-5-5 wouldn’t of done what sand paper did I took the hills abd valleys and knocked it down making it so when the light reflected you didn’t see the white For rids and such - I would do the 5-5-5 method. Also I did a paint gauge reading and sent it to the customer I’ll start adding those to the video to give you data On the side where I use a foam pad that a heavy compound and blue pad remove the clear coat scuff
