Been using your product for years. Never been disappointed. I'm a Master Detailer at a Car dealership and we use Car Brite product. But I'll always recommend Meguiars.
Thanks for the support! 👍
Thinking about it doing this than traditional old fashioned way. It’s taking toll on my lower back.
i love my meguiars products .. i like how this company dont do sell out stuff and gimmicks like more others.... simple and clean
Thank you for your kind words! 👍
Meguiar’s is one of the few things left that seems to be passed down from father to son. Never regretted a single Meguiar’s product.
I've been using the wash/wax soap in my foam gun for a while now, it works great and leaves a shiny protective finish, my favorite combo!
👍
Thanks for the feedback.
I know been a bit since you left this review. But how much of the Ultimate Wash/Wax you put in the Foam Gun? Been using Ultimate since late 2019.
@@nighthawkj30A4 I usually eyeball it, something like 4 squeezes and fill the rest with water
@@rayyanimtiaz3792 ok Thank You ill try this.
Love to Foam
I pressure was the car 1st, apply Meguiars Gold Class car wash with foam cannon, wipe down the car with a microfiber mitt then rinse off with regular garden hose nozzle. Then dry using a few clean microfiber towels. For protection I use the Turtle Wax Seal N Shine applied after drying.
If you pressure wash first youre pushing dirt onto the paint causing micro scratches. Use foam first.
you are the best

What kind of foam gun is that you guys are using on this video ?
Now I’m even more confused than I was before 🤣🙄🤣
i prefer to use a degreaser on the wheels and paint before even pressure washing for minimal scratches
Do you have a product that will remove wax stains from plastic trim
The best we make for this is our M39 Heavy Duty Vinyl Cleaner (link below). If it is a highly textured plastic it can also help to use it with a brush for better agitation.

How many ml did you add shampoo to mixed with water?
The ratio is 5:1 which means (5 parts water and one part product). 👍
Do you sell either the foam gun or cannon? If not do you recommend a specific one?
We do not sell a foam cannon in the US. There are a few good brands out there, Karcher to name one.
Karchr
Is the gold class shampoo and conditioner PH neutral and safe for a car with ceramic coating?
Assume what you mean is ph balanced and will not strip wax or a coating. Yes, it is safe on a ceramic coating.
@@meguiars Sorry, yes that’s what I meant. Thank you for the reply.
👍
The karcher adapter does not connect to the Karcher K2 washer as it’s advertised to.
Spent an hour trying to connect the adapter and finally gave up. I found many reviews from people with the same issue.
Do not buy this kit if you own the K2 washer.
I use a foam cannon for extra lubrication. I don't waste my time with buckets.
does the foam from the foam cannon have to feel soapy when touched? I just bought a foam cannon and it is foaming decently, but when I touch the foam it does not feel soapy, maybe very slightly.. when i used buckets, I made sure it was soapy to touch, but maybe then I added a lil too much soap? not sure......
@@neometalx9 It varies by brand and the type of car soap or foam soap you're using.
Yeah i dont use buckets anymore. No pre wash just use foam cannon right away let it soak to 2-5 mins then rinse after that foam cannon again then sponge. Then rinse. Ur done
Dude you said what the foam gun does. How to use it ??? Dint say a bit 😂
1st

You didn't tell anyone how to use a foam cannon.
Absolutely useless information. Thanks for nothing.
