Re: Some Vintage Meguiar's Products from my Collection (Lots of pictures)
Meguiar vs Meguiar'S'...I'll d#$%'d!
The label on the Black Sheep bottles was/is the same as the decal I had on my toolbox for years. Never did I realize that there was no 's'.
I got the decal at an auto/hot rod show in San Diego in '76 (or there abouts). Never used the THAT/THOSE products. But did the 'real Meguiar's.

Mike, I see 1-16-C is a prewax cleaner. I was just misinformed, I though that it was a cleaner-wax. Thank you for the response.

As far as I know, Meguiar's didn't introduce a wax for cars till 1951, that would be the MGH16, until that time, if you wanted to wax your car you would use something like Blue Coral or Simonize.
I think I explain the reason behind this somewhere in this thread or on this forum. Do a search for M08 Maximum Mold Release Wax which came out in 1950 for making Fiberglas products. M16 came out a year later, after the passing of Frank Meguiar Jr.

Hopefully sometime this year I'll return to California and bring my antique wax collection here to Florida and post some more pictures of some of the unique products in it...

Yes. The building on the glasses were their Pasadena offices before the move to Irvine...
I was told where the Pasadena office building was there is now an off-ramp to a freeway...
