Video: All about Meguiar's M105, M101 and M100 Compounds

[Hoytman]

Video was really informative. However, Meguiar's seems to have 3 duo's and I wonder if there's a video somewhere that goes into the same detail as the above, with 'older' Meguiar's products (duo's).

We have three (3) DUO's so-to-speak:

(1.)M100/M101/M105(either of these) then M205 to complete a "duo"... per these three following links...
Meguiars M100 Pro Speed Compound
Meguiars M101 Foam Cut Compound, meguiars compound, m101 compound, meguiars foam cut compound
Meguiars M105 Ultra-Cut Compound 32 oz.

(2.)M95 then M80 as a "duo"...per Meguiars Mirror Glaze #95 Speed-Cut Compound

(3.)M85 then M83 as a "duo"...per Meguiars Mirror Glaze #85 Diamond Cut Compound 2.0

I can't help but wonder if there are times when these 'other' (read...older duo's) would be the choice of product to use on a given project by one of the four gentlemen in that informative video comparing the SMAT products, or are these 'older' duo's just that....older and sold for those who are used to using them and may not be familiar with the newer offerings.

The reason I bring this up is for the newbies who might be doing research before spending money that they don't have on numerous products (within a brand) when two would suffice. These thoughts, and this post, is intended to keep newbies from buying needless products in a quest to find something (a duo) that will work on 99% of the auto's they may ever see.

Is there ever a time when any of the four men in that video would use an older duo over one of the more modern duo's?

Perhaps all four men could respond here on their own and give us their opinion.

No me....

I can't imagine the other guys using any of the older products either unless they didn't have access to new products.

I watch this video at least once every other week.

I think some of those older "duos" of Meguiar's may use diminishing abrasives, but I'm not sure all of them do, but I'm guessing they are.

If those Meguiar's products are DAT compounds/polishes, then what separates them or makes them different from using the Pinnacle Duo, which IFR correctly are also DAT compounds/polishes? You seem to like and recommend the Pinnacle Duo quite often, which seem easy to use and I like the results I've seen in your demonstrations.
