Shine and Review: White Camry Meet White Wax

[cleanmycorolla]

My wifey had a little family get together today. All her brothers and sisters mom and dad. About a month back my brother in law, who knew about my love for shiny cars asked if I could work for him on his Camry. He loves the car, it's white, it's 9 years old but he loves it. Originally I had planned to do a big two step polish for him, because he loves it so much, however time just wasn't working out for either of us. So I decided that before our get together tonight, he should bring the car over early and I could give it a one step AIO style. My choice was Meguiars White Wax. For those that don't know this is an OTC product by Megs designed for white to light cars. It's an AIO, it's smat, I'd say same cut as M205 and it cleans really well. Plus it leaves behind some protection. So I figured what better to do with 4 1/2 hours then hook my brother in law up.

This isn't the most detailed review and show and shine, apologies I wanted to get this up before our night started!

Process and products

CG Wash and Gloss 2BM Style
CG Sig Series Wheel Cleaners on Wheels and Tires
CG All Clean + on moderately soiled areas near the bumpers
Nanoskin Fine Grade sponge for Decon
Auto Finesse Iron Out for Decon
Meguiars White Wax
Griots 6"
5 White Flat 5.5" LC Pads
2 4" Megs Polishing pads
DP Glass Resotrer
Pinnacle Glass Sealant

Anyway here are some befores, after wash and Decon. Sorry didn't have the quality camera available, just my iphone but as you can see, the paint is dull, lifeless, and just uninspiring. Again, I wasn't going for total correction, I wanted to bring out as much shine as possible in the quickest amount of time.

Lol I kept this one tine piece until the end to show him how badly oxidized and dull the paint was.

All in all I really was impressed with what Megs white wax could do. Really worked well nice work time, the price was right, really just impressed. And most importantly the bro in law was stoked.

Now I am off to enjoy my evening. Sorry fort he half assed review and shine but that's life.

Happy Weekend all

Great work and job well done! :dblthumb2:

I love the White Wax as well, it's an over the counter AIO that works !

This looks like a skid mark...

Lol it was actually oxidized paint and weirdness. I left I there right before I finished it off to show him what his white paint should really look like. Obviously I cleared that up before finishing. And yes it looks like a skidder lol

Meguiar's hit a couple of home runs with their new AIO's.
You hit one as well...with the White Wax...on this vehicle!

Looks nice.

I bought the Meg's Black Wax for my black RAV , it really gave it a deep, shiny finish.
I had to go over a few times when wiping it off, more so than my NXT., but once it was all removed the car looked super clean.
Great filler too.
First thing I noticed was the weird texture it had coming out of the foil tube.

I bought the white and black waxes, didn't have a chance to try them yet, but I learned something after opening the tubes, store them with the cap up, or else some oil can easily leak out of the cap... it made a real mess in my wax bag! seeing the results, cant wait to try it myself!

I took it immediately out of the tube put it in a bottle!

I am using WW on my white Sentra, and it IS amazing stuff isn't it? I love how easy it comes off as opposed to Collinite 845. Car looks awesome, BTW. Nice job!

Thanks! It really is great. I hate the tube though! Post pics when you're done!

That really brought life back to that paint!

Indeed it did right? I was kind of shocked at first but as usual Megs doesn't disappoint. Really did a good job. And I think I got the tube on sale for $7.99 at Target.
