Which #26 to use after #7 Liquid or paste?

**Mark Preus** · 12-27-2009, 05:18 PM

Im about to order some Meguiars #26 and was curious on which one to order. Im using #7 before I wax and was wondering should I use the paste or the liquid #26?

I like the paste version, and never heard of any compatibility issues under the show car glaze.

Either one will produce the same results...just a matter of preference in application.

I prefer the liquid as you can apply it with a DA too.

I use the #26 Liquid (applied via DA, red pad) over the #7 with good results.

Doesn't matter, both work fine.

I like the paste version better but to be honest I like Megs #16 alot better

Really? The car is candy apple red and I thought I would try the traditional m7 then m26. I will also look into #16 though

M26 will tend to bring out the richness of color as compared to M16.

Either liquid or paste, with liquid you can apply by machine and machine application is more even and consistent than hand application.
