#16 over XMT Glaze

[Excessive Detail]

i have heard a couple of things about the production of #16... do they make it and just dont sell it in the us? or do they not make it anymore? this has been puzzleing me for quite sometime.

I think they just don't make it anymore, I think #26 took it palce. All I know is if I can ever find anymore I'll buy all of it.

They no longer make it due to VOC regulations. I get my cans of #16 for $22 shipped to my door.

Just for fun...

They still do make Meguiar's #16, since production facility is outside of California, they just don't sell it in U.S.

You can look in up on Ebay, or some detailing sites in U.K.
It is gonna cost you $25-30 shipped.

So why not to look for a great substitude - Collinite 476S.
It's available here, @Autogeek, and it's still on sale for $12.50 a tin (9oz).
#476S will last just as long as #16, if not longer.

Did my truck and car 2 1/2 months ago with wolfgang paint sealant,2 coats,and collinite 476,2 coats.Still beading through washes and ridiculous amounts of salt they put down on the roads here.Last 4 days have not seen much over 0 degrees farenheit.Collinite highly recommended as a winter wax,tough as nails and a decent shine to boot.

I've read a few members on autopia (vets) say that #16 slightly edge out 476 or 845 can't remeber which on durabilty.

I used to have trouble removing 16, but since I started applying by machine, its so much easier, because it foes goes on thinner. I use Wolfgangs Deep Gloss Sealant and come back the next day with 16. Then I do 16 again every few weeks, but I cheat and just do the hood, roof and trunk. In between, its wash and Liquid Souveran.

How do you like the WG/#16 combo?

I am very happy with it. After a few washings, I am not really sure how much of the WG is left, but as long as I keep throwing the 16 on top, and Liquid Souveran Spray after every wash, I should be good until I am ready to strip and start over with WG. I don't have a fixed schedule on stripping-but 10-12 washings would be what I would aim for.

Happy to see you are so "up" on 16. I do love the Souveran paste, but its the longevity issue that moved me to 16.
