New Meguiars Paint Protect

This new product from Meguirs looks very interesting, it almost sounds too good to be true. It's $10 for 16 ounces, goes on like a wax except it's wife on wipe off (no hazing) so sounds super easy, and it says you can get many cars out of a single bottle. It's said to be super hydrophobic, and lasts for a solid year!!!!! At $10 a bottle remember!!!!

Like I said almost sounds too good to be true very interested to learn more about this new product.

Yeah, this sounds like the 800 lb gorilla in the room.

Edit: It seems that "looks" are not this product's strong suit. It seems to be targeted at the people who wax their car (and wash it?) once a year. I wonder if it will wind up being a topper for the enthusiast market.

Yeah, I was thinking it was probably more of a topper too, or even as an LSP after full paint correction. That much protection at that price point is pretty impressive though.

Yeah, maybe a base with a "looks" LSP on top...wait...that sounds like a coating strategy. This is a consumer-line product, so I'm not going to get my hopes up that it will be of that much interest to us "Geeks".

It may not be for us and our cars, but it sounds like a great upsell/add-on item for those of us in business detailing. Especially for those customers who are only once a year customers!
