Re: Meguiar's Ultimate Compound History
Be proud, Mike, be very proud! I love hearing the history of some of the detailing world's products, processes, tools, people etc.

Re: Meguiar's Ultimate Compound History
Thanks Mike, what do you put those little pieces of sand paper ON? Did you guys use anything after the ultimate compound on the red car?
Was the red car single stage paint?
I'mean thinking of going over my car on the drivers side doors with ultimate compound 1 more time to ease up on some of the Orange peel. I know everyone says you have to wet sand it to get rid of it but I know for a fact I cleared it from my 2 favorite panels. The strongest thinget I used was m101 on a griotz finishing microfiber pad. And I didn't even have my flex or G15 back then.
I'm pretty confident that I can do it. I'll take some pics to prove it. Is it safe to assume that the clear coat is thick if the panel has orange peel on IT? Orange peel is globs of clearcoat right?

Re: Meguiar's Ultimate Compound History
Thank you, Mike!!
Love the historic aspect of the industry.
By any chance would you know when the original Porter Cable 7424, and the Flex 3401 VRG were introduced to market?

Re: Meguiar's Ultimate Compound History
Those Ultimate Compound and Swirl-X bottles must be the pride of your Meguiar's collection.
Never thought of compounding/polishing the light scratches to expose the deeper RIDS. Only makes sense. Leaves that much more clear/paint for the next RIDS to be compounded. Great advice/article as usual.

AWESOME!!!
Huh, so those cars on the bottles are the real deal and not some photoshopped examples!!!! Coolness.
Thanks for sharing this!
Mike, for real. Get a book written on the "history" of detailing, or paint correction, etc. I'd buy the first book off the press.

UC has been a proven product and i will always have a bottle in my arsenal, even if some knock it because it's a consumer product...
