Re: Review - Meguiars D166 Ultra Polishing Wax
The leaving it on an hour for maximum durability, is this something you were trying out or is it stated somewhere that I have missed? I wipe it off after each section is done so far.

I could not find the actual post for this but it may have been in the facebook group where one of the Meg's guys posted that letting it sit longer on the paint adds a little longer longevity rather than wiping it off right away.

Nice, I'll have to try that next time, I've been just using it like a polish and wiping it off right away.

Re: Review - Meguiars D166 Ultra Polishing Wax
Thanks for the great review Guz! I'd be curious to hear your thoughts after trying it on black paint or softer paint.
I find myself reaching for it first when doing a 1-step on light color paints. I only use it with MF cutting pad anymore. It cuts pretty darn well with microfiber.
Despite the crummy experiences I've had with it initially, I think i'll continue buying it simply because of the cut it provides on microfiber. It's a great option for one stepping hard paints.
I did a side by side on the hood of my truck with HD Speed and D166 and based purely on water behavior HD Speed lasts around 6 weeks and D166 last 3-4 weeks. I applied both with a yellow uro-tec polishing pad and waited 45 minutes before buffing them off my hood with a microfiber towel.
Also, All I used to clean the hood of my truck was D114 @ 128:1 (waterless wash ratio) about 3 times a week.
I honestly thought both HD Speed and D166 would make it to the 2 month mark. I was a little disappointed D166 didn't last a little longer.

When do you find yourself reaching for BF One Step instead of D166?

The GUUUUUUUZZZZZZZZZZ!!!! Awesome review! BTW, D166 is now my Go-to AIO. I have Menzerna AIO as my back up now. D166 is so much easier to use. Excellent review and Keep on Rocking!

Thanks. Other than the terrible body work from having the fender fixed after someone hit on the parking lot the car looks great. The orange peel on the hood takes away from the factory finish on the rest of the car.

Thanks. If I find one I will try it out. I can't promise that since I don't do this as a side business. I suspect most AIO's fall into that similar longevity category.
