    Re: These are the twins!

    105 and 205 have been my go to for years. Recently I switched to CarPro Clear Cut. It replaces the 105 perfectly. But it finishes much better and less dust. I have some small bottles of Griots creams. They work good but I didn’t feel I got as good and quick of a cut. This is a completely trashed black tundra crew max I did a few weeks ago. ClearCut and 205 used. Followed by CarPro reflect then Cq 3.0.

    Re: These are the twins!

    Just to chime in....

    First I hope you don't mind but I edited your post and put some LINE BREAKS in-between your chunks of text to make it easier for ANYONE to read.

    The human eye struggles to drop down from the end of one sentence to the beginning of the next sentence after about 3 sentences in a paragraph. Always amazed at how many people just type in chunks.

    Then I hit the [ENTER] key and put a space between each of your pictures to separate them out. I use TapaTalk all the time and do all of the above in TapaTalk, it just takes a few seconds.

    As for the Griot's compounds/polishes - they are truly top notch quality. I've been teaching detailing classes with these products ever since they were introduced and no matter what the car, the results are always top notch and more important consistent.

    Trashed indeed!

    It looks like It's been through a car wash located around a bunch of dirt roads.

    The wash I owned had sand particles embedded in the rocker panel cloth when I took it over.

    Very nice save!

    Re: These are the twins!

    I'm not going to argue that the above GRIOT's products are working for YOU............
    I'd be very interested to know who actually MFG's them??

    Do you actually believe that GRIOT's produces these products??

    I "THINK" that GRIOT's buy much of their Products (ready to use) in 55 Gal Drums and repackages
    into pretty retail Bottles!!!!!

    Ive invested too much $$ in Meg's 100,105 & 205 too just shove those bottles to the back of my shelf
    and start over with HD, Jescar or GRIOT's

    I will admit that I'm only an amateur and if this is a "professional" conversation I'll step aside.

    Re: These are the twins!

    Griots mfgs their own chemicals so why not their own waxes/sealants/polishes/compounds. Griot's is one of the best companys out there, period.

    There's nothing wrong with nice bottles, their caps alone make using their products worthwhile.

    I get the invested part but there are so many great products out there. It’s kind of a loss to you if you are not willing to at least try them. Who knows, you may find something that works much better for you. I always try to stay open minded in this business. There is a cool samples thread here and it’s a way to try something new out by trading with fellow members.

    On the flip side of the products you use work for you then I guess “don’t fix what isn’t broke”

    It's not a pro conversation, just a discussion with a bunch of people who appreciate the quality products that griots is now producing for the detail industry.
    Before you "think" you know something,
    Research before you speak.

    It’s a ParkZone RC Corsair. I have a basement full of different planes. Still a kid I guess. The Corsair I keep in the garage. It’s my go to plane for throwing in the back of the 4Runner.
