Review:McKees 37 Polishes (Fast Cut, Fast Polish, Jewling Wax)

[Joe@NextLevelDetail]

i have had the pleasure of first trying these products on the beautiful 1940 Ford that was on competition ready, shout out to Bob Mckee, Mike Phillips! and my awesome Team (WON BEST PAINT AT SHOW!!!)

long story short i was blown away by these polishes, i could not believe how great they performed, how easy they were to use, and the results they gave.

the test subject was my father in laws 1978 Corvette Pace Car. (he bought it a few months ago)
it was pretty bad, paint wise, and it had every defect you can name.

oxidation
water marks
swirl marks
deep scratches
bird dropping etching
etc.

my father in law is currently in florida, so i thought i would suprise him by restoring his paint! here is the test subject.











Now it was time to wash it, i didnt have a hose, bucket, water, soap, So i used Mckees 37 waterless wash!



Mckees 37 waterless wash is a great product, saved me time, and effort, after i clayed it with Mckees 37 Clay Bar.

now that the car is clean, lets look at what where up against!







the sun was kind of out, but mostly cloudy, and as well all know that is not the best time to show defects!.

so here is what the cars condition was but at night time, where my flash light illuminates every defect.







here is a 50/50 with Mckees 37, Fast Compound, Fast Polish



later that night i took the car to the local, coin wash.

and here is that 50/50 i did sorry for the funky lighting






Compound: Mckees 37 with Meguiars MF cutting pad
Polish: Mckees 37 Fast Polish Rupes Yellow Pad

that is what i decided to use for the entire car.

here is the front bumper before condition. so i brought out the Rupes LHR75E for the front bumper






this was after compounding



this was after working that side of the bumper for about 3-4 mins, it took out every defect possible. (you can see a slight haze from the MF pad)



this was after the polishing step.







i then Compounded the whole car with Mckees 37 Fast Cut
then polished with Mckees 37 Fast Polish.

these were the results i got.







it was now time for the third and last step.

Mckees 37 Jeweling Wax


















ALL DONE!























and these 2 are my favorite shots! right after i wiped off the jeweling wax!









this car came a LONG way





Conclusion: these polishes have far exceeded my expectations, they knocked this line out of the park. and i could not recommend this line, and polishes enough.

Pros for Fast Cut Compound
- Long working time (and that's a understatement more like infinity buffing cycle)
- no dusting
- easy wipe off
- cuts and finishes amazing.

Cons: i dont have enough of it

Pros for Fast Polish
- long working time.
- no dusting (very important for me, i do not like having to clean or wash a car due to dusting with chances to scratch the surface)
- easy wipe off
- finishes amazing. (will do a separate review for this as a one step soon)

Cons: they dont offer gallon sizes yet.


Jeweling Wax
this product i cant stress enough on how cool it really is.
how many times have you wanted to jewel a car but that was another step, more time, product , and effort, then you have to do your protection step after? "aint nobody got time for dat!"

this product is very versatile, because you can apply it just like a traditional wax by machine, or you can work it like a fine cut polish, and jewel the paint to a high gloss, and leave protection behind in one easy step.

on this project i really took my time and worked it in. i used the GG6 with a Blue Hex Logic Pad on a speed of 3.

Pros
- smells great, and looks like my daughters yogurt!
- gives you the benefits of a jeweling step, while leaving protection behind. (skipping a step)
- a little goes a long way, once the pad is primed with product you only need a few drops. for each panel
- easy wipe off
- awesome crisp reflections

Cons
i dont have a silo filled with this stuff.


i highly recommend this product to not only Pros, newbies and enthusiasts, this product is so easy to work and use, virtually anyone with a porter cable and a decent pad can get show car results, Due to how easy these products are to use.

these are not your mid tier, ok polish line.

these polishes are the real deal, and are among the elite polishes autogeek has to offer.

Mckees 37 polish line is now my top 2 favorite Compound, and Polish lines out today.

sorry for the bad pics, they were from my cell phone, and i did all of this outside, not in my shop! (sure was a challenge)

What a nice Merlin shot opportunity for several of your photos. You did excellent work on that car.

Ok, I have to ask. What is a "Merlin Shot"? Working magic on black paint?

You hit a home run on this one. Nice work and you probably just sold a couple hundred dollars worth of McKee's with that stellar write up. Between that 40 Ford that Mike and the team polished and this Vette, the jewelling wax is really piquing my interest.

Thanks for the great review
