Ok so I don't think we discuss detailing enough on the board so I'm starting a debate...who thinks Meguiars is better than Autoglym and why ... And vice versa? I am considering picking up Autoglym's HD wax and I've been using NXT 2.0 so far but I'm not satisfied with the durability and believe there should be better product out there. I've always used Megz and never really swayed from their products. Any experienced Autoglym users out there?

I've used both products. Meguiar's is smoother and will give a better shine, while Autoglym will last longer but requires more effort. I'd suggest a thorough pre-wax prep if you were to use Autoglym. I'm sick of those products now. I've tried so many products and can't seem to find anything I like more than Zymol. If I were to buy a product other than Meguiars and Autoglym that you're comparing, I'd only by my true favorite...Zymol. Try the Zymol HD Cleanse followed by Titanium and then see how you feel about the other products.





By the way, in the UK Autoglym is sold in the discount stores for £5

NXT 2.0 is not the best or the worst wax, but it's still my preference because its so quick and easy to apply.

I agree with you that it is easy to apply for a synthethic product.
