In the grander scheme of things, neither Meguiars or AutoGlym are @ the top end of the market.

They are just more "commericalised".

I have some of both products, along with lots of other manufacturers.

AutoGlym went well down the list in recent times as other manufacturers just simply produced better products. I have most of theire products somewhere within my range.

However, the High Definition Wax is the start of their revival. They produced this product in conjunction with the lads over @ DetailingWorld as they were being slated over there. I got one of the first "packs" of HD wax and it is still going now. In the beginning, there was something like a 5 week wait to get hold of the product as the professionals over @ DetailingWorld deemed it of such quality that everyone was putting orders in.

@ the end of the day, most of it is personal opinion and different paints. For example, I do not rate the Megs. 3-stage, prefering only the 3rd stage as I believe that other products do the 1st and 2nd stages better.

Another product that you could try, which is very good as a wax is the Bilt Hamber AutoBalm. Very good product, although it does take some time to apply and remove The results speak for themselves really.

I do remember going to one of the DW "open days" and watching the demonstration on 2 different waxes applied to the same vehicle by the same person, one per side. One wax costs about £12 and the other around £140. The £12 wax came out better
