Ok, I couldn't find the #24 polish, I think I'm gonna use the Meguire's Step 2 Polish instead.

You mean, # 26 wax????

The #2 polish is for older paint jobs.......I'd research it out before you buy. Call Meguiar's, they have a good tech support line.

Yes, the #26 wax........I meant the #7, not the 24. Not one vendor sells the 7 or 26 (professional line in general), so I'm kinda stuck in that matter. I guess I'll have to resort to something else then.

Better yet, Meguiar's products are available locally. (Kragen's, Autozone)

No shipping charges...

I believe the "Gel" (it's not really a gel by the way) comes in the white/gold bottle. I believe it has more cleaning power.

I'm currently using that.
