Default Meguiars #16

My son-in-law is out of the #16. He has been trying to replace it as it is the ony wax he uses as a topper. I don`t think it is produced any more. Does anyone know for sure or where a can or two could be found. I would like to give him some as a gift.
Thanks

As Per Mike Phillips, Jan 20th, 2005 at 11:05 PM

Discontinued Products Announcement from Meguiars.

As of January 1st 2005, new V.O.C. laws have forced manufactures such as Meguiars™ to reformulate existing products or discontinue manufacturing them in order to comply with the E.P.A. Below is a list of products in Meguiars™ Professional Line that have been discontinued. When the current inventory of these products has been depleted they will no longer be available.


M0216 & M0201 Fine-Cut Cleaner - (Both 16oz and gallon sizes)
M1611 Professional Paste Wax
M9616 Medallion Premium Leather Care
M9716 Medallion Premium Paint Cleaner
M9816 Medallion Premium Paint Protection
M26 Hi Tech Yellow Wax in the paste version will not be discontinued


You might want to check around to see if you can find some????

Do a search over on autopia.org as someone recently found several cans. It is not made anymore, due to VOC regulations as Sal quoted above, and we sold out all our existing inventory, but several other great pure carnubas are available like DP's Max Wax, Poorboys Natty Blue, P21S, S100, Pinnacle Sig Series, and Pinnacle Souveran. All are extremely similar and most offer similar and even better appearance as a topper.

Had never used #16, but the #23 carnauba is fantastic - he might want to try that if he hasn't already. Really knockout results.
