Are Autoglym products any good?

I recently went to a local Canadian Tire (yes I know...) and saw that they have some new car care products which finally includes Megs UQW. What I found really interesting though is the addition of Autoglym products including HD wax. Now I've never heard of that company and was wondering if any of you guys have.

I did a quick search on here and nothing came up so I'm guessing that no one really uses them. Is it because their products are not good, or just not available? Any input would be appreciated.

I have the custom wheel cleaner and that thing rocks. Spray it on, the bubbles turn brown even on the tires. Got it on sale for $9.69.

It has a PH of 13 or so I believe. Non acid but is alkaline.

Thought you said it was great? And why would you need 5 gallons?

Maybe he wants to bathe his wheels (?)

On a serious note though - would you go Autoglym over Megs if buying OTC products?

From the results I have seen with the Autoglym CWC i would not hesitate to pick it up over the Meguiars OTC wheel cleaners.

at walmart and canadian tire there's only a few autoglym products. i'd definitely pick their wheel cleaner, super resin polish, and wax over any of the meguiars oTC stuff.
