So when using the 3M hand glaze...

do you apply your regular detailing product (Zaino in my case) right over the glaze?

And, how affective is this stuff if applied/removed by hand? I'm not sure I I would have a polisher at my disposal.

Thanks

Hand glaze goes on great by hand...lol. I wax on top

of the hand glaze. Gives a really nice wet appearance.

It's a micro-fine polishing compound RoberTTo.....

Works fine by hand (hence the name eh?) Wax or Zaino on top. It's the liquid equivalent of claying the car...

I do steps to remove fine scratch then hand glaze, IMHO, the hand

glaze fills in the part of the fine scratches that may remain and nourishes the car. Omega hand glaze tells you to rub on and then let sit for 15 minutes or so befor buffing off.

I know you have said this before...

but what exactly are those steps you do before applying the hand glaze? I do the normal dawn, clay bar, etc. Do you do anything additional.

Could you help me Denny? Pwetty pwease, Tank you :-)

Wash, either clay bar (only twice a year unless something really gangy

is on the car), paint cleanse (Pinnacle has this, don't know what Zaino calls it), hand glaze, wax, after buffing out wax, a light spritz of water and another buff. Dat's it...pretty simple.
