Here are the key points made:
- If a car is detailed properly then there will be no need to use a glaze to fill imperfections.
- Using a glaze to ‘beautify' a car…darken its appearance and give it a wetter look…may be a good idea if you are ‘showing' your car.
- Glaze will wash off fairly quickly so ensure that you don't apply and then immediately wash your car.
- Good practice is to apply a glaze and then apply a wax or sealant.
- Depending on the glaze you use, it may or may not offer protection…in general, glazes do not offer any protective qualities.
- Glaze does not replace polishing!
- If a car is detailed properly then there will be no need to use a glaze to fill imperfections.
