To answer the questions about what Race Glaze is and what type of pads I've choosen to use:

Pads:

Meguiar's "Softbuff" cutting pad # W-7006 and "Softbuff" finishing pad # W-9006 both of which are foam and velcro backed for quick change.

My reasoning for not using the "Softbuff" buffing pad is that I wanted to keep things as gentle as I can. The finishing pad works just fine in this regard after using a cutting pad.

Race Glaze products are just another in a long line of products one can use. I use them due to my experiance at the body shop that fixed several scratches on my new 330i. They also are the ones that have the contract to repair, all BMW's from one of the local BMW dealerships in the Tacoma, Washington area. I figure if someone that has been detailing and fixing cars for over 15 years uses it, then I can as well.

But don't get me wrong, there are many different products on the market and this forum has made it easy in that we can find JUST the right one, that works best for us!
