Hi Mr Chef, to Autopia.

Wow, that's one long intro. Lots going on, I'll pick out a couple things ...

Is this #1 Medium Cut Cleaner or Deep Crystal "step 1" Cleaner? Meg's doesn't recommend #1 MCC be used with a PC. But hey, if it worked, it worked.

#9 is really mild. If there were individually visible scratches before hand #9 usually won't remove them. But as you found the space in between them will get nicely shiny.

A glaze with no cutting action doesn't need to break down.

Use less, work a smaller area, don't let it dry. Just rub it in and wipe it off.

Yup. #26 is great.

That's curious, clay should have taken that off. Perhaps you should try to work the clay more.

Like I said earlier, don't let a glaze (or a cleaner, cleaner/polish or compound) dry. Only waxes need to dry.
