Question for the pros....

Hey guys i did a search first as to not piss you guys off but i didn't get any hits on the new Menzerna Glaze so thus my question continues.

I am thinking of switching from Klasse to the Wolfgang bandwagon to give it a shot. My question is this. I have a few paint swirls and scratches probably caused from my car cover.

My paint job is probably less than 9 months old its a 3 step paint process and has a total of six coats on it, 3 paint 3 clear. I want a completely and utterly swirl free and scratch free finish. The paint looks very very good now but like i said i want to be able to polish this crap totally away. My question is will Menzerna Intensive Polish be too abrasive for my new paint with very little imperfections? Should i use something else such as Medallian Premium Paint Cleaner? I don't want to use SMR because it just fills the swirls and scratches rather than completely removing them. If menzerna will not be abrasive than i intend to do the following, let me know if this will work. Thanks

AutoBathe
Menzerna Intensive
Menzerna Final
Menzerna Glaze

Wolfgang Paint Sealent

Will replacing the Wolfgang pre-wax polish step with Menzerna's glaze cause me issues with bonding? From what i have read a polish is what is supposed to be used before a final wax, but than i read again that a glaze is to do the same. So will the above work? (in theory?) Thanks

Where did you hear about this menzerna glaze?? I know menzerna released Power Gloss, but that is just a stronger polish than IP. Just curious, but if infact the did release it, a glaze shouldn't really affect the bonding of the sealant, However i have yet to try WOLFGANG, so i would not know first hand with regards to that particular product.

ah ah ah... I saw that they were bringing a consumer type line over, or at least a new line of more products. I didn't think that it was coming for another year though. I will probably be reviewing this soon, i will let you know what i come up with.

If Wolfgang requires a clean surface to bond to like Klasse or Zaino etc you might have bonding issues

Menzerna Finishing Touch Glaze is a water-based emulsion of glycerin, mineral oils and Kaolin (China Clay). Wetting oils create the liquid, shimmer of fresh paint while Kaolin clays fill and mask minor swirls and imperfections.

Jesstzn: thanks for the repsonse, i read that off the site too hehe. Wolfgang has a pre-wax cleaner that supposedly can be used to remove old wax and has very little filling capabilities, i don't know if its quite required to help it bond, that is why i would like some wolfgang guys to chime in..
