I always apply via UDM with a blue pad. This ensures a more even spread and you use less product. I always do the whole car and after I am done I buff it off with a MF. I wouldn't say that I burnish it till all the haze is gone, but when using the UDM, a lot of it does clear up, leaving very little to buff off.

Thanks Doc, I'll try to apply with a pc next time. Just got a 5.5" red ccs pad to try out.

Re: Super Wet

OK, after much procrastinating, I just ordered some DWG from Bob! Going to be the most expensive glaze in th world by the time it gets to me : but I hope it will be worth it

Already done multiple layers of UPGP on 1 car, and have 1 more to polish and top later in the month, so this should be just perfect.....

Wow. That's wet!

Ugh. I love my OS, but my addiction to trying new sealants is bound to lead me to UPGP!

Detaildoc- Do you reccomend putting the UPGP down first and then after it cures then apply the glaze or would it be ok to apply the glaze and then UPGP? I am looking for the best results so whatever you reccomend sounds good.

Thanks

Sounds good. How long do I need to wait between the Glaze to top with UPGP?

Thanks
