i do everything by hand.
first i washed my car, then i used the 3M hand glaze (it didnt say i had to leave it on the car for a certain amount of time and i only put it on the areas that had light scratches and where i had the scuff mark), then i used meguiers carnubea paste wax and applied it.
at first i thought it took the scuff mark and scratches off, but the next day when i got it in some sunlight, i noticed it didnt to jack.
thanks guys

i would think that glaze, is too light of a polish to take out scratches/scuffs... id recomend something from meguiars for that... maybe Scratch X...

3M hand glaze is more for filling light sctratches and spiderwebbing.
If the scratches aren`t too deep then you might want to try ScratchX.
I would also suggest clicking on the " learn! " button at the top of the page and also downloading the free detailing guide.
Hope this helps,
