    Came across a really, really good glaze recently - I couldn`t even see the buffer swirls from a nasty wool pad. The good news is you don`t even have to spend the time polishing after heavy compounding and the customer won`t even know right away. The bad news is I was the customer - had a panel repainted on my gold Landcruiser.



    I knew I was going to have to (re)buff the panel out after I had it painted, but initially I thought they did a good job...I`ve been up to my neck in details so I didn`t have time to do a wash and alcohol wipedown till now, and man, I seriously had to compound with PG twice to remove their buffer marks!

    No, I haven`t found out yet. But I should - I can never get glazes to cover up more than very minor stuff, but it seriously seems like body shops are able to get their horrible work undetected for a till it gets washed once or twice.



    It probably is Race Glaze though.

    How is this "Race glaze" compared to 3M glaze? 3M wasn`t able to cover up my micro-marring after I did my hood, oh well.
