Difference between polish and glaze?

I worked with him back at that dealership and he taught me the bit of buffing I know, and he is really good. He`s already done a practice car and I`ve got three more practice ones to do for the website, and facebook page while I get my refresher in. If I get busy enough I might just hire him to buff anyway. He`s laid off, I don`t want to miss out on the work, its a win win!

This is the hood of his girlfriends car. Not perfect but getting the kinks out lol. Its been a few years for him too.. couple more practice cars and he will do alright.

A bit condescending no? The guy is just looking for some help.

andrewpenny- At the risk of sounding like a complete [jerk], those before/after pics do not engender confidence. Unless there was a good reason to stop at that point (e.g., concerns about over-thinning the clear), it looks to me like "after the first few of a great many passes". Eh, maybe I just set the bar awfully high...bit IMO he`ll need to *REALLY* ramp up his game before your feature his work on a website, much less turn him loose on a client`s car.

Again, sorry if I`m coming across badly, I don`t mean to sound like I`m hating on the guy and maybe he had a perfectly good reason to stop when he did.
