VM Hand Glaze vs Megs #7

I havent tried Megs #7, but I have used VM Hand Glaze, how does #7 compare to the VM, is #7 a thicker liquid than the VM.



Thanks,
 
I switched IHG to #7 a few weeks ago. #7 is easier to use than IHG. Want to know RMG is worth to try or not.
 
By Hand VM is easier than #7, #81 or RMG, all leave great wet looks, for Hand work VM has a little bit of bit which cleans up paint nicely. Both #7 and VM look great though.



RMG is my go to glaze on good shape paint now as by PC with a finishing pad it is amazing.
 
I think of #7 as a pure glaze, no cleaning ability. I think of VM as a high-grade cleaner wax. Cleans and contains some very mild (almost nonexistent) abrasives. Left untopped the VM will far outlast the #7, which comes off with the next wash.



Offhand I dunno which one is thicker/thinner. They're not all that different in that regard or I'd probably remember.



I agree that #5 is easier to use than #7 and #5 is my favorite of the Meg's pure polishes. #5 is very user-friendly but I dunno if it looks as nice as RMG, which I haven't tried yet. I'd guess that the RMG looks better. I greatly prefer #5/#7 over 3M IHG though. The IHG is my least favorite glaze.



I didn't get much hiding from VM, and somehow I just never seem to use it very often...
 
If you are itching to try one of Meguiars pure polishes, #3 Machine Glaze or #81 Hand Polish are more user friendly than #7. Compared to VM, neither is as easy to use, although the appearance is a better deeper.
 
I didn't find #7 that bad to do by hand.. Gonna have to try w/PC now.

The results were deep that is for sure

If #7 works easily enough for you I'd just stick with that. If it's not easy, try the #3/#81. If those aren't easy enough, then use #5. If #5 isn't easy enough, just give up :D
 
When i used #7 i wiped off what i could in a pass or 2, then waxed right over it.



Wiping off the wax cleared everything up.
 
Or you could try some Mother's Seal and Glaze. Gave me great results, combined with Natty's blue, it hid a lot of swirls/scratches, looked very deep, very wet and made the metalic flakes pop like no other. And its cheap. Definitly worth a try.
