1Z Glans Wax

I recently cleaned/prep my car with Metallic Polish - started to quit after that since it looked so good, but I applied a coat of Glanz Wax, let it set up for a hour, wiped off fairly easy (I'm notoriously heavy handed ok) and hot damn! It looked like I added another layer of clear coat. I've tried a lot of products but this combo is my new secret recipe, now I wish I had ordered a bunch of their other products. My wife used the Cockpit Premium on her van, and that made the dash look the best I've seen it since the day we brought it home. I also got the Intensiv Polish, can't wait to use it - got my tips on proper technique (don't go over 1K rpm) and polish til it's clear.

Re: 1Z Glans Wax

Keep it up man! Another nice feature about this product is that you can wipe it on and remove it immediately. I've also gone right to a nuba topper and with no problems. I'm going to try aplying it via rotary and a LC red pad 1 of these days(I've been told heat works great with sealants).

Let us know how durable it is for you.

Re: 1Z Glans Wax

Funny you mention Glanz wax...mine will be here tomorrow....I had a 4 ox tester a few years back and really liked it...so I decided to grab it again...its also a nice topper for some sealants....for a synthetic wax it sure looks nice....like you said..it like you sprayed clear coat on...

I still have some of the Pro line Metalic polish....in the round tin can....a little different than the newer stuff....it has no wax in it...just a nice polish....still can be had also....

PC is fine. A little goes a long way.

Re: 1Z Glans Wax

Glanz wax is some pretty nice stuff. Dont think Id apply it with a rotary though.

However, when I first tried the 1Z Glanz Wax, I discovered this is one you don't want to apply by machine, but rather with a foam applicator. In my opinion is too watery to use a machine. I'm not saying it can't be done, it just seems like you'll be wasting a lot of product. That was just my impression. I would think once the pad becomes saturated that you would need less product as it should go a long way after that, but not sure how much product you would have used to get to that point using a buffer

One thing for sure, the gloss and shine you get is impressive. I have XMT-360 topped with 1Z Glanz Wax and the results have been incredible...
