    You're go to glaze?

    So, just curious, in everyones opinion, whats your favorite glaze to use?

    I have a friends car I am working on, and he only has minor minor tiny scratches everywhere, no where needing a full polish, we both agree a glaze will be ideal, but we don't know which one...

    CG Blacklight comes to mind, any others good out there?

    Re: You're go to glaze?

    I've used XMT Carnauba Finishing Glaze on a black Solstice and the results were pretty amazing. The paint was in very good condition (I think it had less than 15k on it at the time) and just needed light polishing to remove some stage-1 water spots. I polished with XMT Fine Swirl Remover #2 and then finished with the XMT glaze. The results were pretty amazing: Mile-Deep gloss that left the owner almost speechless. He had his wife come out to look at the hood halfway through the job so she could see the side-by-side and she was also quite impressed.

    Re: You're go to glaze?

    Black Light is a good choice, and if you already have it I would stop there. Take a look at the results achieved in this thread:

    Product Review: Chemical Guys Blacklight/V07 Combo

    The guy also explains the process he used which is helpful.

    Other than Black Light, I would seriously consider either Prima Amigo or PB's Black Hole/White Diamond (if the car's color is on the light side).

    Good luck!

    just make sure to clean the paint by removing any old coats of wax by first clay bar then paint cleaner then go ahead with the CG blacklight

    I'm not a big user of glazes so my experience is somewhat limited.

    Richard, rwright, started a thread showing the affects of Chemical Guys Blacklight and his results are very impressive...

    Product Review: Chemical Guys Blacklight/V07 Combo

    I have used PoorBoy's World Black Hole and White Diamond. I was very impressed with there ease of use and results...

    Poorboys Black Hole Show Glaze can be applied any time to hide minor imperfections and to enhance gloss on black, red, and all dark vehicles.

    Wet Glaze 2.0. Can be applied before and/or after LSP. I apply Collinite 845 over it to lock it in.

    Re: You're go to glaze?

    Ha, I just realized in my thread title I used "you're" instead of "your" chalk that up to writing a post around midnight after a long day! hahahaha

    I do have some Blacklight on hand(very tiny amount that was given to me), and their store is only about 20 min away from me if I need more. The results in that thread are pretty stunning. I could use Blacklight/V7 combo, then add a coat or two of UPGP keep it looking good for a few months for him.....

    I have only used EZ Creme Glaze. It has worked very good and I do expect the other CG glazes to work even better.

    Poor Bous black hole glaze is my favorite glaze for dark colors. Works great even on reds and grays.
