    As I am becomign more and more into glazes, I have acquired some samples and have no clue what does what! So if you can, tell me what each one's attributes are please. Cleaners? Fillers? shine? etc?

    another term that is used very loosely. You must study the directions of each product as glazes can be:
    1. Fillers Only --- meant to amp up the finish prior to protection commonly from a 'nuba

    2. Carnuaba Wax --- sometimes the term actually refers to a product meant to protect the finish.

    3. Polish / Fillers ---- have also seen some glazes that are actually light paint polishes with fillers to be used prior to protection.

    to my knowledge, yes. No cleaners, no abrasive quality, and no protection.

    I've used Megs #7 before and it offers no protection and the shine disapears after a few hours, like in the discription it's good for shows.

    You should apply a LSP to any glaze to prolong its apperance.
