Meg's #7 showcar glaze topped with sealant..??

[Rival]

Hello,

just wanted to know how Blackfire wet diamond or Klasse sealant (silver bottle) will bond on top of meg's show car #7....???

i have a bottle of show #7 and want to begin to use it.

Typically i compound/polish out and use one of those two sealants and than sometimes a coat of wax on top....but would like to add in the show 7 into the mix.

plan would be to


wash&clay
comp/polish
show #7
sealant (one of the 2)
wax (have lots, depends on paint system + color)


anyone already doing this?

Meguiars #7 was designed specifically for single stage paints. With that said, its best suited for single stage paints. The product is very old. You can use it with clear coat paint systems, but there are far better glaze products available on the market. CG EZ Creme Glaze & WG 2.0 just to name a few. I would recommend them over Megs #7 on clears.

i know...just dont wana spend 60/70bux on a decent size bottle of wolfgang finishing glaze 3.0

I bought a the biggest jug of WG TSR 3.0 and want to use up other things before i start buying more stuff.


Cant tell you how many bottles i have with 50% or less in them. tons of random things. trying to figure out ways to use them.

From what I've heard wg finishing glaze is a fine polish not so much a glaze. I agree cm8. I'd like to add prima amigo and cg glossworks are a couple other good glazes. Wg2.0 is my personal favorite but it is not sold anymore.

Isn't clear coat just paint without pigment anyways?

Meguiar's #7 Show Car Glaze is a true glaze in the historical use of the word.

Wolfgang Finishing Glaze is a Fine Cut Polish. Two completely different products. Both are very good at what they do but very different products.


I explain ALL of this in my how-to books and also in this article...

I've never used #7, but from what Mike has discussed here, the oils in the product are part of what makes it so great on those old SS paints. I would think the oils that make #7 such a great product to freshen up old SS paint would make it very difficult to for any sealant to bond to the paint and do it's job for any length of time.

Klasse from my experience (and other sealants from what I've read) needs a clean surface. The rejuvinating oils in #7 would probably keep that from happining. The sealant might work for a while, but not as long as it should.

yea, the more ive looked into it i wont be topping sealant on top of #7. just wax.
