You usually dont put a glaze under a sealant.

In order to achieve optimum performance from a sealant, it needs to be applied to a clean surface that is free of oil, and waxes. Sealants bond to the paint to add durability. Glazes, are good, I love using glazes, but as it was mentioned, some of them have oils, and they really don't provide a good base for sealants, unless the glaze is a polymer base type glaze that would work good under sealant like Prima Amigo for example
Glazes are great under carnuaba wax. RMG, and Prima Amigo are by far my favorites. On black and red, it adds that "wow" factor. Next on my wish list is the CG EZ-Creme, and Danase

How bout the Menzerna Glaze? I have been contemplating trying out the Menzerna Final Polish, then Menzerna Finish Glaze, then Wolfgang DGPS, then Pinnacle Souv. I think this would be crazy combo!!!

I agree. I also have RMG and it's great but the creme glazes lasts considerably longer
for me and I think it looks 98.2% as good as RMG. Give it a try. Makes ur car look it was just painted 15 mins ago.
