Meguiars Speed Glaze...

Clean Dean

Keep it clean !!!
I used this product today on a 01 VW Jetta...

Speed Glaze w/ Green Light cut pad w/ rotary + P21 topper...

I was amazed by the results !!!
 
The more that I work with the orbital the more that I love my rotarty buffer. You really get the best results IMO.

That's some impressive work!!!!

I'll have to get some and give it a try.
 
Looks great! Very deep and wet.

I've been wanting to pick up some Speed Glaze for a long time but since I recently purchased a bottle of 3M PI-III Machine Glaze it'll be a while before I need another medium abrasive glaze.

Question....how easy/hard is the Speed Glaze to buff off? The 3M PI-III Machine Glaze can be tough at times. Sometimes I have to use QD and a mf towel to get the residue off. Do you work the Speed Glaze until it's gone or just till it appears to start drying?

Schregel Light Cut Polish Pad...

This pad is definitely more aggressive than the white polishing pad and will take out minor scratches and swirls...

Meg's Speed Glaze buffs out very easily, and it is definitely one of the finest products I've come across if some time. I try to buff out the product until it is almost completely eliminated. I did not take before pics of this car, and I should have !!!! I detailed (9) cars in the past 3 days and I used this product on (5) of them... All outstanding results !!!

Beemerboy... I have used my rotary continuously for the past 3 weeks... I love the PC, but the results attained by a rotary with proper usage and product is second to none !!!! :D

can you help a brother out here please?

Koop....from what I've read and been told by a Meguiars rep is that it will remove defects, not fill. Mind you, this isn't first hand knowledge since I have yet to try it but just telling you what Megs rep told me. Maybe 2hotford could chime in as he has used it.

Superior Shine......I thought Speed Glaze contained a "paintable polymer", as Meguiars calls it. Speed Glaze is supposed to be a protective product designed to be safe for freshly painted vehicles. Plus, Clean Dean isn't using Speed Glaze as a final finish, he's topping with P21s.

I find speed glaze to be difficult to use in hot weather. For my needs #66 is best. It can be used as speed glaze even if you top it with something else.

Two products in one I guess. I don't do any bodyshop work anymore. I do use #66 on my monthly maintenance clients with a pc.
 
Hey!

Speed Glaze is a very unique product. It does contain a paintable polymer which makes it safe for new paint while providing enough protection until the paint can cure.

It also has a high content of Meguiar's Polishing oils so that it gives a deep dark shine like other Meguiar's products such as #3, #7, or #81.

Finally, it also a cleaner, with Diminishing Abrasives. So as the cleaner breaks down, it polishes the surface. This is a huge advantage.

These characteristics make it unique in the Meguiar's line up.

Compared to #66, a one step cleaner/wax "specially formulated for high-production reconditioning", I find Speed Glaze quite superior in terms of shine and gloss. Moreover, the Speed Glaze can be used on uncured paint whereas #66 can not.

As it is a polymer product, you must let it dry on the surface before removal in order to allow the polymer to bond properly. You should allow at least 15-20 minutes before removing.

Cheers!

I agree with you guys about the merits of a rotary over a PC. I use my PC mostly to apply and remove wax. With MF bonnet of course.

That's GREAT WORK Dean.
 
I always use either Meguiar's Yellow Polishing pad (if there are moderate swirls) or Meguiar's Beige Finishing pad if there are minor swirls when using Meg's Speed Glaze.

I always use the Rotary when using Speed Glaze, though it can be used with a DA, orbital or even by hand. However, the best results will be obtained IMHO with the rotary.

Take care,
Tim
