Glaze on top of AJ or UPP??

Was doing some reading about glazes today and I was thinking, if they wet the surface why not put a glaze on top of a poly (take your pick) it could be applied whenever just like a wax. And if you wanted to lock it in you could just wax over it??!? Thoughts?
 
Ok Im confused then. A glaze has no cleaning ability as I know it, like Megs #7.



And I was told that a poly will not bond on top of a glaze due to the oils and wetting agents. That you had to put a wax over a glaze.



Am I all screwy????
 
I share his confusion even after reading that linked thread. Everything I too, have read on these forums, seems to go directly against that advice. In countless threads, members have said that a sealant MUST go immediately on top of a freshly prepped surface with nothing separating the two. Otherwise, the sealant simply won't "seal" all too well.
 
Many will say that you can apply a sealant over a glaze without a problem, but my experience has been that it will significantly diminish the durability of the sealant, even if it's a sealant/wax combo. It doesn't seem to do that with a pure wax though.

Same, all I have read is that a glaze has to be topped with a wax only.



If a glaze has no cleaning properties there is no reason why you should not be able to put it on top of a poly. Then just seal it in with wax.

You could consider topping the glaze with a good carnauba and sealing it with FX-100. :xyxthumbs

Hmmm...more food for thought.



My plan has been; clay, shampoo, cleaner/prep, sealant, glaze, carnauba, QD. But since carnauba doesn't quite act as a sealant, if a glaze is going to remove some or all of the LSP, then I have a problem. But the very reason I'm planning on topping LSP and glaze with carnauba was for its depth. If I do the opposite, won't that make carnauba useless?

The FX-100 is essentially sealing the glaze and the carnauba. It can be topped with carnauba for enhanced wetness and depth.
