Glaze under Zaino?

Well, it'll be a few weeks before I zaino my black Miata. I'm going to practice my technique on my wife's silver car. But since the black shows micro scratches so well, can I, like, Meguiars #7 it and then Zaino it?



Or would you suggest some S100 SEC(P?)?
 
do the ppcl from p21s or w/e the s100 equivelent is. Im pretty sure you could use #9 swirl remover from meguiars. I just know from trial and error and info on here that polymers do not bond well to glazes. I made the mistake of doing blackfire over mothers sealer and glaze. btw, silver is such a bia to detail, but it stays clean the most and doesn't show imperfections like black.
 
I believe Bruce Peter is trialing the application of a glaze under Zaino now, but the accepted wisdom is that it's not a good idea. Even using GEPC/SEC people say you should wash it first.



In any case, you would be better off trying to properly repair the swirls/scratches with an abrasive swirl remover/scratch remover/cleanser, etc. - depending on how bad it is. A glaze is meant to hide it temporarily and another wildcard in the equation is that no one really knows what will happen when you try to stick the short-lived glaze underneath the long-lived Zaino (or polymer sealant).
 
Thanks, guys. Unfortunately, since I'm PCless currently, I've pretty much done about 80% of what I can do by hand. I think most people would think that I'm nitpicking, which sure, I am, but I don't want to start my year+ of Zaino layering with surface imperfections.



Again, thanks for the info. The search didn't seem to work (literally, I got an error message). I've been stalling on getting a PC for a while now. When the dollar amount hits that three digits in once purchase, that's when I start balking at stuff.
