New Normal
The day started out very well for me. I have anxiously awaited my bottle of Danase Wet Glaze to do a test of this product in conjunction with a few of my favorite sealants. It was fun analyzing, evaluating, prepping, correcting, and applying products to my vehicle.
Danase Wet Glaze is a new product(to me) that claims to be a glaze that can be layered, work as moderate protection by itself, and work under most any sealant or wax without effecting the sealants durability.
I plan on testing the durability of the glaze by itself as well as three different sealants on the hood of my truck.
Here is the prep process:
S&W wipedown with MF towels
Menzerna PO 106ff with rotary and new 6.5 in.Erasure orange light cutting pad
Danase Wet Glaze applied with PC at speed 3 and 6.5 in. red Erasure finishing pad
All sealants were applied by hand with individualcotton applicators
As soon as I pulled the tape I found the contrast between the Glaze and NXT 2.0 very noticeable. I had read that NXT 2.0 would darken the paint. This shows that it was correct information.
My favorite look produce by LS was noticeable difference to Zaino as well. LS darkens and warms the paint compared to Zaino's optically clear reflective look. I happen to prefer LS but like the Zaino look as well.
Since my wife is the official unbiased tester of all of my testing I asked her to compare the different products based on her view and touch.
Zaino happened to be the winner in the slickness of each product. LS second, Danase Wet Glaze third, and NXT2.0.
She also picked Zaino as her favorite for looks. She said it was shinier. She did not make any comment about darkening of the paint. To be honest it is ever so slight and I was not abale to notice any darkening until the tape was pulled. It is subtle yet in the pictures I see it is distinct difference.
This morning I awoke to heavy dew and the differences seems to show through with the dew. Unfortunately, the camera does not show it as dramatic as it is in real life but there is a difference in my opinion.
I will continue to update on looks and durability. I would welcome any questions or comments.
