Default 3M Imperial Hand Glaze

I rarely wash my Mustang b/c it rarely gets very dirty and does not see rain , snow etc. I use a "California Duster" a couple of times a week and generally wax it 2 times a year. Yesterday, the sun was beaming into the garage where you could really see every imperfection on the paint that normally are hidden. I noticed a kind of haze on the hood and horizontal panels like it was subject to some sort of overspray. Well, it appears to be just everyday contaminents and moisture build up from a very humid summer. On the hood I tried my Meguiars and Liquid Glass waxes but they did not remove the haze and roughness. I pulled out my 3M Imperial hand Glaze and tested one half of the hood to compare it to the other side. The glaze is awesome. It not only removed the haze, but made it extremely slick and the depth of color is great. Just remember, it is not a wax but an additional step prior to waxing and I highly recommend it. It is safe on bumpers and the like as well. Check it out.

Did you just use the Meguiars liquid glass, or did you do the 3 step system (including the Paint cleaner)?

I picked mine up at NAPA. Also try Carquest, and most auto-body shops.

No I didn't use the three steps. I have a hard enough time to find the time for the two steps. It was Liquid Glass and a Gold something Meguiars wax. The glaze is very impressive. You should give it a try.
