Meguiars Mirror Glaze 7 & Collinite

Sharpie said:

A friend gave me what was left of his Meguiars Mirror Glaze 7. After doing some reading it appears that it has no protecting ability and its use is help with short term shine. I plan on putting on Collinite 845 this week and was wondering if I should use the mirror glaze before or after the Collininte, or not use it all and stick only with the Collinite

Let's set aside the Meguiar's #7 for just a moment.

What is the current "condition" of your vehicle's paint...
Are you going to do any polishing with an abrasive product
before you apply the Collinite #845?

The reason I ask is (back to good ol' #7) that Meguiar's #7
is a "pure polish"---having no abrasives---but plenty of Meguiar's trade secret (T.S.) oils. And from my experience with it for many decades now: Adds plenty of gloss!

With that being said:
-Do you want to try #7, after polishing-out any paint defects (if any), to add some gloss---perceived or not?
Go ahead, I say!

-Now as far as using #7, and then adding the necessary LSP on top of it:
I've used about every Wax I've ever owned, could borrow or steal...including Collinite #845...without incurring any snafus.

Have FUN!

If available, you may want to use a "swirl finder" light
after claying.

I always polish after claying---even if only an fine-grade Polish is deemed necessary. M205; Meguiar's UP;
3M Imperial; etc.
