I am in the process of detailing my car due to some light swirls and some bad water etching. I have done 1 pass with meguiars 105, I am doing the 205 tomorrow. My question is, is it ok to use yhe jeatseal over the glaze? Is there something i should be using between all steps to make sure everything bonds together? Thanks in advance for the help! You guys are always great:dblthumb2:
 
If you are doing a 2 step polish, why do you need a glaze? Sealants bond better on a bare surface. Jetseal's durabiltiy is not too good, you need to do everything you can to make it last as long as possible.
 
Megs 7 is a glaze best used with 'nuba waxes IMO and might have too many oils to allow any sealant to cure properly.
 
CG Jet Seal will go over it ! Let the Meg's Cure for 48 to 72 !!!!
 
My thought was to use the #7 to fill any micro scratches or swirls and then put the sealant over the #7. I am then going to do 2 coats of chemical guys Pete's 53 black pearl wax. I noticed that after i polished with 105 I have alot of white dust on the car. Should I spray this down with something and clean it off before I apply the 205?

You can use a 50/50 mix of Isopropyl Alcohol after 105 & 205. This will give Jet Seal better bonding. I would add glaze only if necessary and would apply it over Jet Seal & before Pete's 53. Just my $.02.
Also leave Jet Seal on paint overnight before removing residue.
 
So jetseal before glaze? I had thought that you would want the jetseal over the glaze to seal it in. But I'm not sure, thats why I ask you guys!

I only recommended this because your last step is a poly/nuba hybrid (see Kilnwheels post above).
 
Ahhhhh that makes sense. In your alcohol mixture should I make it stronger than 50/50 if the alcohol I have is 70%?
