Best for short term pop?

No question: Wet Glaze 2.0!!!!!!! So easy to apply and remove.

I used to use Megs #7, but not so easy to apply/remove, and WG 2.0 is so easy and really pops over Blackfire Wet Diamond.

By the way, after an arson fire destroyed the facility that housed the #27 Liquid Ebony headquarters, 3M (who else) aquired the rights of, and for, #27 LE. They put it in their line-up as: 3M Perfect-It Foam Polishing Pad Glaze-Dark #05996 or 3M Machine Polish #06064....

Who makes Wet Glaze 2.0? Is that Meg, too?
 
I have done a few show cars and my love combo for them is:

PB Black Hole - for the glaze,
CG Jet Seal 109 - for the sealant
DoDo Juice Red Mist - for the QD

You will have a finish that is impeccable and a durability that will last for a long time!

I've never had the first problem with #7 being hard to use, in fact I would say the complete opposite. When applied thin over a freshly or recenly corrected suface and allowed to dry I find it to be extremely easy to use

In my experience #7 works great adding pop to any finish short term, and while I have topped 26 with 7 I have not tried mixing them, cool idea! :xyxthumbs:

Since the chemists/blenders that formulate car care products know a whole lot more of their products than I ever will; and, while I usually don't advocate the "Mixing/Blending of car care products based on my own intuitiveness"; Meg's #7 has unique characteristics (mostly oils that don't dry) that, to me, lends itself for mixing with the characteristics of Meg's #26, especially the Liquid Version, being as it's touted as a "blended" wax itself...some carnuba and polymers---poly(dimethylsiloxanes) included therein, and #26 dries clear--doesn't turn white--doesn't occlude the paint. IME, it's like saving a few extra steps going around and around the vehicle! :)

After all, this mix, or #7 alone if so desired, is intended for temporary bling. If one wishes, a good healthy wash session will usually remove it. :)

This sounds interesting and more inline with the type of advice I was expecting. And that makes two votes for the Poor Boy Black Hole...

I've used #7 before (not on this car), so I'm familiar with it, but can't believe it would be do better than what I'm currently using (which is a Malco carnauba paste wax). I think my dad has tried #7 on his show car with the same clear coat as I have and said it didn't do very good - he's an NXT man, but I don't like it, either. ;)

The oils in it can make it hard(er) to remove. The Wet Glaze 2.0 almost removes itself.

I used to be a huge fan of #26 until I tried Megs Gold Class Carnauba. It may be OTC, but the first time I used it as an LSP I was really impressed by the wetness and deep gloss it gives to a well prepped black car. It goes on easy with a black or blue pad and comes off very easy when dry. I haven't used #26 since.
 
I would say #7 on single stage paint and Black Hole on clear coat, follow with Eagle One Nano Spray which has a lot of fillers.
 
I used to restore corvettes. They were over restored according to NCRS standards. I had flawless paint on 60 black convertible and 54 red roadster. When I went to car shows and cruise-ins, nothing came close to dripping wet more than #7.
 
Alright, I almost feel obligated now to try the old #7. You guys sure have surprised me with that one. I think I even still have some, so don't have to spend any money. What fun is that? :)

Maybe I'll just do the roof and see what happens...but some Black Hole and Dodo Tropical Red Mist will probably be in my shopping cart during the next sale! ;)
 
how are you guys using #7? Are you using it in the "glazing step" and then sealing it? Or are you talking about putting it on top of a wax or sealant? IF so, then you are kind of using it like a QD.

Use 7 on top of a sealant, it will wash away with a good washing but it is excellent for a show car or any time you need some extra shine for a short time.
 
Would you then use it on top of a Carnueba wax? Does #7 give you more than a detailer (QD) would?
