Does megs #7 contain fillers?

Yes of course people on the show car circuit use glazes right before a show because it is simple and easy. Most of the cars are constantly wiped done incorrectly and have very minor surface scratches on them so wiping down with a glaze is an easy fix. Once again if you are seeing a difference with using glaze you didn't polish the paint correctly.

I have done 100's of show cars from wet sanding to the final polish and these guys just want something that is easy to use because like I said above they are constantly wiped down incorrectly. Also you have to understand there is a point of no return. Now when the paint is polished correctly nothing is going to enhance it period. You can only do so much before the reverse effect will occur. I also have done this just to prove glazes will not help. The handful of cars that I did apply glazes to actually looked a little hazy, that right there tells you the paint has been worked to the point it no longer has nothing else to offer and has been correctly polished.

Just to add about your comment about wax. An lsp is just applied to protect all your hard work not to add anything.

What about a good tire shine? Can't you use that to add the extra slickness and wetness? I thought glazes were for donuts? Thay have no business being applied to a vehicle. Furthermore, it would be impossible to wipe that crap off that flawless paint that all the hard work has been put into..

I guess we are going to have to agree to disagree on this one. You bring up some good points though. It's always good to get another point of view on things. As far as the wax, I feel that many waxes do more than protect. Although protection is their main objective and purpose, we mustn't ignore that many waxes do indeed have properties which help improve the appearance of paint. NXT is a great example of that.:dblthumb2:

I think you're missing something from that thread. Did you read the complete thread, or am I misunderstanding your reference/ post?

Honestly no, I did not read the whole thing.

In trying to bring the thread back around from proper care of single stage paints.... In your folks opinion: What would be the best filling glaze?

Meg's M07 is awesome on SS paints, I don't think many others come close when working on these types of coatings. The best filling glaze I've used is Prima Amigo. I haven't used it on SS paint, but on CC it works great at filling in swirls when that is what you are trying to accomplish.
