yeah it will, but a lesson i learnt from experience and Mr Treen was that polishing is key.

I whacked every product under the sun on my RB. Glazes,sealants,waxes, diff waxes, highlighting waxes. But when i polished it properly it was mint. Now i only use polish,Jeffs and collinites and it's a pearl.

it can do but it doesnt stain them i.e easy to remove.
But 2 sprays in middle of panel will be fine and wipe around. Make sure you remove it with another cloth which has no Jeff on it. If left for too long it can take ages to remove

unlucky, but doesnt look too bad?


Its not as bad as it should have been with the distance the car was moved still boots a bit dodgy and think the bumper brackets are bent out of shape as the lines arnt right on the drivers side.

Whats the story with Glazes btw the after polishing before sealing or the other way round as i never used one.

If you use a decent polish and work it correctly and burnish the paint to a top notch finish a glaze will add little or nothing to the paint. After finishing down with something like Menzerna Final finish I would go straight to wax or sealant.

A glaze adds some oils and fillers down to the paint, most of the traditional ones such as Meguiars #7 are so oily a sealant won't bond to it, but it is luckily a pure glaze -cleaner & polish free ( which lot's are not) so you can use it as a step after sealant before wax.

They come in most use to spruce up the paint a day before a show and then just leave them un topped for looks or seal them in the best you can with a carnauba wax after.
