    Question Hand Glaze with a PC

    Guys,

    Can I "get away" with using 3M Imperial Hand Glaze with a PC at a slow enough speed to simulate hand application?

    It would be a shame to leave a nearly full bottle on the shelf when I get the PC.

    If I can use it, once its gone, should I just replace it with the Machine Glaze for the same results? (I know the answer is obvious, but ya never know)

    A PC applies similar to hand application. When you see "Machine application" that is for high speed machines. They contain things that keep the heat down. So no need to worry when you`re dealing with the PC.

    i wonder why they call it hand gaze? hmmm.i would stick with hand application as the product was designed for it. you could always apply car wash, glass cleaner etc. with the p.c. also but no one does. if it works for you though, go with it! i can`t say i have never taken a different route or tried alternative methods.

    Biff,

    I`m assuming by "Machine glaze", you are refering to 3M`s Finesse IT II Machine polish. If so, it is quite a bit different than the Hand glaze. The hand glaze is basicialy for adding gloss (non-abrasive), while the Finesse IT II is more aggressive and is used for removing scatches, swirls, stains etc. That`s not to say that you couldn`t use the Finesse IT, and then follow with your top coat, but most people would follow the Finesse IT with the Hand glaze for more gloss before the top coat.

    Boss, this is the glaze I was refering to:
    "3M Imperial Machine Glaze: Non-silicone, non-wax machine glaze. Possesses excellant scratch removal characteristics. Results in superior depth of shine and luster."

    I thought it was the same as Hand Glaze but requires more heat (speed) to break it down(?)
