Restoring Paint with Meguire's #7 Show Glaze

I came across this post: How to Restore Single Stage Paint by Mike Phillips, where he explains his method for restoring old paint. I decided to give it a whirl and the results are magnificent! While my car will need a repaint in the near future, this has given some life back to my current paint.


My technique: I used Meguire's Quick Detail spray to clean, then Meguire's clay bar. I then applied a thick wet layer of Meguire's #7 Show Glaze, which I left overnight. In the morning I rubbed off the glaze, applied another layer, and finally used Eagle One Carnuba Wax to seal the deal.


Results below:

Before:

Tree details are cloudy

Details of the neighbors car are fuzzy

After:

You can see the tree is much more detailed

Much more detail from objects in the paint
