More about our Glazes
Car glaze takes your vehicle’s shine to the next level, but that’s not the only benefit of using a high-quality auto glaze.
Our formulas also contain:
- Static-reducing agents help prevent dirt and dust from sticking to the paint, keeping the car cleaner for longer.
- Gloss enhancers that deliver a bright, wet shine with deep reflection
- UV blockers that protect the paint from sun damage and fading
When should you use a Glaze on your vehicle?
If you’re experiencing swirls, light scratches, or oxidation on your paintwork, glazing is a great way to "fill in" or conceal these light defects in your paintwork. If you’re looking to restore shine and even out the paint surface–but don’t have time or don’t want to go through a multi-step cutting and polishing process, a glaze is a good alternative.
Car glaze restores the luster and new look to weathered paintwork, but in a fraction of the time of more involved polishing and paint correction processes.
