How to use for best results

• Prepare a clean surface and work in a shaded area to avoid direct sun exposure. Avoid applying on hot surfaces.
• Apply by hand with a soft microfiber cloth, using a thin, even layer. For best results, follow with a light wipe to reveal gloss and clarity.
• Pair with 3M Microfiber Detail Cloth PN 06016 to help lift residue and maintain a pristine surface.
• Post-polish surfaces benefit from the glaze’s gloss-enhancing properties, especially on refinish or factory paints.
