Usage of Brilliant Spray Glaze

[swexlin]

Picked up some Brilliant Spray Glaze at the All Chyrsler Nationals last month. Still trying to figure out the best way to use it. Most of the time, in between waxing (I've been using Buttery Wax on the Superbee SRT8), I just use Detail Spray and/or Megs 34 Final Inspection.

I tried some of the Brilliant Spray Glaze today. I see you don't need much, but to tell the truth, while it does make the paint look very nice, I don't see much advantage over just using detail spray to make the paint "pop"? What am I doing wrong?

What color is your car? It makes my Black pop!

I have three vehicles:

My 2004 Ram 3500 is Bright White
My 2007 Dodge Charger SRT8 Superbee is Detonator Yellow
my 2003 Viper is Viper Black.

I have tried the Brilliant Spray Glaze so far only on the Charger, and while I agree, it "pops", no more so than if I used only Detail Spray alone. As I said, I'm just not sure when to use one or the other.

Try it on your Viper, I think you will see that it gives you the ''wet look''.Make sure you shake up well before and during use!
Do half of your hood with Detail Spray and the other with Brilliant Spray Glaze, I think you will see the difference!

I got some for free for doing something special... I have a Dark Grey 150 and I use it after I put on Machine Super Wax and it gives it that extra depth. Sometimes I will use it after I just wash it. I always use the foam microfiber to apply and then wait about 20-30 minutes to remove. Remember to spray the pad and not the car.

I have been spraying directly on the car - I'll try the pad. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it doesn't look good, I just can't see any difference between it and just using the detail spray.

FFK, I'll try your way and see what happens. Thanks.

The directions I believe say spray on the pad. If you spray on the vehicle it seems to dry right away and you use way more of the product. The pad allows it to spread evenly.

yeah spray it on the pad and apply like a wax you can rub it on in any direction though i let it haze up like kingsford says like 15 to 30 minutes a little longer if its really humid then wipe off with a microfiber towel and walla lol

Good advice. Thanks guys, this forum is helpful. I love the Buttery Wax, and I just want to use Brilliant Spray Glaze the right way.

What kind of pad? The blue micro fiber pads or hand flop with blue side.
