If you are looking for a glaze look no further.

I just wanted to give a quick review of the best glaze product I've ever used. I will not name the other companies names that this product out performs, but rest assured this glaze is daylight and dark difference to its closest competitor that I've used.

Chemical Guys BlackLight!!


Overall 10/10
Just the best glaze I've ever used period. Not much else can be said about this product.

Shine 10/10?
I put a question mark because truthfully this product is never alone on my paint. I have never driven around with just this. It has had a wax and sealant on top of it so I will just assume by how my car looks directly after applying that the shine is magnificent.

Scratch/swirl fill 11/10!
This is where this product truly sets itself apart from all others. Here are some pictures to show you how well it does. The pictures added on this thread are before applying and after on the same spot on my paint.

Longevity 9/10
It lasts just about the average length of time you would expect a glaze to last although in the sport of being fair, I have used other products that have lasted longer but do not even come close to how well this product performs.

The picture above was before the product was applied, and the picture below is the product just having been applied. Another note this product will last MUCH longer with a high quality sealant and wax applied over it.

Trust me, you're the only one noticing the swirls in your paint. She probably thinks it is a Mustang anyway.

I actually bought this off of your recommendation, so I guess I owe you one.

Thanks! I tried my damnedest to make sure my phone was on the correct zoom for both pictures, and I think they are nearly as perfect as I could ever get them. And the pic of my car was just for my own personal satisfaction lol

This stuff is advertised as being a glaze/sealant. Is it ok to layer with other sealants, say 1st coat CG Bkacklight then 2nd Blackfire Wet Diamond?

Looks good. Got a 17% off coupon from them today, so I'm gonna order some now.

How did you apply it? Hand or orbital? Foam or microfiber?

How long do you find this lasts? In your original post you talked in subjective terms.
