 I haven't used 3M Hand Glaze, but from what I understand about all you did 
 was remove some of the wax you'd already applied.  I think the remedy would 
 be to simply reapply the wax. >>

* this got kicked around a few weeks back when I suggested that I had used 
the glaze after the wax.   After some reasearch and a few dozen emails, I see 
that the "intent" is to use the glaze before the wax.....but I still have all 
the concours OTM buddies saying 'bs" in my other ear.    All I've been able 
to get from 3M or Meguiars is that waxing after the glaze is recommended to 
protect the glaze which would otherwise not last as long.   Maybe that's why 
my concours buddies say don't wax it...and just leave the glaze as the wax 
reduces the wet look the glaze provides... I think so.    YMMV, do as you 
will and all that stuff.   But my OTM is going to a concours this weekend and 
glaze will be the last thing going on  :)
