Speed glaze is my favorite meguiars product. #80 is a part of almost every detail that I do. I like to use it via PC and rotary depending on the condition of the paint.
With the PC I apply it with a yellow polishing pad at 5.5. I work it until it alomst disappears, then move to the next section. After I have applied to the entire vehicle, I remove with MF.
With the rotary it cuts or braks down much quicker. It is thin so sling can be a problem(for me anyway). I use the same polishing pad with the rotary and apply it in the same manner.
I find that speed glaze effectively removes light to medium swirls and blemishes while leaving behind a finish that is ready for your favorite LSP.
If you are really feeling frisky, try #80/#81/NXT :eek:
Here is a quote from Mike Phillips from another forum on speed glaze. I hope this helps.

"Speed Glaze is unique in that it contains a synthetic, "Paintable Polymer".
This offers painters and body shop owners a way to provide their customers with a level of "paint protection" throughout the paint manufactures recommended cure period, (like that offered by a synthetic wax), without the fear of contaminating the shop or interfering with the cure process.
It has a high content of Meguiar's trade secret polishing/conditioning oils and thus makes dark colors look very dark, much like some of Meguiar’s pure polishes. Example: #7 Show Car Glaze, #3 Machine Glaze, Deep Crystal Polish and #81 Hand Polish.
At the same time, it is a "Cleaner/Polish", because it also contains Meguiar's Diminishing Abrasive Technology, which enables it to remove fine defects while leveling the surface.
It is not as aggressive as #83 Dual-Action Cleaner Polish but is more aggressive than #9 Swirl Remover as well as #82 Swirl Free Polish.
Because of the above three characteristics it is unique among the Mirror Glaze line of products.
It’s a product that you must try for yourself in order to find out if it works for your particular situation.
It can be used by hand, rotary buffer and dual-action polisher.
I hope this helps…

My local PBE claims that Speed Glaze is the most popular Meguiars product that they sell.
I don't think anyone else makes a product like this than can provide the protection of a polymer during the paint curing process.
