Black Hole is kind of 'dual use' depending on the application method - by hand with light pressure it's more like a traditional glaze and the cleaners in the product are largely ineffective (it's 100% non abrasive btw.) so it can be applied over layers of other products without removing them.

By machine it's cleaners, together with the action of the pad will perform some chemical correction to the surface.

As the car was already machine polished and finished to the highest level with Menz PO85RD Final Finish, I went with the hand method to get the best out of it as a pure glaze and to add a little depth and wetness prior to sealing in with the Zymol wax.
