Chemical Guys Polishes/Glazes

Well I need to order a gallon of a polish/glaze to follow up my CG laserbuff. I was wondering if anybody has experiences with their two glazes...

Crystal Glaze
http://www.chemicalguys.com/product_p/gap_102.htm

Revive Glaze
http://www.chemicalguys.com/product_p/gap_101.htm

Pro Polish
http://www.chemicalguys.com/car_polish_p/gap_105.htm

AIO Polish
http://www.chemicalguys.com/product_p/gap_106.htm

I will be ordering one of these four tonight probably and want to hear what you guys think. Glazes will contain fillers but will they give a wetter look than the pro or aio polishes...


Thanks in advance,
Andrew

I really like the Revive Glaze! A guy from CG that I talked to... Paul, maybe... greatly preferred Revive over Crystal. Crystal has virtually no corrective ability while Revive Glaze can do a little bit of work on oxidation. That being said, its corrective ability is pretty minimal as well.
Revive does darken the paint and give it a wetter look. Its not some miracle product, but I highly recommend it! I too ordered it in the gallon size.
The AIO was a let-down for me. I bought it as substitute for Klasse AIO. I used CG's AIO a couple times and I'm back to Klasse. It just doesnt produce the same results. I guess it could still have its place as a good prep layer on a well-maintained vehicle. However, its cleaning ability and shine are not up to Klasse's level, IMO.
I hope some other people will chime in as well. Hope that helps!

Thanks for your thoughts on the CG AIO...I'm leaning towards a glaze right now.

I recently placed an order with ChemicalGuys and received a sample of their Extreme Shine EZ~Creme Glaze and let me tell you this is the wettest 3 dimensional looking glaze I have ever used. I did my sons Mustang (black) and my wifes Accord (black) both kept clean but in need of a sprucing up. In the past I've used rmg and one or two megs glazes # 7 comes to mind, but the EZ creme glaze just seemed to do them one better. Wetness and depth came to the forefront. I topped sections with their butter wax and sections with souveran and to me the difference was negligible and I am a huge fan of souveran. I think that has to do with the quality of the EZ Creme Glaze. I also bought a gallon of their Natural Shine Pleasant Matte Shine Dressing (water based) for my interior. Here again is a product that met and surpassed my expectations. More of a lotion type dressing,easy to apply and remove. Cleans as it dresses much the same as PB's NL but for the price of a gallon of cg's you know it's my dressing of choice now seeing as how it cleans and dresses as well as anything I've tried. Can't say enough about their Leather Conditioner and Restore which is reserved for my 2001 Corvette. Simply put... GREAT STUFF! And finally I also bought a gallon of Maxi Suds II Car Wash, this product too was of high quality. Lots of long lasting suds,great lubricity (as good as a lot of other "brand names") you'll see mentioned on here.

How does CG revive compare to Megs #80?
