Help with Glazes and body filler

I see there are a number of glazes to use on a car. 3M has there two and Meguirs has one as well. Which one is best for a newly painted car?

3M has perfect it durable glaze- made with siliconethat can be used by hand or buffer.
3M also has one for application by hand only made without silicone or wax.
Meguis I am having a hard time finding out about. 3M makes this in an Imperial series as well as a perfect it 3000 series.

Also, which body filler is best to use? Evercoat Z-grip or Bondo, and what kind?

Re: Help with Glazes and body filler

i use perfect it by 3m good stuff, presta is also a great product. you do need the systems if you can, i use a compound and then a swirl remover then a hand glaze final inspection polish, just be sure anything you use says polish and not wax and your good to go. no wax for 6 months. polish within the windows that are spelled out in the tech sheet for the clear your using. my hok is 12 hours.

evercoat....... great stuff
