I have never heard of a clutch glazing over due to normal use. I totally understand if the clutch was glazed due to slipping or high rpm damage.

Is it possible that the portion of "glazed" clutch material will wear away with time and the. The remainder of the clutch will operate normally ?

Similar to burning off glazing on break pads
If the pads are glazed, you can't "burn" it off. You have to take them out and sand them. A glazed disk means replacement. Any chance the rear main seal is leaking oil onto the clutch?

Just curious, do you ever hold the car in place with the clutch?
