| | | You might find some streaking at the next heavy rain from the carnuaba ... next time just use a fine polish, tooth paste, or glass polish. |

| | | i didnt leave the carnauba, i finished with stoners IG to get the wax off, i really didnt expect these results. i had previously tried some glass polish, i think DP with the orange LC pad and it did absolutely nothing. i think it was this yellow pad that made the difference |

| | Try AIO, won't streak like a wax and even better cleaning ability then a cleaner wax. Plus it leaves the acrylic coating that beads like hell. Water just sheets right off when driving. Did mine back in April and still works great. I've also used DP Glass Restorer and it did nothing.

Anybody else have ideas on this? I'm thinking yellow pad with a mild polish or swirl remover and some Klasse all-in-one. I've had water spots for at least two years. |
