    Re: Hard time removing Uber

    I've used it a couple times with a white pad and never had any trouble wiping off.

    Re: Hard time removing Uber

    How did you use it?

    I have found that to keep Uber AIO Easy to wipe off the I had to do the following :
    No more than 5 Section passes
    Speed 4 on my Flex, or 5 on my Meguiars G110v2

    If I push the AIO any longer, or use a higher speed than it becomes difficult to remove as you mentioned.

    Re: Hard time removing Uber

    Instructions said use on medium. I used the Flex on 4.
    Wiping it off right away seemed too soon. It was greasy and smeary. Leaving it on for 30 min was a nightmare.

    Question Re: Hard time removing Uber

    Monica, maybe due to the time of the year it was a little too cool outside, where you in the garage? Was the heater on?

    Re: Hard time removing Uber

    never used the product but from general polishing experience, and from reading through the thread it sounds like too much product is a good candidate for the problem you had. I'd assume the car is done and gone now but perhaps you could try using very little (less is more) next time and post your findings back here. Hope all is well with you and Dave and the Greyhounds..

    Yeah, I was in the garage, it was 65 and low humidity.

    Thx Dave, I'm thinking the only thing left is that I used way to much. This wouldn't surprise me as I tend to do that.

    I have another client this weekend, so before I give up and go back to Menzerna, then Wolfgang as 2 different steps, I may try a small section first and see how it comes iff using less.

    And the hounds and us are good! Hope you and Dirty Boy are well too

    How does it stack up to HD Speed? HD Speed (AIO) goes on easily, comes off easily and is sun safe.

    30 minutes is definitely too long, after I finish the panel I wait about 30 seconds and then take it off. Anything longer than a couple of minutes is going to be very tough to remove as you stated.
