Trouble using PERL

[Tom Weed]

Hi all,
I've tried PERL twice now on 2 different vehicles, one on the trim and cowl and again this weekend I tried on the mirrors, cowl, and trim of a truck I did, both times I've used it, it dried and left streaks, I had to go over it with something else. I diluted it 1:1 with water in a spray bottle. Can anyone help???

Darkens the trim better, easy to use, and quite durable in my experience. You can apply another coat after only 10 minutes(if needed).

Is this the same as the New Look Trim Gel on their site? I can't find G6.

It's G6 Hyper Coat. I just pasted CG G6 and I found it.

No, this stuff is better. Type G6 in the search bar on the site.

What's a little thread hijacking amongst friends? I have used PERL once on the GT-R I did. I used it under the hood. It did not streak for me there. I laid it on heavily. Did you buff it with a mf after? I have the least experience with perl of any of Avi's products. I will be using UTTG for exterior trim rather than PERL. I want something that lasts longer personally.

Hi Tom
did you wipe off after spraying?? you need to buff it with MF !
1:1 dilution on plastic trim is too strong, please follow our recommend!
the whole idea about the PERL is the flexibility to dilute it vs surfaces.

on wheels : neat or 1:1 with water , can use sponge applicator
exterior trims and engine room: 1:3
car interior : 1:5

make sure you clean the surface before application with APC and good rinsing
PERL is completely water base! no solvents or alcohol in it. the satin shine is due to that reason.

make sure you buff well after applying with clean MF.

let me know if you have more questions.

Thank you Avi, I will cut the strength down and give it another try. Yes, after I noticed it streaking, I did wipe it down, also I didn't strip down with anything other thank washing and drying it. It didnt' seem to have much of a gloss, is the normal appearance more of a flat look rather than glossy?
