I detailed my wife's Explorer yesterday and since it's a light beige color, I didn't go through the whole process, I just used DC2 polish and Collinite 845 Insulator Wax.
It was very hot yesterday and I had to do the truck in the sun, but the DC2 stilll spread like normal (speed 5), and I rubbed it down to a barely visible film. I applied it to the whole truck before going to remove it and I discovered that the polish had actually dried on me, just like a wax would...it even passed the swipe test.
I was worried at first that I was going to have a difficult time removing the residue, but it buffed off like a dream, leaving the surface very smooth and glossy. It felt like and looked like I had done the entire process on the truck.
After removing the DC2, applying the Collinite was also like a dream, I was able to get a super thin layer which buffed off increadibly easy with no smearing or streaking.
I've never had DC2 act like this before and I loved it. Has anyone else had this happen to them or maybe have any ideas why it dried on me like it did?
