After 1 wash my paint feels so rough?

[fenderpicks]

So about maybe... a month ago, i tried my very best removing scratches and swirl all around my car and i seal it with WG DGPS and topped 2 layer of Fuzion.

Car is garage parked all this time.

And today i used 3 oz of CG glossworkz in foam cannon and 2 oz in bucket wash and now im touching my paint, i feel like the fuzion wax is gone... it doesn't feel smooth at all....

So im just curious wth happeened... unless glossworkz strips wax...?

[embolism]

most of the CG washes are very concentrated. I haven't used glossworkz but wouldn't be surprised if it stripped off your wax.

Not sure about the foam cannon but 2oz in a bucket wash seems high to me

Have you tried to clay the paint? The claying usually makes the paint feel much smoother.

but i thought glossworkz is not suppose to strip even if u use a hell lot...
And i clayed my car only a month ago...

Usually 1 oz. to 4-5 gallons is sufficient. Anything over this dilution ration is going to remove the LSP. I would think DGPS is also gone or at least broken down enough that you no longer have uniform coverage across the car.

do you park your vehicle outside? or do you work near construction or RR tracks or any place that your paint could accumulate a lot of contaminants?

Fuzion is one of those waxes that adds depth and gloss to the nth degree however durability isn't one of it's strong points. Please don't misunderstand me, Wolfgang is a gorgeous wax. It's goes on super smooth and buffs to a gorgeous wet shine.

You mention that the finish feels rough, are you saying that you feel little bumps as if it needs to be clayed or just not as slick or slippery as it used to?

3 ounces of any soap diluted in 12 ounces of water is highly concentrated and more than likely stripped the protectants you applied. Does the rinse water bead or sheet at all?

Go over each panel with a paint cleaner then reapply a sealant. I'm an advocate of multiple coats of sealant topped with a wax for additional depth...

With 3oz. in the foam cannon and then 2oz. in the wash bucket you likely removed the LSP. On Friday, I foamed my wife's car with 3oz. and it stripped the nuba wax, which I wanted to do. I find that foaming usually does strip quite a bit of the LSP, especially at 3oz. Therefore, now I only foam when I plan to clay and clean the paint before correction or LSP.

Usually a good two bucket wash is plenty to rid the car of dirt and will help preserve the LSP. I am sure you know this well, but every wash does remove a small amount of wax. That is why I use a spray wax after every wash to help boost the LSP.

As others have stated, you most likely stripped your wax. I use 1/2 oz. for about 3 gallons of water and it cleans very well and rinses easily.

Sounds like a clay barring is in your future for sure, once you do that, you'll be all set and you can go on ahead apply another coat of wax, good luck to you!

Wow.... i never knew if u use too much product it will strip the paint....
I thought only the CG citrus wash will strip LSP...
Well i guess lesson learned...

Sorry i shouldn't have used the word rough...
Is not slick/slippery....
