    WW streaking

    No, I'm not waterless washing nekkid. I'm using Ultima WW+, on a pretty clean, black car. The car was not hot to the touch, nor in direct sun light. I'd spray some on, wipe with a fluffy mf, but often it would leave streaks behind. I thought they might go away after some air-drying time, but they didn't. Is this normal or am I missing something? TIA.

    You have to go over it with a dryer portion of the towel, or a second towel.

    ^^^This, but a second dry towel usually works best

    I try to use the dry side of the towel I initially use, but I guess it's not dry enough. Looks like this might be a 20-towel job

    QD problems as well, in addition to a few more. Love the Uber.

    The dry side of the towel works for me but after a while its time to switch up I have a small car and I usually use about 4 towels to do a WW.

    100% agree. Waterless, Rinseless, Clay Lube, QD, additive to regular wash. AT LEAST 5 products in 1. Although I guess you could say the same with some of the other WW's including the Ultima. I've just found Uber to out perform two of the favorites on the forum (UWW and ONR). Lubricity seems superior and Uber definitely dries easier. Never experienced any streaking either.
