    Maybe waited a little too long to buff, but I'd consider it normal.

    Waited abut 10-15 minutes before buffing but garage may have been too cold to apply it. About 45-50 degrees.

    The direction say wait up to 20 mins. If the temperature is 59 degrees. I just tried to follow directions. But I guess you're right. Too long of a wait.

    LOL, wasn't too bad. I recently tried to remove some Blackfire coating. Man, my arms must've gotten a half inch bigger. LOL

    No, just regular CQuartz. I had a couple of sample bottles I wanted to use. I know I should have used UK.

    Re: Silly CQuarts question???

    If all wiped off finely its ok, in fact very good even, it means you the have let the most of the coat bond to the surface and only wiped the very fine top layer left
    cquartz now is reacting faster , so i would say maximum between 5~10 min (depend on temp) is enough.
