Streaky Spray Wax help!

[Mike Honcho]

Less product and use a separate high quality MF to buff off with little to no pressure. I always use 2 towels. One for application, one for final buff. Eagle Edgeless is all I use for paint.

I think that's my problem. Too much product. Thanks!

D156 you'll need to buff. I find too if I use a towel that's old, it doesn't wipe and absorb as well for a final buff.

Cool humid conditions can make drying/buffing off product more difficult. I can really tell in the winter. When I bring my cold car into a heated shop to wash the first panels take a couple of passes to dry but by the end when the paint has warmed up it's one and done.

What kind of towels are you using to wipe? If you have any of the Griots Garage PFM towels give those a try. Far and away the best drying towel I've come across.

I use spray waxes and detail sprays all the time.
Never get streaking.

When you say streaking, do you mean runs?
As in a single stream of product running in a straight line from a window seam, door seem, panel seam, etc...?
Product will stream out of cracks and crevices, you have to watch that.
Air tools and steamers are good for blowing out cracks, crevices, and seams.

I'm using the Gold Plush Jr. Towels. I'll get some of the PFMs in my next order I place.

Not runs. More like smearing.
