Black Challenger - streaking after drying
So I am up on my boat for the week and am limited in tools to wash my new scat pack. At home I have the CR Spotless system and air so no drying issues. But for now I'm having Hella time getting car to dry streak free. What I'm doing is buying a gallon of distilled water and mixing half Oz of ONR. I will goto quarter wash and spray off car 1st (plus I'm in the shade in bay) even though car is not really dirty. With the spot free rinse and my wax the water rolls off.now I do the entire car with the usual MF soaked in ONR. I do the entire car then I ring out some new rags soaked in ONR to almost dry to dry the car. I have tried that alone, with a ONR detail spray and that MF, Ammo hydrate and damp MF and followed with dry MF slowly for the final wipe. It will look good until I back out of bay and get in sun and it's all streaked out, no matter what method I use. Only way I got it streak free is UQD on a dry MF, then buff with dry side. I was thinking maybe the wax on car is causing issue, which is #26?

Re: Black Challenger - streaking after drying
I've never experienced a problem like this when using the ONR. The one thing that "could" cause this is the fact that ONR leaves some sort of a paint protection/light wax finish behind. (This why I don't use ONR if I don't have to.)
This may not like whatever you currently have on the finish.
What you could do (this seems to help quite a bit) is mix the ONR in spray bottle. Spritz each panel at a time and then wipe it down. If the car isn't more than tad more past dusty then you'll be alright. I've never experienced any scratches or anything and I have used this process on my wife's black Cadillac as well as my SRT Challenger (2011 Toxic Orange).
This way you're limiting the amount of product you're applying.
Also, I don't use distilled water when using the ONR and have never had any poor results in doing so.

You are using a whole bunch of different products

Ammo hydrate should be just sprayed on a towel and then just come behind it with ammo spit and the car will look great. As far as the no rinse was, try meguiars express wash. It is body shop safe so you have just a wash

+1 on Meg's D114 & D115. Both are amazing products.

I end up with tiny white rings with my cr spotless. Nothing crazy but i see them. The car is silver so they only show on the windows.

I use Ammo Hydrate as well, and find if the car isn't wet enough the Hydrate will not dissipate into the pores of the paint and have to follow with dry towel for final wipe. I too also use Hydrate along side ONR or UWW+.

Question. .. does the D114 strip the wax that is on the car?
