Wax, Glue-like on the surface, very difficult to remove

[d319]

What is wrong? There are always some glue-like spots on the surface and it is very, very hard to remove them. I am using this called, mirror glaze, 7, professional which might be 6, 7, years old in my garage. The setting to put it on is about 3.5 with 9006. I use 7006 with microfiber bonnet to remove it. Is it the problem I use too much wax? wax is too old? Or not enough time to work the wax into the surface? I even try to use new bonnets, let's say every 7, 8 square ft, it help at the beginning but it is still very difficult to remove them. I need to use the microfiber tower to remove them by hand. Another question is when I took the G-100 this time, there is some oil leaking out and You can see it at the side. The last time I use it was probably half year ago when I purchased it. Please help.

Re: Wax, Glue-like on the surface, very difficult to remove

First off, #7 is not a wax, it's a pure polish and as such it should NOT be allowed to fully dry like a wax or you'll end up with the problem you have now, regardless of how you applied it or how much you used (although the heavier you apply it the harder it will be to remove if allowed to set up).

I think your best bet may be to use the "like removes like" method and apply more #7 by hand using a small foam applicator pad. Work it into a 2' x 2' section for a short time and then wipe it off with a clean microfiber towel. By short time, I mean maybe 30 seconds or so. In my limited experience with #7 I found that applying it with a foam applicator and working it until the pad begins to "drag" on the surface then immediately removing with a MF towel was the easiest way to use it. I covered my entire PT Cruiser, by hand, and hardly broke a sweat - you don't need to work #7 real hard since you aren't correcting any defects with it, and if you apply it nice and thin and remove it in time, then even that step isn't terribly difficult.
