    Re: wax streaking

    Temperature, humidity, too thick of an application, not enough drying time, incorrect microfiber for removal ... all are reasons for wax streaking.

    What wax do you most often use?

          Usually too thick of an application, or not enough drying time.

          But the prep work can help also. The Meguiars cleaner/wax is meant to work without much prep. The Nxt and Gold Class work best with some sort of cleaning/polishing, etc beforehand.

            Those are definitely the top 5 reasons for streaking, and if you start to combine one or two of them the situation just gets worse.

The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.
