M26 Leaving an oily residue?

Re: M26 Leaving an oily residue?

Streaking is virtually unheard of with M26. Let's look at how you applied and removed that M07, which is a very oily product and can be a bit tricky to remove. You said you applied with a DA - how thin was it as you went to remove it, and did you notice anything out of the ordinary immediately following removal of M07?

I was hoping you would chime in here.

On my car there didn't seem to be anything wrong until I used the M26. The M7 was very thin and as always looked like I didn't even put anything on it. I removed it before it glazed over. I have been using M7 since the late 80's with GREAT results and never have had any issues.

P.S. All the products are fairly new have have been stored inside my house.

On my wifes car all I used was M205 with a White LC pads and It was fine until I applied the M26 and went to remove it.

So the only similarites are the M205 and M26. The Pads were brand new when used on the Caddy and cleaned before I used them on the wife's car. Could my M205 or M26 be bad?

I will be at the Good Guys show in Scottsdale, AZ and can bring the bottles with me for you guys to check it out.....

It could be bad, but that's easy to check for; it should pour out of the bottle with the consistency of a hand lotion, be slightly yellow in color, and smell like bananas. If it's water, lumpy, or smells really bad, then it's gone bad and should be replaced. Our trucks aren't really set up for replacing product if that is the case, so we would ask that you go through proper channels and contact our Customer Care Center at 800.347.5700 if need be.

Ordinarily M26 goes on very thin without having to work at it, it dries very quickly, and wipe off is a breeze. And the combination of M07 topped with M26 has been a favorite of many, many people on show cars for decades. Something ain't right here!
