  • Interesting, DC2 polish hazed (dried) on me...POSITIVE RESULTS

    I detailed my wife's Explorer yesterday and since it's a light beige color, I didn't go through the whole process, I just used DC2 polish and Collinite 845 Insulator Wax.

    It was very hot yesterday and I had to do the truck in the sun, but the DC2 stilll spread like normal (speed 5), and I rubbed it down to a barely visible film. I applied it to the whole truck before going to remove it and I discovered that the polish had actually dried on me, just like a wax would...it even passed the swipe test. I was worried at first that I was going to have a difficult time removing the residue, but it buffed off like a dream, leaving the surface very smooth and glossy. It felt like and looked like I had done the entire process on the truck.

    After removing the DC2, applying the Collinite was also like a dream, I was able to get a super thin layer which buffed off increadibly easy with no smearing or streaking.

    I've never had DC2 act like this before and I loved it . Has anyone else had this happen to them or maybe have any ideas why it dried on me like it did?

    Well, it is a general consumer friendly product... so kind of designed not to be a disaster if dried. Same with DC1.

      You worked on hot paint surface (direct sunlight) so DC2 dried much faster than normal.

      Speed 5 is generally for defect removal. Speed 2-3 works better with pure polish application.
