I wet sanded with 1000, which really got rid of a lot of scratches, but when I applied my coat of Plastx it left my lights real streaky and not clear, it really pissed me off, just thought I'd vent and maybe someone can tell me how to fix this?

 

pics?

 

you have to wipe it down with a dry towel...if you keep rubbing with the cloth you used to apply it...it'll just keep streaking.

 

also, if it sits too long and you put a lot on it's hard to get it all off... spray a bit of quick detail on a micro fiber towel and wipe down... then wipe of excess you should be good to go.

 

ok im definately going to try that, now whats the best way to clear up the streaks considering I did this yesterday morning, so it's had the stuff on it for almost 24 hours, I HATE THESE STREAKS, some help fellaz? Myabe windex???

 

I hate this ****. Extremely hard to buff (by hand) once left on for a few minutes. In order to get it off. I just put regular wax on top of it, The wax took the PlastX off.

 

i'l give that a shot.

 

anything wet will work to get it off (that wasn't meant to sound as perverted as it did)... I use Eagle 1 quick detail - whatever quick detail spray you have... or windex...

 

Thankyou very much sir. I got windex in the trunk I'll try that tommorow morning, if not i'll be picking up some quick detail.

 

I used this. It works. Got it from KMart.

 

had to buy new headlights due to this sh*T!!!!! lost sleep over it...

 

how weird... I logged on the research a product called Crystal Guard - it's a paint protection... 2-3 years ago lots of people on this forum (and 350Z) raved about it... anyway it was a trip to find that the product you mentioned is Crystal View - I wonder if it's the same manufacturer (or similar product chemicals)?

 

what ****? Plastix or Crystal View?...

 

Plastix works for me

Appropriate amount with alot of buffing using micro-fibre cloth

 

I've never had a problem with the stuff either. I'm guessing the problem occured because the polish may have been used in temps below 60 degrees and/or the Plastic got caught up in the cuts of the 1000 grit swirels. What should have been done was a 1000 grit wetsand, then hit it with detail spray, then hit it with regular car polish. This has always worked for me. I use the Plastix in between.
