^Oh ok. I did mine with niteshades, but I sanded and did a type of clear over it. I've never run niteshades just flat by itself, so I was unaware it was a dirt magnet.

Your not supposed to let it dry. One wet rag to apply and then wipe it dry with another dry rag. Allowing cleaners to dry leaves a film behind which can cause adhesion problems and streaking.
