View Full Version : Swirl Marks that aren`t... you know, like streaking, but ... oh, hell. Read it. =(

I`m assuming my fellow OCD`ers know what I`m talking about here. After you`ve spent so much time - in my case, I just started a series of SG coats on Wednesday - doing your baby, you see what look like swirl marks on a panel. But when you try to wipe them away, they actually disappear, but only from that angle. And over. And over. And very, very annoying. Like oily streaking that just will *not* go away.



The car looks beautiful, but those streaky things are annoying. Anybody have some insightful and infinitely valuable words of wisdom?

haha, you`ve got it! That is the infamous Klasse SG haze. People say applying it the BillNorth way will rid you of the haze. Spray your car with a isopropyl alcohol solution and reapply SG the way it was intended to be applied. Or you can just switch to a different wax/sealant, which is what i did :D.

Al is right. According to Klasse direct you can add 2 or 3 ounces AIO to a 16 ounce spray bottle and fill with water. Shake, spray and wipe ( like using a QD). In the future use Sonus high gloss acrylic spritz as a QD before applying SG.

You want me to apply AIO like that? Being a cleaner, I would think that it would just wear away the SG.



Bill North way... I did see that mentioned, but I don`t think I read it. Cliffs Notes, anyone?

As a cleaner and base use AIO full strenght. To attempt to remove the haze try the AIO/water in the 16 ounce spray bottle. If you use alcohol to remove the Haze then you will have to start over.



There is a recommended mixture of sonus and sg to avoid the haze. I dont have the ratio handy so try doing a search.



good luck

Polaris- Hey there, hope school is going well. You home for TGiving or what?



*I* avoid the SG haze by letting it set up overnight before buffing it off. And you must`ve put it on a little thick. Your C5 would take a LOT less than an ounce, maybe not even 1/2 ounce (I use far less than an ounce to do a minivan). But gee, that how-to-apply advice does you a lot of good NOW, huh ;)



Maybe let your car sit for a while and go over it with a fresh MF and some Meg`s #34 (or some other non-carnauba QD like the Sonus). Or wash it. I haven`t tried the SG or AIO mixtures, myself.



As you can see, there are different ways of dealing with the SG haze.

I`ve actually been wanting to try Zaino, but I like the Klasse twins. ;x



College has been fine. `````y, annoying, and that sort of thing, but generally fine. Somewhat. I want to go back to kindergarten, really.
