Greetings everyone!! It`s been a while since I`ve been here. I`m miss it!
Here`s my story. So after... months... of neglect and abuse.. Mr. Lemon (lemon year, silver focus) was given the Klasse treatment with claying and PPCL. After applying the first layer of SG, I decided to wait for a week before applying the second coat.
So, I drove Mr. Lemon to work and lo and behold, when I stepped out of the car, the thing was like a deep pool of water. My co-worker called it "liquid look". This was with the cloudy weather. It was amazing. The following day, it was sunny outside and my co-workers again said the car was "shimmering". I agreed on both accounts.
Now weekend came and I decided to wash with Eiman Fabrik powerwash and apply the second layer of SG.
To my disappointment, the shimmering and liquid look disappeared.
Do you guys think somewhere along the line I stripped off the first layer? I don`t know what happened. I usually just wait 24 hours and apply up to 3 coats of SG. Or is this the classic example of the darkening of the color after several layers of SG. I`m going to try to QD (using the Sonus acrylic spritz) and see if I just failed to remove the SG properly.
Whatever the case, I`m disappointed. Should have bought Zaino
