    Help- Reload Streaks

    Second time using reload and....

    I definietly used too much last night. (i used it as a drying aid after Wolfs Mean Green rinseless)
    noticed some streaks when i got out of the car this morning at work, a few of them buffed out easily but I ran out of time before I had to go in

    theres not many streaks and they are hard to see but I`m sure there are probably more if I saw a couple initially without a detailed inspection

    so its been baking in the sun all day (on my metallic black paint-ouch)

    under the reload is PBL (v1)- two coats (applied about a month ago)

    I`m going to try to wipe it down with ONR QD and see if that fixes it but if not....

    Can I use Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing Lotion (i have it)

    or should I use Black Label surface cleansing polish ( i have it)

    or just make an IPA solution? (and what % if so)

    I dont want to damage the PBL if I can avoid it

    Good luck


    You may just want to let it wear off naturally

    yea i kind of agree. i figure i definitely dont want to have to rub the paint vigorously or anything with a towel. no matter how soft it is.

    Now i`m afraid to even use reload on black paint. I obviously have an over-application problem

    Re: Help- Reload Streaks

    Why not just apply a qd over it an use it to rub/smooth it out. Try something like fk425.

    Re: Help- Reload Streaks

    Use reload again. Just mist a little over the area. The solvents will do a lot and remove streaking.
    You can do it, because it already baked in de sun and is dry. Don`t try this when it`s streakin when just applied as you`d only be applying more.

    Re: Help- Reload Streaks

    yea i had read about reload issues but of course thought that would not happen to me.. yea right..reload dont care!

    i have nothing against the procuts, for the record.....im simply trying to see if anyone has a solution for this problem

    i got some of them off with ONR QD over lunch but they`ve been baking all day so I am concerned now...if i would have known it was streaked i would have not driven it to work today

    Didn`t work for me, as well as reset 4x the recommended amount, nor straight apc

    Don`t remember if I tried the additional reload, but think I did
