All right, everytime I wax, some kind of streak happens. Like today, I spent 1 1/2 hours waxing taking my time to be careful. Streaks on hood still ...

Here's what I currently do, please let me know if I"m doing something wrong:

I use Turtle Wax's Synthetic ICE

First wash
Dry until spotless
I take it into my garage so I have more control over evaporation rate
Apply liberal first coat of ICE to whole car
Go over with a microfiber on whole car soaking up excess
Buff with a different microfiber

But stilL!!!!!

I think streaking is caused by use of too much wax. I used Ice before and thought the results were pretty good for OTC. spray a little bit more sparingly and also spread nicely, then allow to dry for about 10 minutes.

Do they say to apply "liberally" ?

Sealants should be applied thin as possible .. if your going back over the car "soaking" up the excess your using wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much.

Go wipe the hood down with a 50/50 mix of IPA & water .. then reapply putting it on very thin.

See how that goes.

This may be your problem.....Also, when all is said and done, move the car out into the sun. Any excessive oils will thin and resurface, allowing for easier removal. This should alleviate your streaking....(With any product)
