  1. I used the ceramic coating and then ceramic boost. The combination works great!
  2. Thanks. She wanted me to detail it for her birthday so I spent a couple of days on it. She got stopped at a roadside check last week and they asked her if it was a new car!
  3. Thanks. I'd rotated it 180 degrees and that didn't help but when I rotated it another 180 it fixed it.
  4. Ceramic boost is awesome. Here's a photo of my wife's 2014 SS Camaro. I stripped, clayed, and corrected it with Adam's correcting polish and finishing polish with a cyclo because it had water spots that I couldn't remove otherwise. This is her daily driver with 50,000+ miles. I thought it turned out pretty good considering. I guess I need to figure out how to flip the photo though? \
  5. I have my whole car covered in xpel and I think that magnified it. I noticed it on the car before I did on the windshield but it was about the same on both. I used way more than I should have but it's looking much better now.
  6. That's the same problem I was having on the whole car. I think I applied too much product and then didn't get it all off. It took a few wash jobs and detail spray to get it all off mine. On the windshield you could use something stronger and get it off fairly easily I would think. Good luck.
  7. The liquid paint sealant worked great and I thing the g&g will too. I think I just applied too much and the humidity was high as well. I'd ask someone at adam's about the brilliant glaze as I may be mistaken about not using it on xpel. I looked back through my emails and I had one that said all of the products would work since they didn't have petroleum in them. I wouldn't use wax because my installer said it would cause problems with dirt collecting around the edges.
  8. Thanks. I think this will clear up with another wash but if it doesn't I will try revive.
  9. Sounds like I used about 4 times what I should have then. That's probably the majority of my problem.
  10. I didn't take and pics but I doubt that it will show up well at this point. If washing it and using detail spray, again, doesn't clear it up I will try that. I have revive and brilliant glaze so either one is available. Is brilliant glaze ok for xpel ultimate? Thanks.
  11. I think the majority of my problem is that I used too much product. I used a little over a quarter bottle on a z06. I think if I'd used half of that it would have been enough. I applied and removed one panel at a time as quickly as I could. I was my car in my garage so depending on how much the A/C, or heat, is running the humidity can get high immediately after i wash a car. The outside temp was a little lower than the A/C setting so I don't think it's coming on a lot so that could have affected things as well. The car is covered with xpel and someone at Adam's told me not to use the brilliant glaze on it but to use the synthetic products like the sealants. The car looks much better after I washed it and it also looks better than it did before I applied the G&G. I think one more was or detail spray will take care of the problem and since I wash it almost every time I drive it I will know by the first of next week. I'm going to try the product again in about a month and use just enough that I know I have things covered. I think I had a combination of issues, too much product, and too much humidity. Hopefully next time I get it right. Thanks for the help.
  12. I washed it again today and polished some spots with detail spray after. It's better but I still had some hazing. Hopefully the next time I wash it it will all go away.
  13. I went over the whole car with detail spray again this morning, with a clean towel, and it still had a haze when I went back in to look at it. I took another, clean, microfiber towel and toweled off the haze again. It's on the windshield as well as the xpel so I don't think it's a problem with it being used on xpel. If it looks like there's still a haze on it I'll wash it again and see if that fixes the problem. I have a 3 hour drive tomorrow so I'll take the vette and wash it when I get back.
  14. It's indoors in a conditioned garage. I used detail spray on the hood and it seemed to help. I'll probably just drive it a day or so and then wash it again unless someone with adam's tells me otherwise. I think a lot of the problem was the sprayer. It would be a fine mist and then a blob almost every time I sprayed. I shook the bottle up every time I sprayed but it ended up putting a lot of product down. I only did one section at a time but I probably loaded it up too heavily. I had put on a coat of Adam's sealant a couple of months ago so I just used this as a touch up. I think for me I may just be better off sticking with the sealant. I'm going to try it once more with the dry application method and see if that works better for me. Thanks for your help.
