Interesting to hear all the problems coating a car. PREP WORK, its all in the prep work and taking time to do it ! To much coating on the applicator will leave a high spot on the last stroke of your applicator, I go over it 3 times, once across, once up and down, one more time across again, smooths out all of the coating. Do small areas, slow down, no way to have high spots if you check your work before moving on to the next spot (2x2 at the most )-not panel-small areas at a time ! Use the UV light to see where you stopped, or missed. I find it very easy to use if you take your time. Bring your car to me and I'll do it for you !! LOL 

 

Curious to know if your experience is also with a black car or with a different colour.

Hey OP. 

Having the same issue on two black cars and came across your now old post.

Wondering if you ever went to a different product with more success?

No matter what I do, I get streaks or high spots. It's like they're not even high spots but maybe it's  even the UV agent and how it looks on black paint? I've tried multiple times now and I gotta say, I don't think it's possible to get this coating right on a black car. At least not the hood. 

I'm gonna give up and look to other coatings. Maybe try something without the UV in it. That said, I think that the UV part does fade over time. I had a streaky appearance (visible only in cloudy daylight) on one car and it's been a few months and I think it's dissipated or disappeared completely.
