0 Holder Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Did you use it in direct sunlight? Possibly didn't shake well before use? I have a 14 Silverado and ill get streaks if I use too much product or I'm applying in the sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SYMAWD Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 If it's smooth plastic it will almost always streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 USCGRetiredJosh Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Bottle was shaken up. Not applied in direct sun light. here ares some pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rich Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Same thing that happens with leather conditiioner. It's soaking it up at different rates. Therefore you have streaking. Reapply and wipe as many times as needed until you get a uniform look. It's not uncommon. Just that some parts of fabrics are dryer than others and it absorbs at a faster rate and leaves streaks. When the dry areas have enough moisture, it'll all be even. Chris@Adams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 egott_91 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Could also be a reaction with something the dealer applied if they "detailed" it before you bought it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 USCGRetiredJosh Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Thanks for the info. I will try tomorrow since I'm home "sick" from work. I plan on washing, clay baring and wax my truck. I will try and reapply the Interior detailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kitt1987 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 On those door panels you can even try VRT(after cleaning) and it offers some protection and won't run when you open the door in the rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitt you are correct. I just posted in another thread about this. 1:1 is the dilution for interior dressing, works great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ricky Bobby Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) Would all purpose cleaner be too aggressive to clean interior door panels prior to using detailer or conditioner?It may be too aggressive full strength. I would start with 5:1 dilution and go up to 3:1 max Personally it's my only qualm about TID is the slight dressing aspect. Imo it should be more of an interior quick detailer product and remove the dressing aspect, bump up the cleaning and keep uv protection. If you want a dressed interior then follow with Leather & Interior Conditioner. Edited September 8, 2015 by Ricky Bobby PT3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chris@Adams Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Adam doesn't recommend using SVRT on interior surfaces. NOTE: Adam's Super VRT Tire & Trim Dressing is for exterior use. For interior leather, vinyl and plastic use Adam's Leather & Interior Conditioner or Adam's Total Interior Detailer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Performance Auto Detailing Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Adam doesn't recommend using SVRT on interior surfaces. NOTE: Adam's Super VRT Tire & Trim Dressing is for exterior use. For interior leather, vinyl and plastic use Adam's Leather & Interior Conditioner or Adam's Total Interior Detailer VRT is great on the interior at 1:1. I even recall Dylan recommending it for Door panels in the past. Nothing keeping it from working great on the interior. Marcos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mc2hill Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Would all purpose cleaner be too aggressive to clean interior door panels prior to using detailer or conditioner? I often use APC at 1 part APC to 4 parts water to clean door panels, etc. Just enough power to clean, but not enough to dry out anything. Follow-up with TID or LC.
