Alright I will attempt to cover all aspects concerning the recent failure I experienced with my current bottle of paint correcting polish. First a little on my background, I am NOT a professional by any means, though I have been polishing and correcting my own vehicles for 10+ years and utilizing Adam's products for the last 2 years or so. About a month ago (sometime around mid July or so) a good friend of mine came to me with her 2009 Chevy Silverado with severely damaged paint (honestly I have never seen paint look this bad). She wanted her paint corrected, so I did a test section on the passenger side fender with great results, I actually felt bad after the test section was done because the difference stood out. Then she decided to go ahead and start the rest of the truck, performed a two bucket wash, dried, and clayed the hood and fenders, we only had enough time to perform the correct in steps. The issue/failure was as soon as the paint correcting polish was applied to the paint and spread around with both my flex and rupes mini it seemed to haze like a wax almost immediately. I had zero working time with the polish as soon as it hit the truck it would haze and as I continued to work the polish it would produce a crazy amount of dusting. I have used this same polish on my 2013 and 2014 Ford Raptor with no issue (this was several months ago). I have recently placed another order for paint correcting and finishing polish. Looking for any input to what could have caused this failure.
*Temperature that night was probably in the low 80's (I live in the Gulf Coast area of Texas).
*This correction was being done at approximately 9:00 PM so no direct sunlight.
*My products are all stored in the garage in a storage cabinet
*The product was some of the first I have purchased so it may have been around 2 years old 3 years tops.
*Between July and August we did have some soaring temperatures in excess of 100+ degrees.
Let me know ya'lls (yes that is a word) thoughts on what could have happened.
