Default Used Klasse AIO and Blitz and it looked good at first but now I have a haze......

can anyone tell me why this happened. It is making me nuts, the paint was clean and all and I applied both products really think and removed with microfiber diapers from Proper Auto Care and still like i said I got a haze after a while, I tried to remove it with some Sonax quick detailer and it seems like I smudge it more. All I have to say is that I am begining to hate Brilliant black

Default Try spraying water over the paint, and buffing again.

Sometimes water seems to get trapped under the wax, creating that clouding you're seeing (happens in high humidity conditions), and this trick seems to help with that. I'm a little surprised that instant detailer didn't work though....

Default that's my biggest gripe with Blitz. I love the shine. I love the ease of application. I love the

durability. But I hated the haze a day or two after I applied. I basically would have to rewash to get rid of it and I live in a dry climate.

I later found out from experimenting:

1) use a very, very thin coat.
2) let sit for 2-3 hours before buffing off. Helps the solvents breakdown.
3) buff, then let cure a day, park in the sun for an hour or two and then re buff again.

or 4) get a different wax : )

Default you're not supposed to put wax over the AIO. You should have a coat or 2 of SG over AIO, THEN wax

I've never used blitz, so i'll take the word of the others that blitz is at least partially at fault. But if you want to put wax over Klasse, it's recommended that you put AIO, then Sealant Glaze, then wax.

Default That is odd... (m)

I live in a very humid climate (South Florida) and have never had a problem with Blitz hazing.
