Why is it all flakey?

[Matt-16v]

Lol...
I have just bought AG SRP, and when i put it on and buff it off it goes all 'dandruff like'. I shake well before i use it and leave it on there for about 15 mins. Plus i only bought it a week ago? any ideas?

*Edit* - Btw I am a noob and the only abbreviation I know is the one above Lol.

It's always like that, nothin to worry about.

 

[makavelli]

its just the polish breaking down, the better you buff the finer the dust, nothing to worry about

 

[Matt-16v]

It gets all over my car and annoys the hell outta me though mate

 

[H182]

Just have to wipe it down afterwards with a buffing cloth or similar.

 

[Matt-16v]

Ok thanks mate. Any reccomendations for decent cloths? I need to get some

 

[makavelli]

yep as howard says, just get a decent set of microfibres and they will get it all off after polishing, make sure you tape up or cover the black plastics though as its a pain to clean off when you get srp on them

you can decent microfibers from all the online detailing stores

And try and apply the Srp as thin as you can.

Less product waste and Dandruff (as you call it) Lol

Rich will confirm, but if theres loads of dust, it means you are applying too much polish.

Try using a damp cloth and not so much product, that should minimize 'dandruff' lol!

Yeap dust means two things:

Using too much product and not working it properly.

Take a small five sized blob on a foam applicator and work it into a panel until you can hardly see anything to remove then buff with a microfiber towel. No need to leave it to stand, panel at a time on and off and move on.

yep a damp cloth always works better but try and use less srp. if you still have lots of dust then wash the car after you have polihsed it to remove all of the dust

 

[Matt-16v]

I'l try that next time i wash it mate . Thanks for solving my dandruff problem :clown:

I was leaving it about 10 mins and then buffing it off? Is this wrong?

Panel at a time on and off for the Super Resin.
