Wondering what the deal is with the 845 on our white durango. I applied a fresh coat a few weeks ago because I had some major issues removing some road grime on the lower portion of the sides. Two weeks later I proceed with my normal maintenance wash with ONR and I ended up having to use some Bug Squash at 3:1 to get the grime off. It wasn't nearly as bad as the previous time, but should I need to be using some sort of extra removal method. Does that paint just not like 845? On my other vehicles, I do not have to do this and they are maintained in the same manner. The grime just comes right off. Was thinking of trying something else on it.

A few weeks ago, did you apply 845 on a virgin paint surface by wash & clay? Per the subject you could have more bonded contaminates on the Durango if you are not applying 845 on virgin surfaces.

No..I just washed with hyperwash. No claying. Maybe thats the problem.

Yeah, probably. The lower portions probably need it. Baggie test and you'll know for sure.
