So I applied a coat too heavy.. Looked good earlier today. Now its hazey ... How can I get that haze off?
 
You can try detail spray, or apply lightly some more 845 in those areas, see if the solvents help buff it all off

:iagree:had the same issue, just add a light coat with buffer or MF, wait for it to haze and wipe off. Worked for me.

Agree a Lil of what was put on will help take it off usually.
 
Okay maybe do it by hand... The truck is an f250 crew cab. Not exactly small haha
 
I would do a rough and tough QD, confirm the haze has disappeared, and then a new layer of 845 spread extremely thin.
 
You could do a rinseless wash to even things out as well

I just noticed that I wiped it with a t shirt I had on... And the haze came off. Maybe it was just residue?
 
This is why I don't really use 845 anymore - so many other products come off easier - even baked on after 10 hours!
 
I did Wolfgang sealant topped with 845 on my last detail. When I came out the next afternoon there was a haze like you are describing. It was almost like it was sweating a little bit. It wiped right off but I wasn't sure if it was the sealant creating a barrier or something else. I put it on super thin and it came off with ease. I thought it was a little odd though!!

Im looking for something that can help to hide imperfections.. 845 does that pretty good for me.
 
I just did my two personal cars, and my work car with an initial pass of Poorboys Polish with Sealant, and then sealed with Collinite 845. (My normal regimen). Everything looks great, but after driving each car, the hood always gets a slight haze due to engine heat and outside temps. This is pretty usual for this product, but it wipes up with a QD, or next wash and is done. I think it is oils coming to the surface. I have experimented with thinner and thinner coats to the point where they are impossible to see, and even let the 845 cure for 2 hours before removal. Doesn't really seem to make a difference, nor does it matter after the initial haze. Hope this helps.
 
If it's just residue, wash the car, done.

It seems 845 can be finicky if not applied very thin.
 
Yeah I think its just residue from the heat. Because like I said it looked good when I did it earlier. Plus it wipes right off. I just used some ONRWW as a QD and it came off no problem.
