    Cquartz U.K. Leaving oily residue

    Did you coating not get tacky when you were doing 4 passes during application? I could feel it slightly start grabbing the applicator cloth when I was doing it. How much product were you applying to the applicator?

    Cquartz U.K. Leaving oily residue

    I'm applying in a climate controlled garage at 71*F. I'm waiting around 3-5 minutes give or take and it's coming off but it's leaving an oily residue. Any help as to why it's doing this is appreciated. I'm using microsuede and microfiber for removal. I'm also seeing a little marring either...

    B&S urotec blue foam pad on flex 3401
