Amor all shield.
« on: May 08, 2015, 01:17:55 PM »
Hi just wanted to let y'all know I have a carbon wrap bonnet and spoiler. I treated my car to it for donington event. But since I polished it it rained. At D'ton it was noticed that my bonnet was turning white(sorry not photo's didn't think). I have used various polishes on my car but this is the first time I have had a reaction like this.

Maybe wash off the Amor all Jack, it must be reacting to the wrap which is vinyl? Does the vinyl scratch easily and/or is it glossy?

I think carbon bits need certain products mate so maby has had a reaction.
Maby try cleaning it with a mix of apc to see if it comes off.

I originally used this as my first wax before I started spending more money and going down the hard wax route but this in a spray bottle... mixed between at 1/5 in a 500ml bottle makes a terrific spray wax/QD type product that easily lasts 1-2 weeks. Beading is unreal when used on top of an already well protected car! Currently using this up just now before I use my products designed for such use, but it performs just as well as them, requires slightly more buffing though.
