Default Klasse sealant glaze

I love the shine I get with Klasse All In One. But when I use the sealant I get all kinds of smears and it appears the glaze won't come off. Any ideas? I do it by hand.

That's why I don't use SG. It is much more finicky than the newer sealants on the market like Wolfgang, Zaino, FMJ, 4*Upp, EX-P and others.

from the prez of klasse:

"
Q. Any tips for applying High Gloss Sealant Glaze?
A. Yes. HGSG does apply a little differently than All-In-One. Apply HGSG using a damp Microfiber or Microfinger Pad but apply less product (about the size of a dime) and wipe-on in broad, overlapping strokes. You can use a light pressure to apply HGSG because you are not "polishing", you're just applying a protectant. The longer HGSG stays on the surface, the easier it is to buff off. Apply to the entire vehicle before buffing. I will often apply HGSG in the afternoon, let it sit overnight and buff it off the next day. It will buff off like a breeze. Again, I buff by hand using a Microfiber Buffing Cloth.

Occasionally, customers will complain that HGSG is difficult to buff. In almost every instance, I can trace the problem to the customer using too much product, applying with a dry, not damp, applicator and/or not waiting long enough before buffing. If HGSG resists easy buffing after it is dry, simply mist the surface with any quick-detail spray and wipe with a dry Microfiber Cloth.

The klasse SG gave mine a beautiful shine, but I did notice a couple of areas I'd call a little splotchy. I used some detailing spray and a microfiber cloth and it made it better but there's still a slight smear or splotch.

From you experts, will i need to redo with AIO and start over, or just put more glaze over it?

It's kind of in the center of the hood, and I'm thinking maybe I didn't get it good with the AIO when I started

I've had that before. You will need to either re-AIO or wait it out (which can be a long while since SG lasts so freaking long). I've also heard that if you mix SG with distilled water and use that as a QD it works much better.

So the AIO will strip the SG?

and how much glaze would I add to how much distilled water to make a QD spray?

Klasse SG is mixed 1:3 (1 part SG to 3 parts distilled water) to make the QD spray.
