Pretty hard to describe and it only shows up on dark colors. My previous Cadillac and now the black Camaro does not show up in my victory red Avalanche. It almost looks like it needs more buffing or something. like dark marbling or wet spots. I used to think it was due to using Z8 in the sun on hot days but now I wax and applied Z8 in the garage on a cool day. Usually I follow up with Z8 after the Z2 wax but this weekend I just touched up the car with only Z8 so it's not a fact of not waiting long enough for Z2 to cure.

HHmm,not sure on that.But z8 isn't really for touch up,z6 is more for that .

Z-6 is easier to use than Z-8.

When applying either, you do it sparingly, but Z-8 seems to require alot more shaking/mixing of the bottle prior to use versus Z-6.

I switched to using Z-6 only. IMO, it provides just as deep and wet shine as Z-8 while being easier to use.
