The "secret to success" is to understand that oil and water do NOT mix.....
Goodyear Aerospace 303 is a WATER BASED solution....
Automotive "wash and wax" products are almost all OIL BASED solutions...
If you wash your trailer with Maguires Auto Wash/Wax (yellow snot), you're putting a "wet petroleum film" on your trailer. To then "go over it with 303" is trying to "mix water and oil"... It's guaranteed to streak and smear....
If you wash with a "auto wash/wax product" (most of us do) to protect the FILON coating and any wax that's on the surface (DAWN will cut the wax and remove it so we don't use harsh detergents), then you will need to give the surface a couple of days "between washing and using 303" so the petroleum in the car wash soap can disperse and evaporate. Once that happens, the 303 won't streak nearly as much, if it streaks any at all....
I use both Maguires "yellow snot" and 303. With 2 or 3 days between washing the sidewalls and then "climbing on the roof to apply 303, when it rains, the sides don't streak from the runoff and the sidewalls don't smear from the reaction of the oil and water trying to mix.....
