I use Sonus Acrylic Spritz to dampen the MF pad for SG.
With AIO I use a foam pad that spread the product evenly.

Here's an interview with a Klasse exec on the proper way to use Klasse

Be cafeful with 100% cotton, as most towels labeled 100% cotton still contain some polyester..which can cause swirl marks in your paint. To check, use a blank Cd...rub the towel across the Cd to se if it leaves any marks. If it will scratch the Cd it will do the same to your paint.

I use DF concours towels will good results. Sorry no info on Klasse but the sites mentioned previously in the thread are excellent sources of info about detailing.

I think what might be happening is I am not letting the AIO dry long enough. I rubbed it on and used a microfiber towel to take it off immediately after using it. I think it is leaving long streak marks. Plus besides using way to much.

there is no waiting necessary for AIO. Its an acrylic so it bonds imediately to the surface. Wipe on Wipe off. Streaking may alos be in due in part to your buffing method. Never wax on wax off in circles. You should use long strokes working from left to right, a good method to preven missed areas.

When I get streaking its usually due to uneven application of AIO and not turning the polishing towel often enough. You want to make sure the surface of the towel is as free of wax as possible as you remove the AIO. I also try to avoid dry rubbing any surface. Whether is cleaning, lifting polish, or buffing, I always try to make sure the surface is wet of damp before contacting paint with towel.
