Crystal Guard usage question
Can you apply CG over the plastic or rubber of the car? I know if you get wax on them, they will stick in there forever, and it is nearly impossible to get them out of the rubber trim.
I never heard any problem like this for CG, can you apply CG over the rubber, and the wind shield of the car without problems?
I heard people have put CG over wind shield with great result. Anyone can confirm?

Okay, tried it out on a friends motorcycle (scooter, they are all over Macau)
Anyways, the scooter now shine, BUT it seems to hazed the badge (Yamaha), the badge seems to be made of some clear rubber type material...any idea how to get the haze out?
Also, the scooter is silver (so is my Z), and it shine a little more, but nothing BIG I was hoping for...is it because it is silver?
Pretty good result considering I didn't do ANY prep work on it, I just wash it, spray it on, hose it off, and dry...
Should I let the CG sit on the car for an hour or so, I heard this yeild better result as the CG have alot more time to cure...but it will leave a haze.
Any tips from the PRO...I will CG my car as soon as it get out of the body shop...hopefully soon.

I'm going to sneak my question in here as it does regard Crystal Guard usage and I don't want to overdo us on new folders.
This past week I applied my third layer of CG - over a span of about a month. Up until this point, I've gotten a really smooth, glossy finish. However, after this application, I've noticed as it's curing it appears to be "cracking". I'll describe this as best as I can: it looks like long horizontal surface scratchs (about the depth of swirl marks but there aren't any swirls visible). This is most evident in direct sunlight. In fact, it looks pretty bad in direct sunlight.
My first thought was a bad buffing cloth but I don't buff in straight lines - rather small circular motions and always use a clean, microfiber towel.
I honestly haven't got a clue. I'm hoping/thinking that someone here far more well versed with CG might be able to help me figure out what's going on and fix it. I appreciate any insight that might be offered.
