I let that sit for close to 2hrs and then started to top with NV Jet. From memory I did my territory next day so perhaps 2 hours isn't long enough between applications because while the Jet sprays on fine, the buff off is not smooth at all. Very grippy, leaving a very obvious difference in panel feel. I don't know what is going wrong, so help please!!

I did my daughters car with Jet on its own a bit over a year ago and that was fine.

I've given up for now. I'll try again in the morning. I don't have a lot of Jet left so need it to go smoothly.
While the two can be used like that, from past experience I had a similar problem putting Jet over the top of Lustre, to the point where I stuck with Jet on its own.

This is a known characteristic that sometimes presents itself, sometimes doesn't. I remember the NV guys saying to use a damp towel to begin with, using less product, and spraying into the towel and not direct. Temperature and humidity play a part too.

I hope that helps, I know how frustrating that sort of thing is.
