This is my truck. Bob went above and beyond trying to figure out what caused this. I continue to use all of his products on my stuff. If this isn’t customer service I don’t know what is! Thanks Bob and Chris! Still unsure to this day, I am assuming something on the paint previous. Bob don’t worry you’ll never see this one again we sold the truck!

I had this issue on a 1996 kenworth T600 that was white. It normally cleaned up decent but the paint was getting slightly chalky. I went to a DIY wash bay for RV’s. I sprayed the soap on the truck and rinsed it off without it drying. It did exactly this. The black soot became so hard I couldn’t ever wash it off it stained the paint. And then had these super clean streaks. I’ve tried to find the chemical that would do this and never could recreate it. Had to be something off the road or some weird mixing of chemicals in the porous chalky paint

It was caused by single stage paint. I've had this happen to be several times using regular soap, dawn, PH balanced soap, doesn't matter. It's old oxidized dead paint, and the products eat that dead paint leaving those streaks. It's just old shit paint and it happens. Recently it happened to me on an airplane, had to compound it out to make it work.

I have actually seen something similar using Cajun Brown from Cajun Kleen. It has a ph of 12 and if you leave it on paint, undiluted, and let it dry, it will make the paint come off. It’s a great cleaner if you dilute it right, but where i work they don’t. They have ruined several truck with it.

I sent an email to customer service a week or so ago asking about the importance of keeping separate cannons for different chemicals ( I don't think they understood my point completely); the idea being what would happen if you mixed Snake oil in your Stars cannon without rinsing it first for example. Could you trap Stars under the Snake oil and if so could that cause issues or the opposite would Stars kill Snake oils effectiveness. Thought it'd make a good video for you guys to test out; this video got me thinking maybe there was some sealer mixed in with their cleaner possibly?

That’s an idea too, I do hear from a lot of customers who mix my stuff together, usually liquidx and mshine. Stars and Stripes are so opposite in ph that mixing them in equal quantities turns them to neutral ph, just seems to decrease performance by quite a bit tho

Those auction bucket trucks are scuffed and shot by truck flippers right over the rust , dirt, oil. They don’t even clean out the radiators or change the fuel filters. They just paint them (awfully) and tack on $15k-$20k and then tell you how they “fully serviced it”. They are only to be viewed from 50’ ft away. Don’t trouble yourself too much with that truck. Also that was sprayed with carb cleaner or something by one of the help goofing around I bet .

I would bet anything purple power was sprayed on there when it was actually dirty and caused this. I have had it do exactly what your showing when I have used it on equipment. But if you spray purple power on and hand wash then rinse before it starts to dry it doesn’t happen. So I would say it was sprayed on then rinsed.
