Is your Undercover relatively new? I had a UC on my 06 KR and didn't have any trouble......except when the car wash guy treated it with their armor all crap - I immediatley sent it back through the wash. I know some folks have recommended using 303 on it......but I never did. Give it a good wash and see what happens.

I will take it off and wash it down with some simple green and see what happens, but these streaks are really annoying

I dunno if I would use Simple Green.....at least dilute it. I would try Dawn - that way if you do have some sort of wax type product on it, it will strip it off. But also check the documentation that came with the UC - they should have care/cleaning instructions. Better to be safe than sorry!

yeah i called the Undercover company and the guy I talked to said to wash it down with 50/50 mixture of water and simple green, he thinks that it's just road grime settling in the texture of the cover and washing down when it rains, I guess I'll see.
