Applicator marks or streaks

Associated with partially cured finishes. When an applicator is drawn across the surface of half-set finish, especially when applying a new section of finish, the lapped area is deglossed leaving a streak. Usually caused by thin films, which have faster curing times than the surrounding area. May also be caused by inadequate agitation of satin and semi-gloss finishes, which allows "settling" of glossing agents.
