Did you scrape an inch of bugs off the leading edge before you put that Armor All on?
I do know that fiberglass gliders fly considerably better when they are clean and waxed, but they have a whole lot more wetted area than a KR and competition gliders likely have much more critical airfoils than the KR does.
