What is going on?

You are using 4 times to much bleach and adding a degreaser to a substrate that has a wax finish.

I did not see where he was using any bleach. Maybe too much soap that is stripping the natural finish, since he is using both f=13 and SH.

I assumed when he said SH he meant sodium hypochlorite(bleach). There I go assuming again

Is that 12 gallons 15% sodium hypochlorite?? If so all the plants at that house are going to be dead. Did you let it dry?? Can you post pics??
Apply soap from the bottom up, rinse from the top down. Thats a lot of degreaser and solvent in your mix... Kinda sounds like it was oxidized and you broke some of the oxidation down, but not all of it. If this is the case, more solvent, and less SH in your next mix, and you may have to brush it.
