View Full Version : Looking for wax removal alternative

Been using Valuguard ABC Decontamination system which I like as I know all wax/sealant is removed but it's quite labor intensive. Have to literally wash the car 4 times and during dwell times need to keep areas wet.

Now that the materials are almost gone just looking for something that is as effective but easier.

Thanks,
Howard

Clay
Paintwork cleansers (Wolfgang, pinnacle, etc) by hand or buffer
Citrus wash
APCs diluted, etc

Many options

Hey Howard,

The normal clay process will remove the majority of sealants and waxes. There are additional products that can be used as they're designed specifically for cleaning the finish.


Klean Strip Prep-All
CarPro Eraser
Griot's Garage Pre-Wax Cleaner

1Z W99 foamed on the car (prewash) works very well. Broke down Klasse HGSG - and that's saying something.

Dawn. Just don't use it for routine washes. It will start to dry out the paint. All the above stuff works too. Also, if you are going to do any correcting, that will do it.

Griots Paint Prep. You only need to wash the car once.
