    Nanoskin Auto Scrub & Speedy Surface Prep Towels

    Mike,

    Curious to know are the Nanoskin Auto Scrub and the Speedy Surface Prep Towels safe for claying off paint over spray and road paint thrown up by tires from vehicles? I get several overspray vehicles each year and clay usually takes care of them, but after trying the Nanoskin Auto Scrub and the Speedy Surface Prep Towels at the Evansville GTG I can't help but think its time to ditch the clay. Didn't know since they are larger paint contaminates.

    Thanks,

    Eric

    At the Chicago get together , Divine Details brought in a car that had some type of industrial over spray on it that was over a year old if my memory is correct. He had gotten most of it off by polishing but some remained on the sunroof and few other places. The Speedy Prep Towel (medium) took off that which was remaining very easily. IMO I would use these towels and do a test spot first but I think you will find that they can do the job just fine. In all fairness keep in mind that there are all kinds of over spray which may require different removal techniques.

    Thanks for the insight! I figured they would handle it after see their results in the GTG, but I will just start with a test spot and see how it does first hand. My typicall overspray cars comes from companies spray painting fencing, buildings, etc and not having their mixtures right. Typically sprayed paint like this is suppose to cure in 3-5 seconds and not stick to vehicles... but it never fails, each summer I get a phone call with about 10 cars that got oversprayed! If the towel or pad can handle it, I could possibly cut down my removal time in half!

    I must say that I was really impressed with Mr. Phillips' demonstration of both products. I can see some real benefits going from clay to the speedy prep towel, or the nanoskin product, that I couldn't envision before the demonstration. I can also see where both products, not just one, would be beneficial to a detailer's arsenal.

    Both tools are also very easy to learn how to use and master...

    I missed the first few minutes on the speedy towel, which grade is recommended for overall general, light/average bonded contaminants? I see 3 grades.

    Thanks!
