Alternatives to Wolfgang Uber Perfekt Paint Prep

[C5Longhorn]

I've used WU Perfekt Paint prep and it's a good product but a little pricey. Are there any alternatives you have used that have worked well? I realize some may say just use IPA and distilled water, but I'm not sure if that is just as good.

I would appreciate any opinions. I was wondering if ONR + IPA would be a good alternative combination.

Thanks,

Rick

Sorry I can't answer about the ONR+IPA. I have used the Wolfgang Perfekt Paint Prep, it is a great product. I have also used Gyeon Prep, another great product. On a regular bottle the Gyeon is $10 cheaper, or you can buy 4 liters for $65.

You can get a gallon of Kleen Strip Prep-All for like $18 at places like Carquest. It does have a strong odor though.

There are quite a few options

CarPro Eraser Intense Oil & Polish Cleanser 1 Liter Refill

GYEON Q2M Prep - 500 ml

BLACKFIRE Paint Prep

The thing about Optimum Paint Prep is that the folks at optimum claim it has a catalyst for their coating. I've only used it with Gloss Coat so who knows if there would be any bonding issues with other coatings.

I think GTechniq panel wipe is a tad stronger than these and I have been using it more and more.

Anyone have any experience with Griot's paint prep product?

I use the M37 N-914 at paint prep dilution prior to using the M37 Paint Coating polish or DG Squeaky Clean. I don't take any chances.
