please advise on removing sealant / wax

Super Klean in the purple bottle, rinse, wash, decon, rinse, dry, IPA wipe down. That should do it and cost you almost nothing.

Poorboys strip down wax stripper works great at this. I have not found a product comparable at this point.

Try using Wolfgang Paintwork Polish Enhancer. That is what it is designed to do, strip old sealants, waxes etc and prep for new coating!

Only two ways to strip LSP with silicone polymers
First one is obvious, abraisives via polish

The other is chemical via acid wash like CS-II DeWax or even IGL Delete

I've tested various products and try and keep testing as many more as they come out
PH balanced, hi alkaline, solvent have no chemical reaction to a simple paste wax such as autogylm HD.
Products that claim to strip only leave a surfactant behind to mask LSP properties, once that surfactant evaporates, LSP properties are restored.

Doesn't work, nor does the McKee strip wash one .these were the two most recent ones I tested.

If anyone wants the best way to strip/clean
You should do acid, followed by hi alkaline, regular wash, clay o
If you want,as acid doesn't always eat all the Contaminates away,
no need for fall out remover with acid either.
Compound/polish, panel prep, seal

What about McKee’s Coating Prep Polish and/or claybar? Those 2 options always seem like the sure shot for me.

If the coating prep polish is actually a polish and not just solvent based then yes it'll work, otherwise nope

claybarring only takes off Contaminates, I mean if you sealed over the Contaminate than yes, you'll get some removel

That seems a bit too scientific to be real...

And how do you explain beading completely going away after I claybar the paint? Clay doesn’t leave any surfactants. And the D114 I use as claylube usually revives any hidden beading.

I was looking at a video where the guy was stripping the sealant. He was using car pro eraser & it was a Ferrari.
