So I believe it is safe to say the cause is not related to the cg cw&g being too aggressive of a cleaner and is more related to the surfactant not being able to rinse off completely.
+1 on this. When I worked at Lonestar auto tint my boss attempted Coating his car and then proceeded to wash it with CG Wash and gloss weekly and it clogged the Coating within a month. I offered him advice on what type of soaps to use but he shook his head when he heard the initial price. Can’t help everyone!

Re: CG's Citrus Wash...does it strip LSP's?
Everyone has been awesome on this, thanks! I should remind everyone that I did a 2BM wash after the pre-wash foaming using the CG's Citrus wash. I would've thought that would take care of anything left behind but it didn't. I think I used Gyeon Bathe IIRC, oh well, it's all good and I know now to save that product for "other" uses.

That was the stuff that was eating the bottle...so yeah maybe that will do something. Makes you wonder how safe it is for you when it's not safe for the bottle.

Griot's Garage pulled it off of the shelves when there was a problem with it, so now that it's back I'm sure the issue has been corrected, I trust them!

That doesn't change the fact that it was eating the bottle, and they had to change the material. And to quote Fox Mulder...trust no one!

So I take it you don't trust the new formula? I mean that's fine and its your right for sure but when I need to do a strip wash it's going to be the first product I reach out to buy.

I don't strip anything to be honest, I layer and boost them up.
