    Removing a sealant?

    After claying I usually do an IPA wipedown to remove previous wax before polishing. How would one go about removing a sealant.... say, WG DGPS or Jetseal 109?

    TIA.... TL

    If you are polishing, you are mechanically abrading the surface and thus removing any old wax or sealant. Save yourself some time and a step.

    Thanks to all for the responses. For some reason, due to the bonding of sealants, I was thinking they'd be challenging to remove.

    If your polishing the IPA wipedown isn't needed.
