Introducing Panel Prep, a comprehensive and highly effective solution for thorough surface preparation. The unique formulation of isopropyl alcohol, specialized degreasers, and surfactants work together to eliminate any residual compounds and polishing oils that may have been left behind from previous detailing steps, resulting in a completely clean surface that is ready for further treatment. The inclusion of a sophisticated foaming agent not only provides a smooth and effortless application, but also acts as a lubricant to minimize the risk of swirling or any other forms of marring during the preparation process.
As the first and crucial step in any surface protection routine, Panel Prep ensures that the subsequent waxing, sealing, or coating steps will be able to perform at their maximum potential. The ability of Panel Prep to clean and prepare surfaces thoroughly, in combination with its user-friendly formula, makes it an essential tool for both professional detailers and DIY enthusiasts alike.
Whether you are looking for your true finish during polishing or simply ensuring the longevity of your paint's protection, Panel Prep is an indispensable part of your detailing arsenal.
