Make sure to use colorless rags when dealing with Isopropyl! IMO Sprayway Glass cleaner works very well and it hasnt caused me any issues.

Helllllllo Pan I’m a little CORNFUSED. I now use Citrol bug and tar. You say to reapply protection after use with all these chemicals in the video. Are you saying the ceramic / graphene coating? Or reapplying my graphene detailing spray to the areas? I have both pine sap and oak tree oils. Thanks

@PanTheOrganizer 8 ай бұрын

Citrol is very powerful, such as many of the bug and tar removers. Those chemicals can potentially strip regular waxes and sealants, so you would have to check and see if you need to reapply the protection after use. Ceramic coatings (the ones in glass bottles) have greater chemical resistance, but again, depending on which bug and tar and sap removers you use. Citrol can likely harm even the best of coatings after prolonged use. So perhaps stick to products formulated specifically for automotive use. For the ceramic and graphene spray protections, it's impossible to know which versions you use, how resistant they are, etc. There are way too many variables to predict your specific outcome, with your specific protection. Just be careful, follow the instructions of the product you are using, and once you are done using the products, rinse the vehicle and see if you still have water beading. If there is still great water beading and hydrophobic properties, that's a visual indicator that your protection is likely still there and going strong. If the water just lays in a flat pool and sheets of very slowly, with no water beading, then that likely means you have no protection left, and need to reapply the protection. It's not always simple to reply to these questions by text. So I hope this helps.

I have Eulex and diy. DIY is the go to because it doesn’t give me an instant headache and actually doesn’t have much of a smell at all. Eulex is there for the worst of the worst, where you’ve tried every other chemical and none work. Eulex has saved me several times, notably with a truck that drove through a paint spill. Eulex did leave a residue on glass that I had to polish off by hand though. For minor tar, I can almost always get away with rinseless wash and a bug scrubber and just working at it for a second or two

Hi Pan Great stuff on how to get rid of tree sap ;). On a related issue, I have just had my windscreen replaced and the garage has left me with some of the sealant on my light grey headliner - any ideas on how to remove it? I was thinking the goo gone might work? Paul

Hi. Platinum Auto Glass here. What you probably have is Urethane. The glass shop should have some Sika Urethane Remover. If they put it there then let them take it off. If it’s actually urethane (not just dirty/oily fingers) and you waited this long it’s going to be a fun job. Urethane remover is very similar to a citrus based cleaner. You don’t want to rub because you’ll spread it around like you won’t believe. Blotting is better.

@PanTheOrganizer 10 ай бұрын

Did you mean an all-in-one? An all-in-one is a polish that also contains a bit of protection. This is my current favourite: bit.ly/3QAM40h A "one step" is typically just a pure polish (no protection in it) when you are doing paint correction. A two-step polish is starting with a compound, and finishing with a polish. A one-step polish is just using a polish (no compound).

I have a huge sap problem so this video was great. However, while I’m sure CG butter wet wax can work for fresh sap or specific types of sap, but if its caked on and months old, it will not work, I have tried it multiple times and I eventually sent the butter wet wax back to amazon. Ill have to get some of the DIY sap remover or Eulex. The tried an true remover that will remove practically anything that you mentioned is IPA. I’m just terrified of using it all over my car since I dont have a water supply to rinse off. Is there any issues with leaving IPA on a car or is my clear coat destroyed? Should I invest in a pump sprayer to help spray water to rinse off?

Hello , can I use a high ph soap as a pre wash and then use a ph neutral soap as a contact wash ?

@PanTheOrganizer 10 ай бұрын

I would not recommend an alkaline snow foam for pre-wash for regular weekly washes. It's not needed. You would use that once ever month or every other month perhaps, to remove deeper grime and road film. For regular weekly washes, a pH neutral snow foam is all you need. Repeated use of alkaline snow foams can start stripping regular waxes and sealants, and could potentially weaken even ceramic coatings.

Can I use the bilt Hamber touch less as my contact wash ? Or can I use a ph neutral soap.

@PanTheOrganizer 10 ай бұрын

Touch-Less is only for the pre-wash in the foam cannon. Not for the bucket wash. If you are detailing the vehicle in preparation for application of a new wax or coating, I would pre-wash with Touch-Less and then wash with CarPro Descale (will help strip off older waxes and remove mineral deposits). If the vehicle already has good protection and is only in for a maintenance wash, I would simply use a pH neutral snow foam and a pH neutral shampoo.

Bienvenue sur ma chaîne! Tu as découvert l’une des plus grosses chaînes de detailing sur KZfaq alors que nous avons surpassé les 920,000 abonnés et 120 millions de visionnements. Ça fait plus de 26 ans que je fais de l’esthétique de voitures et j’adore partager mes connaissances et ma passion avec mes auditeurs! As-tu passé la barre d'argile après le décontaminant ferreux? Et après les étapes de décontamination, as-tu fais le polissage de la carrosserie à l'aide d'une polisseuse? Le polissage est une étape cruciale avant la pose d'une céramique, pour multiples raisons: 1) ça enlève les rayures et tourbillons et l'oxidation 2) ça augmente dramatiquement le niveau de lustre de la peinture (c'est avec les étapes de polissage qu'on augmente le lustre le plus, beaucoup plus que par l'application d'une céramique ou un cire) 3) ça assure de retirer toute ancienne protection qui serait sur la peinture (ancienne cire ou scellant) afin d'assurer d'avoir un vernis 100% vierge, étape super importante afin que la céramique puisse avoir une bonne accroche sur le vernis, sans interférence par une ancienne protection. L'alcool isopropylique à lui seul ne garanti pas 100% du retrait des anciennes protections. Une céramique est déjà un produit assez lustrant (évidemment, le polissage aurait rehausser encore plus l'effet gloss). Mais tu peux ajouter quelques produits QD (quick detailer en spray) que tu peux vaporiser par dessus, après les étapes de lavage d'appoint, pour aider un peu plus le gloss: amzn.to/3qAxew9 c3po.link/QCurWE69Ys c3po.link/QJr538fEC5 amzn.to/3KE0ZTA

Nice!!!! Sap and road paint isn't something we see in our island, but tar is something very common because of different patches of them being performed due to so many cracks due to fast expansion and contraction due to hot sun and cool rain and hot sun again, part of being in the tropics. Because of so much sun and heat we have here, road paint dries fast. Tree sap not as common like in the states because we are at a tropical island, so trees do not accumulate it. We are lucky in some things you experience.😁 Hope you do one vídeo for concrete removal.
