Paint Cleaner

There are a number of products available for cleaning the paint on a vehicle.

These products usually strip back any already applied aftermarket products (wax and clearcoat), leaving just the clearcoat.

This ensures that the bodywork is clean. This aids in the application of a polish to help fill and mask any defects in the paint.

Some polishes contain a cleaning agent, and also help fill light swirls and scratches, potentially making this step redundant.

Example products;

Dodo Juice "Lime Prime"

Meguiars "STEP 1 - Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner"

Meguiars "Medallion Premium Paint Cleaner"

If swirls and slight scratches exist, then you can also use scratch reduction products such as Meguiars Scratch-X
