Paint cleaning, to prepare for waxes and sealants

Now that the car is clean and dry, we can prepare the paint surface for the application of protection. We do this by using Paint Cleanse & Restore. Paint Cleanse & Restore is a non abrasive paint cleanser that will remove any leftover dirt or contamination on the surface of the paint to ensure you get the very best adhesion of your last step sealant product, like Bead Machine.

Place a 50c sized dollop of Paint Cleanse & Restore onto your Circle Work (blue piping) pad, then lightly massage it into the surface of the pad with your fingers. In small sections (quarter of the bonnet, half of a front guard), work the product into the paint in an up and down/side to side motion, one panel at a time. Don't use too much force, but still enough to clean the paint. Once you can see a slight haze, or the product starts to go translucent (see through), buff the excess off using your Big Softie (blue piping), folded into quarters and to the low pile side of the cloth. Then, fold and turn to the plush side and buff off any remaining residue for a brilliant shine. Continue doing this process one panel at a time, till the entire car is done, keeping in mind you will only need to add a small amount (read: pea sized), for each subsequent section of car, or just add as needed. If your Circle Work applicator pad becomes too full of product or dirt, you will need to change it out for a new one.
