Prep it right.
Protect it longer.
Drag to compare.
Protection starts with prep
01Clean paint, stronger bond
You would not paint over old, flaking paint, and protection works the same way. Detox removes the wax, sealant, oils and residue between your paint and your new coating so it bonds directly to the finish.
02Strong enough for polishing oils
A quick wipe that only moves residue around is not prep. Detox is made to break down polishing oils, grease and old protection, leaving a squeaky clean surface ready for coating.
03One prep spray for the whole car
Use it on paint, glass, wheels and trim before any coating, ceramic spray, wax or sealant. It wipes off streak-free and doubles as a quick glass cleaner.
