Adam's Polishes Strip Car Wash Soap (16 oz)

Adam's Polishes Strip Car Wash Soap is a concentrated acidic presoak that removes waxes, sealants, silicones, and road salt to leave paint and trim ready for a new coating.

When preparing a vehicle for paint correction, ceramic coating, or a fresh sealant, surface cleanliness matters. This 16 oz bottle of Adam's Strip Wash is formulated to break down persistent surface films—like winter salt, old wax layers, and road grime—without harming plastics or rubber. Use it as a presoak, a dedicated strip wash, or in foam systems to lift contaminants and expose bare, clean paint for the next detailing step.

How quickly will it remove wax, sealants, and silicones?

Strip Wash uses an acidic cleaning blend designed to dissolve and lift common protective films more effectively than a standard pH-neutral shampoo. It works faster as a presoak and is intended to be rinsed off before a contact wash to ensure all residues are removed.

• Formulated to target waxes, sealants, and silicones without abrasive action
• Effective as a standalone soak or in a foam cannon/gun for longer dwell time
• Rinse thoroughly before applying new coatings or performing paint correction

Can I use it on winter salt and grime safely?

Yes—its acidic profile excels at breaking down salt film and mineral deposits left by winter road treatments. The product is designed to remove corrosive residue quickly so you can protect paint and metal from long-term damage.

• Use as a presoak to dissolve salt and road film before a full shampoo
• Compatible with rinse-off procedures to minimize contact time
• Safe on plastics and rubber when used as directed; follow dilution guidelines

How should I apply Adam's Strip Wash for best results?

For most uses, dilute the concentrate according to the label and apply as a presoak with a foam cannon, foam gun, or by bucket-and-spout. Allow the solution to dwell briefly to break down contaminants, then rinse and proceed with a contact wash or surface prep for coatings.

• Recommended for foam cannon/gun, presoak, or diluted hand application
• Let product dwell a short time—do not allow to dry on the surface
• Rinse thoroughly, then continue with clay, polish, or coating steps

Will it harm trim, plastics, or existing paint when used correctly?

When used according to directions, the formula removes unwanted films while being gentle on plastics and rubber. It is a chemical strip wash, so correct dilution and prompt rinsing are important to avoid extended exposure.

• Designed to leave plastics and rubber unharmed with proper use
• Follow dilution and contact-time recommendations on the label
• Not intended as a long-term contact cleaner—rinse promptly after use

Who is this for: Adam's Polishes Strip Wash is aimed at car enthusiasts, professional detailers, and anyone preparing a vehicle for paint correction, ceramic coating, or a fresh sealant. It suits winter car care duties for salt removal and those who want a reliable presoak step to ensure coatings bond to a truly clean surface.
