How to use
Work in a well-ventilated area and wear appropriate respiratory and eye protection. Clean and degrease the surface thoroughly, removing all oil, grease, and loose rust, then let it dry completely. Shake the can well for at least one minute. Hold roughly 8 to 12 inches from the surface and apply in light, even passes, keeping the can moving to avoid runs. Apply several thin coats rather than one heavy coat, allowing flash-off time between coats. Keep away from sparks and open flame, and let the finish fully cure before running the engine.

Pro Detailer Tips
Patch Test First
Before applying any new product to a full panel, test on a small hidden area first — especially on older paint, vinyl wraps, or exotic finishes.
Read the SDS Sheet
Every professional detailing product has a Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Review it before first use to understand proper handling, dilution limits, and safety precautions.
Store Properly
Keep products in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures. Extreme heat or cold can degrade chemistry and shorten shelf life.
