Protection Preparation

Protection preparation products are specifically designed to degrease paintwork and other surfaces with an isopropyl alcohol based degreaser or primer before applying a protective product. This can range from a simple vinyl, plastic & synthetic dressing to a ceramic coating for many years.

As with many aspects of life, good preparation is often more important than the work itself. This is the same with detailing. The results and durability of your dressing or coating will always be as good as your preparation was. A good degreaser removes all oils, greases and dirt before you start protecting. These are almost always based on isopropyl alcohol. While some like to make their own mixture of isopropyl alcohol and deionized water, it's not of the same quality as the degreasers you'll find here. There are many other ingredients in these degreasers that provide a much better degreasing than ordinary isopropyl alcohol and water! Certainly when applying a coating for years, it is a small effort to spend a few euros more and to do it perfectly the first time by using the appropriate degreaser and a clean microfibre cloth.

The protection preparation category also includes primers. These primers act as a foundation for when you are going to apply a coating. Although not many brands have a primer, you will find them here when they are offered.

Because protection preparation products often contain isopropyl alcohol, we always recommend wearing gloves.
