FAQs
Is CarPlan Super Clean safe for my car's paintwork?
Yes, CarPlan Super Clean is pH-neutral and specifically formulated to be safe for all types of car paintwork, including clear coats. It is designed not to strip wax or sealant layers.
Can I use this product on matte paint finishes?
While it is generally safe for paintwork, it is always recommended to test on an inconspicuous area first, especially with specialized finishes like matte paint, to ensure compatibility.
How often should I use CarPlan Super Clean?
CarPlan Super Clean is ideal as a pre-wash treatment before washing your vehicle, especially if it's heavily soiled or before applying a protective coating like Super Gloss. It can be used as frequently as you wash your car.
What is the difference between Super Clean and a regular car shampoo?
Super Clean is specifically designed as a pre-wash treatment to break down stubborn contaminants and insect residue *before* the main wash, without removing existing protection. Regular shampoos are typically for the main contact wash and may sometimes strip wax if they are not pH-neutral.
Do I need to dilute CarPlan Super Clean?
Yes, the product should be diluted before use. Refer to the product label for specific dilution ratios, which vary depending on whether you are using it with a foam lance or a spray bottle.
Can I use this product in direct sunlight?
It is best to avoid using CarPlan Super Clean in direct sunlight or when the car's surface is hot. Apply to a cool surface and do not allow the product to dry on the paintwork.
What surfaces can I use this on besides paint?
CarPlan Super Clean is suitable for use on car paintwork, glass, rubber, lights, trim, and chrome.
Troubleshooting
Product does not foam well
Ensure correct dilution ratios are used. If using a foam lance, check for blockages and ensure it's properly connected to your pressure washer.
Residue left after rinsing
Thoroughly rinse the vehicle, ensuring all product has been washed away. Product may have dried on the surface; consider re-rinsing or washing the affected area.
Dirt is still present after application
Allow the product to dwell for slightly longer (within recommended times) or ensure even coverage. For very stubborn contaminants, a gentle agitation with a wash mitt may be necessary before rinsing.
Product seems to strip wax
Double-check that the product is indeed CarPlan Super Clean and not a more aggressive cleaner. Ensure the dilution is correct, as over-concentration can sometimes affect even 'safe' formulations.
