Panel Wipe – Pre-Paint Cleaning & Degreasing Solvent

Panel Wipe is a fast-evaporating solvent cleaner formulated for removing grease, oil, silicone, wax, polishing residues and other surface contamination before painting, coating or refinishing.

It is widely used in automotive refinishing, metal finishing, bodyshops and general workshop preparation where a clean, contaminant-free surface is essential before applying primers, paints, lacquers or coatings.

Typical uses include:

• Final cleaning before painting or coating
• Removing grease, oil and fingerprints
• Removing silicone, wax and polishing residues
• Surface preparation of metal panels
• Cleaning automotive body panels before refinishing
• General workshop degreasing and preparation

Why use Panel Wipe?

Panel Wipe is specifically intended for pre-paint surface preparation. Unlike heavier degreasers, it evaporates relatively quickly and is designed to leave the surface clean and ready for the next finishing stage.

For best results, apply using a clean lint-free cloth and wipe the surface while still wet with a second clean cloth to lift away dissolved contamination rather than allowing it to dry back onto the surface.

Always check compatibility before use on plastics, rubber, painted surfaces or other solvent-sensitive materials.

Important safety information

Panel Wipe is typically a flammable solvent mixture and should be kept away from heat, sparks, flames and other ignition sources. Use only with adequate ventilation and avoid unnecessary inhalation of vapour.

Wear suitable personal protective equipment for the intended application and always consult the Safety Data Sheet before use.
