Removing Thick Traffic Film and Road Grime: Which Cleaner Works Best?

[@marlonbhagwandeen6251]

@petethompson, I agree 100%!!! Too often, detailers use clean to almost clean (light dust) cars to demonstrate cleaning products. Great video - thoroughly enjoyed it!

[@ioannislazaridis6159]

Excellent presentation. We , that we just own a car , could never understand how a traffic film remover works. Is impressive the results taking in consideration that just traffic film remover solutions were on that dirty door.

Try that test with ZEP professional truck and trailer wash versus Purple Power vehicle and boat wash versus Krud Kutter vehicle and boat wash.

That's a great idea, and Ill prob do that come winter when the road film is really bad.

[@mujjuman]

i used to swear by Purple Power vehicle and boat wash but it left behind too much crud on my last car wash which was disappointing.

[@agradoville]

Would love to see Super Clean in purple bottle

[@petethompson1282]

finally a mucky car!

Good review bro.So when removing road film with a degreaser it also removes wax or sealant? Do we need to reapply protection such as a paint sealant or wax? Thanks for showing

[@YourCleanCar]

Most likely it's going to remove basic wax yes. Although some sealants and durable waxes can stand up to some film removers in my experience. Notably Collinites Super Double Coat will stand up to a one time de-greaser.

Would these products be safe to clean baked-on road grime/film from plastic painted exterior trim? That stuff is like concrete.

[@skzion2]

The issue is that you do not want to remove coatings (wax, sealant).

[@domlong7056]

Wax? Oh no.. not the wax

[@jsx4027]

Interesting test, I'd like to see another video with a waterless car wash comparison.

[@YourCleanCar]

Good idea, and noted.

[@petethompson1282]

Try the carplan/Demon tfr and power maxxed stuff. Also maybe try some spray /drying aid waxes

[@fitspirit]

Maybe the Dawn would have worked at a stronger concentration

[@yutehube7633]

What about Muc-Off and Traffic Film Remover?

[@carlhunsicker9585]

Just use a good presoak at a self serve car wash then a hot pressure wash then a rinseless wash.

[@Brandon-no3vc]

Your suposed to blast the dirt off b4 you spray any thing on the paint

[@genysmenrunner1677]

Does spray nine, meguiars and turtle wax will trip wax, sealant or coating using them every week?

[@genysmenrunner1677]

How do you dilute purple power?

[@genysmenrunner1677]

Have you tried using any of these products with a foam cannon? Do you think it has more power cleaning?

[@genysmenrunner1677]

You said the wax is petro distillate?

[@genysmenrunner1677]

Excuse me but I am confused, your point is that meguiars have petroleum distillate but does not have carnauba wax? Thanks for the patience!

[@genysmenrunner1677]

Almost every time do you use this kind of methods, of super degreaser, simple green etc when you have a dirty car like that? Well almost everytime you must use the spray wax in your clients car? Because this will degrade some of the protection
