Pre-Coating Prep
Clean panels, honest correction results
Reveal Lite cuts through the layer of oils, fillers and wax residue that sits on paint after correction - the stuff that flatters a panel right up until you coat it and the real swirls reappear. Wipe it down before your ceramic or sealant goes on and you know exactly what you bonded to.

Reveal Lite vs. Generic IPA Wipe
Why a Dedicated Panel Wipe Matters
A straight IPA wipe gets some of the job done, but a formulation built specifically for post-correction prep handles the full range of residues you actually encounter after a machine polish.

Questions
Frequently asked
What does Reveal Lite actually remove?
It removes compound and polish oils, wax residue, non-durable fillers and general surface contamination left over after machine or hand correction. If something is hiding the true state of the paint, Reveal Lite strips it back so you can see what you are actually working with before the next product goes on.
Can I use it on freshly painted or newly sprayed panels?
Yes, but do not spray it directly onto freshly painted surfaces. Instead, spray Reveal Lite onto a clean microfibre cloth first, then wipe the panel. This protects delicate fresh paint from any risk of solvent contact before the product is diluted across the cloth.
How do I use Reveal Lite on standard cured paintwork?
Spray generously directly onto the surface, then wipe immediately with a clean, soft microfibre polishing cloth until the panel is dry. Inspect the surface and repeat the process on any areas that still show residue or contamination.
Does it work as a glass cleaner?
Yes. Reveal Lite is specifically noted as an effective exterior glass cleaner. Apply it the same way you would on paintwork - spray on, wipe off with a clean microfibre until streak-free. It is well suited as part of a final decon or finishing detail where the glass needs to be oil and residue-free.
Can I use it before applying a ceramic coating?
Absolutely. Stripping all polish oils, fillers and wax residue before a ceramic coating goes on is critical for proper bonding. Reveal Lite is formulated exactly for this prep step. Wipe each panel, let it air briefly, then apply your ceramic coating to a clean, bare surface.
Is it safe on trim, plastic or rubber?
The product description covers paintwork and glass. As with any solvent-based panel wipe, take care around unprotected trim and rubber seals. If in doubt, apply to the cloth rather than spraying directly onto sensitive trim pieces, and wipe with light pressure.
Do I need to let it flash or cure before the next step?
No extended flash time is required. Wipe until the panel is fully dry, inspect it, then proceed to your next product. The panel is ready once it is dry and residue-free on inspection.
What microfibre cloth should I use with Reveal Lite?
Use a clean, soft microfibre polishing cloth - the same type you would use for final wipe-down after correction. A dedicated panel-wipe cloth kept free from polish and wax contamination will give you the cleanest result and avoid reintroducing residue to the surface.
