I used Panel Prep as a final wipe down before applying Phobic. It worked great. But what really impressed me was a purpose I didn't expect. Somehow I got a dollop of tree resin on my car. I didn't know what it was until I tried to wipe it off with my fingers and off came a sticky resin substance that wouldn't wash off with soap and water. I thought through my closet of chemical options.. I'll try Panel Prep to clean it. I sprayed it on a microfiber square and pressed it into the sappy resin and it started to come off. A few more applications and no more sticky residue! it was clean!
I don't think Panel Prep is usually the hero of the story but there it is - Panel Prep to the rescue.

Love Panel Prep! It’s super easy to use and makes coating with PRO so much better. It gives you a good bond and allows you to make sure the paint looks its best before coating
