The product is suitable for use on painted body panels, glass, and hard plastics. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area before treating the entire surface to verify compatibility.

What is isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and why choose it?

Isopropyl alcohol is a solvent that dissolves and removes grease, oil, wax, and Polish residues without leaving any residue on the surface. It is a standard tool in professional detailing and is used as a mandatory step in paint preparation before Polish, Coating, or Sealant is applied.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does Monster Shine Isopropyl Alcohol Degreaser work as preparation before Ceramic Coating?

Yes, Monster Shine Isopropyl Alcohol Degreaser is formulated for exactly this purpose. The IPA solution effectively removes Polish residues, grease, and oils that would otherwise impair the adhesion of a Ceramic Coating or Sealant. Apply the diluted solution (1:1 with distilled water) with a clean microfibre cloth and wipe the surface immediately before beginning the Coating application.

What volume and dilution apply to Monster Shine Isopropyl Alcohol Degreaser 5L?

Monster Shine Isopropyl Alcohol Degreaser 5L is supplied as a 5 L concentrate. The recommended dilution is 1:1 with distilled water, meaning a 5 L bottle yields up to 10 L of ready-mixed solution. The dilution ratio may be adjusted depending on the degree of contamination, but 1:1 is the standard recommendation for paint preparation.

What distinguishes Monster Shine Isopropyl Alcohol Degreaser from a standard APC?

Monster Shine Isopropyl Alcohol Degreaser is specifically based on isopropyl alcohol and leaves no residue on the painted surface after wiping, which is critical prior to the application of Coating, Sealant, or wax. An APC often contains surfactants and additives that can leave a thin film on the surface, thereby impairing the adhesion of paint protection products. IPA-based degreasers are therefore the industry standard for the final step in paint preparation within professional detailing.
