ESOTERIC Strip Wash Shampoo

Purpose-Built Wash for Surface Preparation

ESOTERIC Strip Wash Shampoo is designed to remove existing waxes, sealants, traffic film, and surface oils prior to paint correction, coating installation, or protection reapplication. Unlike maintenance shampoos, this high-alkaline formula is engineered specifically for surface reset and decontamination.

Why Use a Strip Wash

Before polishing or applying a ceramic coating, it’s critical that the surface is free from protection layers that can interfere with polishing results or coating bonding. ESOTERIC Strip Wash Shampoo aggressively breaks down these layers while remaining safe for modern automotive paint when used as directed.

Key Benefits

• Removes waxes, sealants, and road film prior to correction or coating
• High-alkaline formula for effective surface stripping
• Ideal for decontamination and prep workflows
• Safe for all exterior paint systems when used as directed
• Compatible with foam cannons or traditional bucket washing

How to Use

1. Rinse vehicle thoroughly to remove loose dirt and debris.
2. Dilute ESOTERIC Strip Wash Shampoo according to recommended ratios.
3. Wash the vehicle using a wash mitt or sponge, working from top to bottom.
4. Rinse thoroughly and inspect the surface.
5. Proceed with mechanical decontamination, polishing, or coating prep as needed.

Important Notes

• This is not a maintenance shampoo and will remove existing protection.
