Do you need to Pre-wash? CARPRO Lift
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- Do you need to Pre-wash? CARPRO Lift is a snow foam that "lifts" dirt and debris off the surface of your ride before you move to your contact wash. This may provide an environment which ensures less chance of wash marring when you come back over it with your mitt and bucket wash.
CARPRO Lift can also be used as a prep wash to help strip old wax or polymer sealants off your paint in preparation for paint correction or application of new paint protection.
Today Corey does a quick demo on how to use CARPRO lift and where it excels.

Awesome vid! thanks for sharing
Thank you! My pleasure!
Does this help good against bug guts?
CARPRO Bug-Out is better against bug guts. CARPRO Retyre is as well but is VERY strong so use with caution if you don't want to damage your coating.
@Sky's the Limit Car Care, Hello, would you like to review the new MJJC foam cannon S V3.0? Thank you.
I’ll take one if they don’t want it 😂 just playing…unless 👀
Hey! Is it okay that I use Lift as a prewash everytime before using Reset for the hand wash? My car has ceramic coating and I use a ceramic spray as a drying aid too. Does lift strip off that added protection the ceramic spray add?
Potentially okay.... but I would not. I would use Reset as my pre-wash and my touch wash if I was using it every week BUT if you add a quality ceramic spray topper like Elixir after every wash then it would be ok. Yes, Lift is going to remove at least some of the protection but if you always topping it then that should be ok.
@@SkyCarCare Thank you so much for the response!
I use Lift every time I wash my car which is about twice a month ..lI don’t drive my car much and it sits in the garage but I also dilute lift and then I finish down with a contact wash with reset.. my car is protected with the quarts UK topped with SIC..
For stripping off waxes and sealants, what dilution ratios do you use? I know it's a tough question, but you gotta start somewhere. Thx.
1:2 for sealants - 1:5 for waxes
You mentioned that Lift is a snow foam that is used through a foam cannon or foam gun. Is using it with an IK sprayer such as the IK 12 Pro not as affective as through a foam cannon or gun?
It will be at least as effective as a foam gun but not as effective as a foam cannon.
@@SkyCarCare Thank you.
Would descale be better cleaner to remove wax or sealant?
No, a strong concentration of Lift applied and then rubbed with mitt before rinsing will strip sealants better than Descale - or at least most sealants. Sealants that are more sensitive to acids than alkaline will be stripped easier with Descale.
If my car has a ceramic coating on it can i wash my car with this without stripping it?
Yes you can.
Hey Corey, I’ve been using reset for a couple years now and I always find on my BMWs that are ceramic coated with UK is that reset for whatever reason and I have a pretty expensive pressure washer set up over $1000 investment and I think I’m running 2.1 GPM and I always use correct ratios and I’m also using the same foam cannon you have in your hand..
Find reset will leave behind white residue on my cars with PPF with expel ultimate and for whatever reason they always leave Behind milky residue, so I never use Reset in a foam cannon
Thanks for sharing Brian! Thats really odd, first time I have heard of that. Maybe the soap is drying on the surface before it is being fully rinsed - only thing I can imagine could cause that.
@@SkyCarCare I work in a controlled environment. No sunshine.. I’ll take photos next time..
@@Schwabz33 Awesome, shoot them over to service@carpro-us.com so we can take a look
Can you use lift on ppf?
Yes, it is great for cleaning all exterior surfaces.
Hi I was wondering why can’t we just use lift for pre wash and also touch wash? It has alot foam and can be lubricant.
You can do that if you wish
Other detailers have found that Lift works better in lighter dilutions than heavier ones. Do you also have the correct pH for spotless 2.0 and descale on your website because independent tests have shown them to be at 2.2 and 3.5-4 rather than 4 and 6?
What purpose where they using lift? you vary the dilution ratio depending on what you need the product to do. if its just a pre-wash, then perhaps the lighter dilution is better and sufficient. However what if you are trying to remove a wax or weak sealant? A higher dilution ration is needed.
And to our knowledge and testing we do have accurate information on our website on the pH ratios. We test them here in office as well as with what CARPRO provides to us.
Where are you getting your tested numbers from? We would love to learn more about what the industry is saying about lift to further the accuracy if there are discrepancies.

@SkyCarCare Yep correct the lighter dilution was as a pre wash which they found worked better than a heavier one as a pre wash. Also the pH testing of both was from here which is a well respected car detailer in Australia ruclips.net/video/8K9YmAyFmCo/видео.html
Also thank you for your reply, you're actually one of my favorite detailers on RUclips because I have learnt quite abit more from your videos as a end user than other ones which tend to be moreproduct reviews without the little tips added in 🙂
@@snsum2853 We will check out that resource and see if adjustments are needed! We appreciate you sharing. And thank you for the support :)

@SkyCarCare I know you guys were waiting for some of your installers to do DQuartz reviews so thought this would interest you, it's probably going to be one of the most thorough reviews of it and it's also done by a certified carpro installer who is also a carpro certifier as aswell (same channel I told you about last time) - ruclips.net/video/MVUtFUdm9Qg/видео.html
Typical I heard from a guy who heard from a guy
Does Lift strip Reload/Elixer?
It will remove some of it but not all of it unless you use it heavily concentrated, leave it on a long time, and rub it into the surface with a mitt.
What do I recommend for maintenance wash?
CARPRO Reset :)
