CARPRO EliXir High Gloss Detailer is a ready-to-use ceramic-technology quick detailer designed to enhance paintwork gloss, improve surface slickness and deliver excellent water repellency with minimal effort.
Developed from a concept inspired by CARPRO enthusiasts, EliXir combines the convenience of a traditional quick detailer with the glossy, hydrophobic finishing characteristics associated with silica-based protection products. It leaves a beautifully smooth finish and is suitable for maintaining both ceramic-coated and uncoated vehicles.
Its simple spray-and-wipe application makes it ideal for use after washing, helping maintain that freshly detailed appearance without the more involved preparation and curing required by conventional ceramic coatings.

CARPRO EliXir is particularly useful after washing, when the paintwork is clean and ready for a finishing treatment. Its formulation adds gloss and water repellency, leaving the surface feeling smoother and helping restore the appearance associated with freshly applied protection.
Although it works particularly well as a maintenance product for ceramic coatings, EliXir can also be used on compatible uncoated paintwork and vehicles protected with conventional waxes or sealants. It isn't intended to replace the long-term durability of a dedicated coating.
For regular washing, we recommend CARPRO Reset Intensive Car Shampoo, which is designed to clean effectively without leaving unwanted gloss-enhancing residues. Once the vehicle is thoroughly rinsed and dried, EliXir provides an excellent finishing touch.
If you're looking for a more dedicated spray protection product rather than a quick detailer, CARPRO Reload 2.0 Spray Sealant is the natural alternative, offering a more protection-focused approach to gloss and hydrophobicity.
For best results, apply EliXir sparingly and work in small sections. Spread and buff the product immediately using a clean microfibre towel, then follow with a second dry towel to remove any remaining residue. Overapplication can make buffing more difficult and may result in streaking.
Please note: EliXir is intended primarily as a finishing and maintenance product, not a replacement for thorough washing or paint decontamination. Avoid wiping heavily contaminated surfaces without appropriate cleaning, as trapped dirt can cause marring or scratches.
