Before you reach for the ceramic coating, make sure the paintwork is properly clean. CARPRO Eraser removes polishing oils and hidden residues so you're not sealing them beneath your protection.
You've spent hours polishing the paintwork, the finish looks fantastic and you're ready to apply your ceramic coating. There's just one thing worth doing first. Polishing compounds leave behind oils and residues that can make the finish look better than it really is, and those same residues can interfere with how your chosen protection bonds to the surface. That's where CARPRO Eraser comes in.
Eraser is a dedicated panel wipe that removes polishing oils, silicones, fillers and dust. It's particularly useful after machine polishing because it gives you a clearer picture of the finish you've actually achieved. If there are still faint marks hiding beneath the polishing oils, now's the time to find them rather than discovering them after you've applied a coating.
CARPRO uses a blend of alcohols and surfactants rather than relying on alcohol alone. The combination helps break down and remove oily residues, leaving the surface ready for the next stage. It's also formulated with an anti-static effect, which is a welcome bonus when you're trying to keep dust off freshly prepared paintwork.
We'd consider Eraser an essential part of preparing a car for CARPRO CQUARTZ coatings, particularly after carrying out any paint correction. It's also useful for checking your polishing results as you work. A quick wipe, a good inspection light and you'll have a much better idea of whether the panel is genuinely finished.
It's simple to use too. Spray a little onto the panel or a clean microfibre towel, wipe the surface and remove the residue with a fresh section of the towel. There's no need to overcomplicate it. Just remember that Eraser is a preparation cleaner, not a substitute for washing, decontamination or polishing. Get those stages right first and Eraser helps finish the job properly.
CARPRO Eraser Panel Wipe is an alcohol-based surface preparation cleaner designed to remove polishing oils, silicones, fillers and dust before applying paint protection. Developed for use with CARPRO's CQUARTZ ceramic coatings, it also makes an excellent inspection spray for checking paint correction results.
Its blend of alcohols and surfactants helps remove unwanted residues, while the anti-static formulation helps reduce dust attraction during preparation. Eraser is ready to use, straightforward to apply and suitable for compatible hard vehicle surfaces.

For a complete paint preparation process, use CARPRO IronX to remove ferrous contamination before polishing. If the paintwork needs a final refinement, CARPRO Reflect can help improve the finish. Eraser is then used to remove the remaining polishing residue before applying your chosen protection.
Remember that Eraser won't remove scratches, bonded contamination or paint defects. Its job is to leave an appropriately cleaned surface for inspection and protection, so always complete the necessary washing, decontamination and polishing beforehand.

1) Prepare the surface:
Wash and decontaminate the vehicle thoroughly, completing any polishing work before the final wipe-down. Make sure the surface is cool and free from loose dirt.
2) Shake well:
Shake the CARPRO Eraser bottle before use.
3) Apply Eraser:
Spray a small amount directly onto the panel or onto a clean, soft microfibre towel. Work on a manageable area at a time.
4) Wipe clean:
Gently wipe the surface to remove polishing oils and residues. Use a clean section of the towel or a second microfibre to complete the wipe and avoid spreading contamination.
5) Inspect and repeat if needed:
Check the finish under suitable lighting. If polishing residues remain, repeat the process with a clean towel.
6) Apply protection:
Once the surface is properly cleaned and meets the coating manufacturer's preparation requirements, proceed with your chosen wax, sealant or ceramic coating.
