You’ve spent hours on the bodywork. Colour’s mixed, gun’s set — but if the surface isn’t properly clean, you’re setting yourself up for problems.
Silicone, grease, fingerprints or even fine sanding dust can all affect adhesion and lead to issues like fish-eyes or contamination in the finish.
Finixa’s DGR Silicone Remover and Water-Based Degreaser is designed to deal with that prep stage properly. It removes common contaminants including silicone, wax, grease and sanding residue, and can also tackle things like tar or glue when used with scuff rolls.
One of the bigger challenges, particularly on plastic parts like bumpers, is static. Sanding can leave panels charged, which then attracts dust straight back onto the surface. DGR includes anti-static properties to help reduce that, so you’re not chasing contamination again before paint.
It’s suitable for both waterborne and solvent systems, safe on plastics and rubber, and leaves a clean surface without streaking or residue. The slower evaporation also gives you a bit more working time, which can help on larger panels.
Like most things in refinishing, good prep makes life easier later — and avoids having to redo work you’ve already done once.
