Restart
What it’s for
Mr Detail Restart is a professional high-pH prep wash designed to strip old waxes, sealants, polymer residues, and embedded road contamination from paint surfaces before applying a fresh coat of protection. If you are about to apply a ceramic coating, paint sealant, or wax and want to make sure you are working on a truly clean, residue-free surface, Restart is the wash step that gets you there.
Use it in a two-bucket wash setup or through a foam cannon for full vehicle coverage. Safe on clear coat when used as directed. The elevated pH provides the cleaning action needed to break down and remove the layers of old product that regular pH-neutral shampoos leave behind. Leaves paint in the best possible state to receive and bond with new protection.
If you are looking for a professional strip wash for paint prep before ceramic coating or sealant application, a Mr Detail decontamination shampoo that removes old wax and sealant residue, or a high-pH prep wash for foam cannon use before applying new paint protection, Restart is the purpose-built solution for a clean start. Available in 16oz, 32oz, 1 gallon, and 5 gallon.
