Default how do you remove or clean off the amor all protectant?

Hello,

The protectant i used was the armor all protectant wipes. The surface does feel smooth and looks nice, but I just bought a metallic trim kit for my honda accord. the instruction states that it can not be applied to surfaces with protectants. So i tried cleaning it off with various house hold cleaner, but before i give up and return it. I wanted to see if anyone has any experience with this matter.

thanks

if you want to clean and not stick something on top ... you can try lightly soaped damp cloth.

the alcohol sounds like a good idea, but it failed. these protectants sure does do a good job of protecting the surface.

I've seen these kits before and all that they use is rubbing alcohol. It HAS to strip the surface, it always does.

you didn't pour vodka on a rag or anything, did you? :eh:
