CARPRO Descale Acid Wash 1 Liter (34oz)
ARPRO Descale Acid Wash – 1 Liter (34oz)
Revive your ceramic coating. Remove hard water minerals. Restore hydrophobic performance.
Over time, mineral deposits and water spots can clog your vehicle’s surface, reducing gloss and causing water and dirt to cling instead of bead and sheet away. CARPRO Descale Acid Wash is a specially formulated acidic car shampoo designed to revive neglected paint and ceramic coatings by dissolving stubborn mineral buildup safely and effectively.
Originally unveiled at SEMA 2021, CARPRO Descale is engineered to rejuvenate ceramic coatings, nano sealants, and coated or uncoated surfaces. Unlike traditional shampoos, it’s not for weekly washes—it’s a powerful maintenance or prep solution to restore slickness, clarity, and water repellency.
