Auto International’s "A", "B", & "C" Paint Neutralization System
A three step neutralization and wash system formulated to remove industrial fallout, rail dust, hard water deposits, acid rain residue and other forms of pollutants.

Benefits: Leaves paint surface uncontaminated for application of wax, polish or sealant. Allows for correct repair of superficial paint damage, reduces buff time on pre-owned vehicles.

Directions:
Three simple wash steps, no rubbing; see product containers for more details or visit the web site.

System comprises:
•A is an acid neutralizer that removes waxes, storage stains and neutralizes acid deposits, a solution of an 8:1 concentrate /clean water , allow to dwell for 5-7 minutes before rinsing.
•B is an alkaline neutralizer that is a blend of acids, which deep cleans painted surfaces to remove alkaline deposits and safely dissolves the ferrous metal particles bond with the paint so that they can be rinsed away. Allow product to dwell for 5-7 minutes, works well with detailer’s clay to remove contaminants. All necessary safety precautions should be taken whilst using this product
•C is a pH 7.0 surface conditioner a 128:1 concentrate vehicle wash and the third step in the neutralization process, which ensures any chemical residues, are neutralized and rinsed away.

Use separate wash mitt for products A and C, the use of the ValuGard Dispenser trigger spray container for products will ensure correct mix ratio and maximum economy

Methodology:
Rise
Complete rinse vehicle top to bottom.
Remove excess soil.
Be certain vehicle surfaces are cool to the touch.

(A) Acid Neutralizer
Mix acid neutralizer- 16 ounces of product to each gallon of water.
If you are using a proportioner, simply dispense 1/2 gallon of solution into bucket.
Using a dedicated wash mitt, thoroughly wash vehicle with solution top to bottom.
Allow to dwell 5-7minutes.
Do not allow solution to dry on vehicle

Rinse/Dry
Rinse vehicle thoroughly top to bottom.
Using a waffle-weave towel, dry horizontal surfaces
If rinse water continues to "BEAD UP" repeat Step 2.

(B) Alkaline Neutralizer
Using a clean dry sponge or wax applicator pad, apply Alkaline Neutralizer to all horizontal surfaces including roof, hood, deck lid, and the tops of the fenders and quarters.
Allow to dwell 5-7 minutes.
Do not allow solution to dry on vehicle

Rinse/Inspect

Rinse thoroughly. Visually and manually (by touch) inspect for complete removal.
Repeat Step 4 if necessary.

(C) Detail Wash (pH 7.0 Surface Conditioner)
Mix Detail Wash-One part product to 128 parts water (i.e. one ounce of product to each gallon of water).
Wash entire vehicle using a clean dedicated wash mitt from top to bottom, including the glass, bumpers, etc.

Rinse/Dry
Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.

Notes:
Always: Wear gloves and eye protection
Use separate buckets and wash mitts for Acid Neutralizer and Detail Wash
Never: Use on hot surfaces or in direct sun light
Ingest chemical products
Allow products to dwell longer than 7 minutes

Tech Tip:
Always use separate wash mitt for products "A" and "C". The use of the ValuGard Dispenser system for products "A" and "C" will ensure correct mix ratio and maximum economy. Other prep or reconditioning operations should be performed during product dwell times for best use of labor time.
