    Will panel wipe strip off csl/exo?

    Is panel wipe safe for csl/exo? Thinking of using it to clean the coating. Not a good idea?

    Also another question: I have a rav4 with CSL/Exo and was done about a year ago. It`s got some smudge spots that I can`t get off with standard washing. What`s a good idea to clean this up? Coating is still pretty good.

    Why not just wash it with something like CarPro Reset rather than using panel wipe? I doubt it will remove it.

    i agree, use a coating shampoo or reset

    from my Holy Sheet testing, I don`t recall using a panel wipe but I did use iron removers a few times and I can tell you that I think it knocked off my exov2 topper at 8 months (and 2nd iron wash)

    Well, that`s interesting; kinda throws the `decon wash` into question.
