S&W Pretreatment

[CTDiesel]

Would S&W be useful to pretreat the surface prior to washing; similar in function to Stage One Prewash?

Yes it would! Some members have even used a S&W pre treat to QEW Wash. Stage One seems like an interesting product as it lets dirt run off. I think S&W lets it stay on the panel for QDing.

I have used S&W as a pretreatment on cars when the winter salt, brine, dirt accumilation is heavy on the vehicle. It does seem to loosen everything and make it easier to wash off. In my opinion, using it in this manner reduces a lot of minor scratching of the paint.

I have a love-hate relationship with Stage One Prewash - at times I think it's doing nothing and yet, I've used it to loosen mud which then rinsed right off with water splashed from a cup.

I'm planning to use S&W diluted 50/50 with water when my Stage One Prewash is gone but to date, I'm using Stage One. Do you dilute when you use S&W to presoak Kim?

I do not dilute it ... but that gives me something to try
