YumCars Yum Panel Wipe

Yum Panel Wipe is a powerful 2-in-1 surface preparation spray that blends alcohols and degreasers to remove oils, waxes, silicones and residue before coatings, sealants or polishing inspection. It leaves paint, glass, plastic and metal clean, clear and ready for proper bonding.

Features & Benefits

• Alcohol and degreaser-based surface preparation formula
• Removes polishing oils, waxes, silicones and contaminants
• Helps coatings and sealants bond correctly
• Designed to flash cleanly with minimal residue
• Suitable for paint, glass, plastic and metal
• Can be diluted 1:1 for general panel preparation

Yum Panel Wipe is designed for one of the most important stages of detailing: preparing the surface before protection. If oils, silicones or residue are left behind, coatings and sealants may not bond properly, reducing durability and performance.

Rather than relying on a basic IPA mix, Yum Panel Wipe uses a more complete blend of alcohols and degreasers. This gives it stronger cleaning ability while helping leave a clearer, cleaner surface after wipe-off.

Use it after polishing, before applying Yum Ceramic, Paint Serum coatings or other protective products. It is also useful for inspection work because it removes fillers and oils that can hide remaining defects.

For regular surface prep it can be diluted 1:1, while full strength use is better reserved for more demanding coating preparation or heavy oil removal.

Recommended YumCars pairings:

Yum Ceramic
Paint Serum II
Paint Serum IV
Paint Serum VI

Pro Tip

Use a crosshatch wipe pattern before coatings: first wipe horizontally, then vertically with the second towel. This improves coverage and helps avoid missing oily areas around panel edges and body lines.

1. Ensure the surface is cool, dry and out of direct sunlight.


2. Spray Panel Wipe lightly onto the panel or into a clean microfibre towel.


3. Wipe evenly across a small section, allowing the product to break down oils and residue.


4. Immediately follow with a second clean towel to remove residue before it dries unevenly.


5. Work panel by panel and replace towels frequently.


6. For sensitive surfaces, test first and consider diluting 1:1 for general preparation.
