Expert Notes

Angelwax Stripped-Ease is a wax removal system and panel wipe for paint that needs a clean start. It removes old waxes, sealants, polishing oils and silicone residue so a new wax, sealant or ceramic coating can bond directly to the paint, and Angelwax lists it as safe for painted surfaces with a clean, residue-free finish. Use it after machine polishing to clear polishing oils, before any coating, or whenever you want to switch between protection products. Spray onto the panel or a microfibre cloth, wipe, then buff dry with a second cloth. Pair it with plenty of clean microfibre cloths and your chosen protection. The 500ml suits enthusiasts, while the 5L suits detailers doing regular coating work.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Painted body panels
  • Paint after machine polishing
  • Paint before ceramic coating
  • Paint before wax or sealant
  • Waxed or sealed paint being stripped
  • Car and van paintwork

Caution: Stripped-Ease removes existing wax and sealant, so only use it when you plan to reapply protection straight afterwards, and work on cool panels out of direct sunlight.

How To Use

Application

  1. Wash and dry the vehicle so the surface is cool, clean and dry.
  2. Work one panel at a time out of direct sunlight.
  3. Spray Stripped-Ease directly onto the panel or onto a clean microfibre cloth.
  4. Wipe evenly across the surface to lift residue and old protection.
  5. Buff with a second clean microfibre cloth until the surface is completely clean and dry.
  6. Repeat on heavily protected or contaminated panels if needed.

Aftercare

  1. Apply your new wax, sealant or ceramic coating soon after the panel wipe.
  2. Swap to fresh cloths often so removed residue is not wiped back on.
  3. Wash used microfibre cloths separately, without fabric softener.
  4. Close the bottle and store it upright, away from heat.
  5. Keep the bottle out of reach of children.

Top Tip: Use two cloths, one to wipe and one to buff dry, and change them often on a full vehicle.

The Brand

Angelwax

Angelwax is a Scottish car care brand based in Paisley, where it designs, formulates and manufactures all of its products at its own headquarters. The team behind it describes itself as innovators, chemists and perfectionists with more than 25 years in the chemical industry. Its first wax, Formulation #1, launched in 2009, and the range now runs from hand-poured waxes, wash and decontamination products to compounds, interior care and ceramic coatings, which Angelwax only lets accredited installers apply professionally. Its strapline is Heaven Scent, Wicked Finish, and scent runs through the range, from the chocolate fragrance of Dark Angel to Bilberry.

Angelwax waxes, polishes and protection

Waxes. Formulation #1 is a hand-poured carnauba wax of natural waxes and oils that needs only a thin coat, rated by Angelwax at up to six months. Dark Angel is made for black and dark paint: it enriches dark tones, helps hide light swirls and wash marks, and carries a chocolate scent. The Fifth Element is a high endurance show wax of four natural waxes and passion fruit oil, and Luminosity Matte Wax protects matte, satin and wrapped finishes without adding gloss, kept clean between washes with Luminosity QED.

Polishing. Resurrection is the heavy cut compound, rated to remove sanding marks up to 1,500 grade, Regenerate is the medium cut swirl remover, and Redemption is the ultra fine finishing polish that takes out holograms and P3000 sanding marks. By hand, Perfect Polish is a pre-wax cleanser with ultra fine abrasives, and Stripped-Ease removes old wax, sealant and polishing oils before fresh protection.

Glass and quick protection. H2GO is a glass rain repellent that Angelwax says makes rain bead off from as low as 20mph, applied after cleaning with Vision, a fast flashing glass cleaner that is safe on tinted windows. QED is the quick detailer for gloss between washes, and Alchemy is a metal polish for exhaust tips, chrome, aluminium and stainless steel.

Angelwax wash, wheels and interior care

Wash and decontamination. Cleanliness is a water based, solvent free citrus pre-wash made in Angelwax's UK laboratory, safe on waxes, sealants and ceramic coatings. FastFoam is a thick snow foam for the lance, and Superior Automotive Shampoo is a concentrated, pH neutral shampoo that leaves protection in place. Blue Rinse is a wax infused rinse aid for the clean, wet car, diluted up to 5:1, that makes water sheet off for faster drying. Revenge softens insect remains, Nemesis dissolves tar, glue and sap, and the Cleanse clay bar lifts bonded fallout, used with Uber-Lube.

Wheels. Bilberry is a non-acidic wheel cleaner, ready to use or as a concentrate, safe on painted, lacquered and powder coated wheels. Bilberry Wheel Wax then adds a barrier that slows brake dust build-up, and the same fruity scent comes as the Bilberry air freshener.

Interior and soft tops. AnGel is a water based, silicone free dressing with UV protection that leaves interior plastics matte and non greasy. Absolution cleans seats, carpets and mats, and Heaven for Leather is a pH neutral leather cleaner that keeps the factory matte finish. For convertibles, Excelsior cleans canvas, mohair, cloth and vinyl roofs, and Shield leaves an invisible barrier that repels water and stains on roofs and fabrics. Clarity is a super concentrated screenwash that can be used neat as a de-icer.

Kit. The Brush-Up set of five bristle brushes reaches badges, vents and wheel nuts, and the padded Detailing Bag has a rigid base for carrying waxes and bottles.
