Full Description

CarPro Eraser is an intensive cleaner that removes oils, silicones and polishing dust from all hard vehicle surfaces, which CarPro says ensures maximum bonding for its CQUARTZ coatings. It also works as a post-polish inspection spray, removing fillers and product residue so you see the true finish.

Its blend of alcohols and surfactants is safe on delicate surfaces and contains no harmful petroleum distillates or silicone, so it is body shop safe. CarPro US adds that it pulls oils into the towel rather than spreading them around, and leaves an anti-static finish that resists dust while you coat. Sizes: 500ml, 1L and 4L.

  • Body shop safe, no silicone
  • No petroleum distillates

Expert Notes

Polish leaves oils on the paint that can hide fine marks and stop a coating bonding. A wipe with Eraser shows the real finish after polishing and gives the coating clean paint to bond to.

CarPro US explains why it goes further than an IPA mix: IPA loosens oil but can spread it around or redeposit it, while Eraser's surfactants pull the oil into the towel.

CarPro US calls this wipe critical to the durability of a CQUARTZ coating. Its blend of alcohols and surfactants is safe on delicate surfaces and contains no harmful petroleum distillates.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Paintwork
  • Glass
  • Wheels
  • Hard plastics
  • Chrome and metal

Caution: Wipe off straight away with clean towels, and change towels often.

How To Use

Prepare

  1. Shake well.
  2. Fold a clean microfibre towel twice to make a flat pad, about 8 x 8 inches.

Wipe

  1. Spray Eraser liberally over about 2 to 3 sq ft, plus one or two sprays on the towel.
  2. Wipe off straight away, with the towel flat, even pressure and a sweeping motion as you turn corners.
  3. Give a final wipe with a second towel and a spritz of Eraser before moving on.

Top Tip: Flip and change towels often as you work around the car, so you lift the oils off instead of moving them around.

Performance Benefits

  • Prepares paint for coating
  • Improves inspection accuracy
  • Helps coating bond
  • Removes light residue
  • Useful after machine polishing

Frequently Asked Questions

What is CarPro Eraser used for?

Removing oils, silicones and polishing dust from hard vehicle surfaces before a coating, and as an inspection spray after polishing.

How is Eraser different from an IPA wipe?

CarPro US says IPA loosens oil but can spread it around, while Eraser's surfactants dissolve oils and pull them into the towel.

Is Eraser body shop safe?

Yes. It contains no silicone or harmful petroleum distillates.

Do I need Eraser before applying CQUARTZ?

CarPro made Eraser to ensure maximum bonding of its CQUARTZ coatings, and CarPro US calls removing leftover polishing oils critical to coating durability.

How do I use Eraser?

Spray over a 2 to 3 sq ft area and a little on a folded microfibre, wipe off straight away, then finish with a second towel.

What pH is Eraser?

CarPro US lists it at pH 8.

HQ Suggests Tips & Insights

  1. Use Eraser after each polishing step to check the real result.
  2. Wipe every panel before applying a ceramic coating.
  3. Change to a fresh towel side often.
  4. Use it on glass, plastics and wheels as well as paint before coating them.
  5. After polishing out a high spot, wipe the area with Eraser before you re-coat it.
  6. On plastic trim, let it evaporate for 20 minutes before coating.
  7. Use it before a wax or sealant too, not only a coating.

The Brand

CarPro

CarPro is the car care brand behind CQUARTZ, one of the ceramic coatings that brought nano-protection from professional detailing studios to everyday enthusiasts. Founded in 2009 by car enthusiasts, CarPro develops and makes its products in its own laboratory and factory, and it has grown from a single coating into a complete system for paint, glass, wheels, tyres, plastics, leather and fabric.

The range is built to work together. The shampoos and snow foams clean a coated car without leaving gloss enhancers or silicones that would mask the coating, and the compounds and polishes are body shop safe, with no fillers to hide defects. The same products suit a first-time coating at home and the upkeep of a professional CQUARTZ installation.

At The Drivers HQ we stock the CarPro products our customers use most, from Reset shampoo and IronX fallout remover to the CQ UK 3.0 coating, with much of the range on the shelf at our Ilkeston shop.

The CarPro range: prepare, protect, maintain

CarPro organises its products around the order you work on a car, which makes it easy to build a kit that suits your car and the time you have.

Prepare. Clean and decontaminate first. Lift is a concentrated pre-wash snow foam, IronX dissolves iron fallout with an acid-free, pH-balanced formula and turns purple-red as it works, and TRIX removes iron and tar in one go. For paint correction, ClearCut takes out scratches as deep as P1000, Fixer cuts and finishes in a single step, and Reflect refines the finish before a coating. Eraser then removes polishing oils so the coating can bond.

Protect. CQ UK 3.0 is CarPro's consumer ceramic coating: 70% SiO2, applied from 3 to 40°C and rated for 18 to 24 months. There are dedicated coatings for film and plastic trim (CQUARTZ Skin), glass (GForce, built on CarPro's DQUARTZ nano-diamond technology) and leather (CQuartz Leather 2.0), plus quicker options such as HydrO2, a spray-on, rinse-off silica sealant rated for up to 6 months.

Maintain. Reset is the pH-neutral shampoo made for coated cars and dilutes 1:500. Hydro Foam washes and leaves a silica layer in one step, ECH2O is a waterless wash and quick detailer, and MFX restores the absorbency of your microfibre towels.

Shop CarPro by type: ceramic coatings, snow foam, iron and fallout removers, compounds and polishes, paint sealants and glass coatings.

Where to start with CarPro

New to CarPro? Start with the products that make the biggest difference to a normal wash: Reset, Lift and a pair of Dilute bottles, which have printed ratios from 1:1 to 1:30 so every concentrate is mixed correctly. WheelX is the CarPro product our customers buy most often: a ready-to-use wheel cleaner that is safe on coated, chrome and powder-coated wheels.

Ready to protect your paint? Work in this order:

  • Wash with Lift and Reset, then remove iron fallout with IronX.
  • Polish if the paint needs it, from ClearCut for deeper marks to Reflect for a final finish.
  • Wipe each panel with Eraser and apply CQ UK 3.0 one panel at a time.
  • Keep the coating at its best with Reset and a top-up of HydrO2 or Hydro Foam every few months.

For tyres and trim, DarkSide and Perl are the favourites: Perl dilutes up to 5:1, from a rich finish on tyres to a satin look on plastics, and ReTyre cleans tyres and rubber before you dress them.
