    Remove & Reset

    Obsessed Garage Decontamination Soap is designed to strip any wax or sealant from your paint. This soap is part of a vital step in preparing to apply fresh protection to your paint, especially if you are going to be polishing as well.

    Ready to Perform

    Thanks to this soap having a pH of 10, no extra APCs or other products need to be mixed in. You have all the potency needed to remove any degraded protection or break down stubborn grime from extra dirty surfaces.

    The Best Washing Experience

    Between the scent, the way it foams in your foam cannon, and the slickness of the soap in your bucket, you'll wish you could use it for every wash!

    Decontamination Simplified

    When I first started sharing my detailing process on Rennlist in 2014, there was a guy that sent me his listing of preferred products to compare to what I was using. At that time I was simply adding some Adam's APC to Adam's Shampoo to aid in stripping the wax, sealant, or junk on top of whatever coating you have. He was adamant about trying Chemical Guy's "Citrus Red." I bought a 16oz bottle and loved it.

    Chemical Guy's discontinued Citrus Wash several years ago. After quite a few calls and emails, I got to someone in wholesale sales that was nice enough to work with me. They were making small batches to provide us with the solution. I figured I'd get the call at some point that they were no longer going to make it for me. That day came. They provided me with one last run that I got in 55-gallon drums in the Summer of '18. That sold out in seconds.

    Since I could no longer source it, I was forced to figure out how to get it. Now that I've headed down that path, I've decided to change the color to purple. When I think decontamination, I think purple. Also, the name made no sense. This has a pH of 10, so it is alkaline. Being Orange and called "Citrus" would imply that it was acidic with a pH below 7.

    x1 - 32oz or 1 Gallon Obsessed Garage Decontamination Soap

    • This isn't pH Balanced, so I make sure not to let it dry on the paint.
    • This is a solvent-based soap and is designed to strip and break down dirt, waxes, and sealants.  Use only if you want to strip the paint of waxes and sealants.
    • This does extremely well in a foam cannon and in your bucket.
    1. Rinse the car.
    2. Fill up the "Rinse" bucket.
    3. I add 150ml/5oz to my MTM PF-22.2 Foam Cannon and then fill the rest of the way by submerging the foam cannon bottle in "Rinse" bucket water.
    4. Foam the car.  By proxy, I end up leaving the foam to sit and run off the paint while I prep my "Wash" bucket.  I do not rinse the foam off the car. I want it sitting there to break down the wax.
    5. Add about 2oz of soap to your wash pad.  I use a Microfiber Madness Incredipad XL.
    6. Fill Wash Bucket that has the wash pad and soap with water.
    7. Wash the car using as little pressure as possible on the wash pad.
    8. Rinse to prepare for the next step in the Decon process: Optimum Ferrex. (I always rinse with Deionized Water.)
