SONAX PROFILINE Surface Prep is a professional-grade surface cleaner designed to thoroughly prepare automotive surfaces before applying ceramic coatings, sealants, or other protective treatments. Engineered to remove polishing oils, residue, fingerprints, and remaining contaminants, this advanced formula leaves surfaces perfectly clean and ready for optimal coating adhesion.
In addition to coating preparation, Surface Prep also works exceptionally well as a polishing control spray for identifying holograms, polishing defects, and missed imperfections after paint correction. Its powerful yet surface-safe formulation cleans deeply without damaging paint, chrome, plastics, or metal trim.
Developed by SONAX for professional detailing applications, PROFILINE Surface Prep helps maximize coating bonding performance while improving inspection clarity during correction work.

Why Detailers Use Surface Prep
Polishing oils and fillers can temporarily hide imperfections and interfere with coating adhesion. Surface Prep removes those residues so you can accurately inspect correction work and ensure your coating bonds directly to clean paint.
Pro Tip
Use a high-quality edgeless microfiber towel during wipe-downs to minimize streaking and maximize inspection clarity under detailing lights before coating application.
