Details

Serum PrepTM is a formulated solution of Sodium thioglycolate (NaTG) and other cleaners provided in a safe, concentrate form. Serum Prep is used to remove ferrous (Iron-containing) particles embedded within the paint surface. When these particles are left, they can cause a corrosive pitting. Serum Prep reacts with these contaminants by forming Ferrous thioglycolate indicated by the appearance of a purple color development.

Surface decontamination is the first step in the "paint correction" process. Paint correction is necessary to fully realize the benefits of ceramic coatings. The better your "paint correction" the better the performance of the ceramic coating.

Supplied at 15% active solids. Serum Prep is diluted prior to use by a 4:1 ratio for paint surface decontamination. For wheel rim applications use 2:1 dilutions. Serum Prep can be used in combination with Brightener from our CLEAN collection to turbo -charge cleaning of wheel rims. Scented with our custom Mint fragrance to mask the natural sulfur smell of NaTG.

WORKS WONDERS!
This is literally one of the best spray wax sealants I’ve ever used! I always get compliments and will be buying this in gallons for as long as they keep making it. I also literally tell everybody I know the details vehicles to at least try it!

4OZ CERAMIC SERUM!
As a professional detailer, the Ceramic Serum by Dinowax, hands down, is my favorite version of the ceramic coating. Very easy on-off application, with great working time and excellent water/chemical repellency. Best of all, it's universal. Definitiely going to be stocking up for this year's detailing season.

Great product

Will purchase again it do what I need it to do

AWESOME PRODUCT

I've used dinowax products in my high-volume (600/month) detail shop and their products are awesome. I will continue using Dinowax products on my customer cars. Thanks Dinowax

wow Good stuff !

Really does a great job on the wheels took off a lot of old brake dust, Used it to clay my car really did a nice job. My 2009 Honda Accord like show room condition highly recommend really helps decontaminate the old paint will always use this when claying cars all their products are top of the line and affordable for the average car guy who just wants to keep his cars looking good,

Would buy again

I would buy this again. I’ve used it on paint and on a set of wheels that had not any sort of iron remover in months. Those wheels are so clean. I used this as prep before the Dinowax Sealant.
As far as how this compares to other products. I’ve only used Carpro Ironx. Man that stuff takes the breath a way from you because of how bad it smells. I won’t say the Dinowax Serum Prep is a basket of roses smell but I will say it is significantly better in the aroma. I also didn’t see the purple streaks that are see in Carpro or other iron removers. Maybe that’s a dye Dinowax doesn’t use or maybe I didn’t have a lot iron so I be removed from the wheels and paint of my car.
One thing that’s really great about this product is the price! Hands down the price cannot be beat. I’m just a prosumer detailer. But i will never pay $80+ for a gallon like most of Dino’s competitors!

Great product

Great product works really good.

rich c.

Have your ceramic serum applied to my 2019 Rave Black Platinum CT6....Unbelievable shine, depth, it lasts.

It's ok

Tried this on wheels the other day both diluted 2:1, 4:1, and just straight out of the bottle didn't bleed at all and with very disappointing results.

Serum PrepTM is designed for paint application. It can be used on wheel rims at more concentrated levels. Serum Prep contains NaTG which reacts with Iron oxide (Fe2O3) to form an Iron complex indicated by a purple color change. If you use Serum PrepTM on an Aluminum rim, no complex will forms and no color change. If the rim is coated, very little complex will forms and no color change. If the rim is painted, little complex will form and very little color develops. The point is, if little complex forms then it's not due to the product, but due to the reaction. Our Serum PrepTM does NOT contain pigments or dyes to mimic the Iron complex formation. Many competitive products are now doing this.
I am posting this review, regardless of the number of stars, to illustrate the fact our reviews are real. We also pride ourselves in teaching knowledge of the the fundamentals of not only the USE of our products, but also the HOW our products work. This information is essential if you wish to excel as a professional detailer.
