HOW TO USE UPPERCUT IN A 2-STEP PROCESS

Step 1: Low pH Pre-soak

Apply Step 1 Uppercut to vehicle, bottom to top. The acidic mixture will neutralize minerals and help unbind road film from the surface.

Step 2: High pH Soap

Cover the vehicle with an alkaline soap (Step 2), directly on top of the Uppercut, bottom to top. For polished aluminum, choose a polish safe alkaline such as Panda. For heavier duty application, choose a stronger Step 2, such as Grizzly or Dynaclean.

Rinse

Rinse the truck, top to bottom.
