🧽 Not Sure Where to Start?
A Quick Guide to Choosing the Right Arete Chem Product for Every Car Care Need
Taking care of your car’s appearance can feel overwhelming, especially if you're new to detailing. But with the right products, you can get professional results at home—without the stress. This guide will help you choose the best Arete Chem product for your needs, whether you’re dealing with scratches, dull paint, or interior buildup.
🔧 1. Got light scratches or swirl marks?
Use: Medium-cut polish or finishing compound
If your paint has surface-level scratches or those annoying swirls that appear in direct sunlight, you’ll need a product that can smooth the surface without damaging the clear coat. Apply with a foam or microfiber pad for best results.
đź’ˇ Pro Tip: Wipe off excess with a clean microfiber cloth and finish with a sealant for long-lasting protection.
đź’¦ 2. Paint looking dull or lifeless?
Use: Spray wax or gloss enhancer
After a wash, your car might not look as shiny as you’d like. A quick detailer or spray wax restores the shine and adds a layer of protection against UV rays and dirt.
đź’ˇ Pro Tip: Apply after every wash to keep that fresh, glossy look.
🧼 3. Need a deep clean without damaging the surface?
Use: pH-neutral car shampoo
A gentle but effective shampoo is essential to safely wash your vehicle. Our shampoo removes grime without stripping wax or dulling the finish. Perfect for regular maintenance.
đź’ˇ Pro Tip: Wash in the shade and use the two-bucket method to reduce the risk of scratches.
đźš« 4. Stubborn stains or sticky residue?
Use: Iron remover or surface cleaner
Ideal for removing brake dust, tar, sap, and environmental contaminants. These products work chemically, so you don’t have to scrub harshly.
đź’ˇ Pro Tip: Wear gloves and avoid applying on hot surfaces or under direct sunlight.
🌬️ 5. Interior smells off or looks dirty?
Use: Interior all-purpose cleaner + odor neutralizer
Your car’s interior deserves care too. A safe APC (All-Purpose Cleaner) removes buildup from fabric, plastic, and vinyl. Pair it with an odor eliminator for a fresh, clean cabin.
đź’ˇ Pro Tip: Test on a hidden spot first to ensure it doesn't discolor sensitive materials.
