I watch a lot of the people on their KZread channels. I just like the way you go about things . You actually get the science behind it which makes total sense. Awesome videos!!!!

Scott I live in El Paso Texas and I would just like to say thank you for everything that you do and the time that you spend showing us products at work and no BS thank you sir
Mr. Scott I bought a gallon of Citrol off Amazon and used it today to clean 2 years worth of tar off the inside of the rims on my Jetta GLI. It worked a lot better than anything I have ever tried. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I was in McKinney & Frisco last week and looked at several NAPA's and could not find it, and they couldn't find it in their catalogs, so not sure where you buy it in Dallas for $39 a gallon. I paid quite a bit more for it on Amazon. But it is definitely worth it. The gallon may last me 10 years because you use so little of it. Thank you again for bringing this great product to viewers attention.
I can honestly say, I doubted this stuff... My 2000 dodge dakota was hit & it left paint transfer on the chrome & plastic front bumper.. I ordered my $18 can from Amazon & was thinking "this crap better work"... I get it in the mail & first try the chrome bumper, WOWWWW, I then thought, let's see what it will do on texture plastic.. Sprayed let set a good minute & wiped.. 50% was gone.. Sprayed again & let set another minute, put some elbow grease into & BAM it was GONE! ONLY thing left behind was the actual small pcs of plastics missing.. I have now tried it out on THICK grease, WOWWWW. YOUR AWESOME! I love knowing that you give your best advice off of your personal experience & not who is wanting to sell us something.. Kisses my friend! 😗 😘
You can lead a horse to water ..... Great video Scott! 👍🏻
2:20 - Wipes across bugs with Citrol on rag 3:26 - Wipes off Citrol to show final result 3:54 - Closeup of surface
Finally got around to ordering this off the internet as it is not sold locally. Can't wait to put it to some use. Thanks for the recommendation. Love the Chanel.
Just received my first gallon!!! I am excited to try this out!!

Mr Sparkle how did it work?
I need to try this product! Your recommendation of Super Clean was spot on! I finally found it in 1 of the Walmarts by me! I've used it in place of my Meguiars super degreaser and all purpose! I'm very pleased with the results this produces! It's certainly earned a place in my arsenal of detailing products!
Thanks for the video!
I found your channel A while back and I have a never turned it back I love this product
Thanks! I'm focusing on eco-bio safe cleaners.
Holy cr@p Scott, that stuff really works! I have been purchasing some of the products you have been showing for my new black Toyota and this was in my first Amazon order.
this stuff looks great, just picked some up cant wait to use it
You are awesome dude. Please keep teaching us.
I've also watch your other video on Turtle Wax Foam and it does work great but finding it in Florida, not easy. I just ordered this product this morning from Amazon. Bugs here in south Florida are bad too! Thank you for all the videos you show!
Love Citrol! Soooo good ! Took off clay and asphalt so easy peeesy!!
wowzers. will definitely be trying this. Curious, have you ever tried Purple Power Citrus Degreaser for bug removal. Just wondering how the two compare.
Scott, You Show 'em better than telling 'em!!!
Hey thanks for this video. I have this bug gut on front bumper and I couldn't get it rid of it.. I'll try this later! :)
FWIW, I use Oil Grabber Advanced Cleaner/Greaser. Removes bugs from painted surfaces with a spray and a hose. Similar to the Citrol product. Bought it at Big Lots for $6/gallon. I'd like to try the Citrol, though.
Scott can I use citrol in a matte factory painted wheel to remove tar without affecting the finish? I like your honesty and professionalism!
This is perfect for trip cleaning aircraft!
Another Great Video.
Citrol is a great product does a great job on hardened road grime also. I personally use a couple of sopping wet dryer softener sheets. Bugs come right off. Plus it doesn’t cost 50 bucks a gallon. I use the citrol for other issues.
Scott, I have learned a lot from your channel, thank you! While I like the idea of using this stuff, I'm having difficulty with the price. Purple Power Citrus Cleaner is also citrus based and quite a bit cheaper. I was wondering if you tried it and if there is any comparison?
Where I can buy citrol, any store, no amazon or eBay. I am in Nashville Tennessee for 3 days, thanks in advance for quick responses Scott your the best to explain the process steps by steps.
I could not find it locally but have a can inbound. I hope this is not really the last Citrol Vid you make! Thank you!
I just ordered a gallon of this magic sauce! Should be here within the next few days!

Hey Scott, I'm currently using a 3D product for bug removal. Have you ever used this on polished aluminum? The grill on our Peterbilt is show quality polished and any kind of acid will etch it. I'm going to order some just didn't know if you knew or not.
do you have to rinse It off after use to take out the citrus?
Took them off very nicely buying my own Can is a must! I own a black vehicle so it shows all the bugs
Question: do you need to get rid of bug guts from a radiator? If so what do you use.
can you use citrol on the paint for bugs everyday?
Do you find that Citrol removes wax\sealant?
Scott, will it remove Opti-gloss coating from the paint? And what is what is the product called? You didn’t show it in vid
What product do you recommend for bug/bird poop/tar/road grime. That can be purchased by the gallon?
Hey Scott. Great video. Thanx for showing me how to easy remove bugs etc from painted car without damage. Dont listen to scribsciber who " picked wholes in your suggestions/" your advise. Sometimes mate you cant help people if they have shit for brains. Keep up the great shows.
Fantastic. Nice
Hey just asking can u do a video on cleaning very dirty alloys plse thank you Aidan 🇨🇮
What about the black plastics integrated in the bumper, grills, and mirrors
Stuff made fast work of those bugs.
Going to try out the "Stoner Bug Eraser"
Thanks for all the info ! Don't let the negativity get to you. People don't always agree. Take what you want & leave the rest I say but it cost 0$ to be nice ! Anyway I was wondering if this is the same or similar to "goo gone". I've used it before and thought it worked well on different things. Is Citrol better ?

Scott, how is this on Tree Sap?
It says specifically to not use on plastic, what about the plastic bumper and grills on the vehicles?

Does it remove the 3M tape for mouldings? Decals? Does it remove gum and stickies inside the interior? Never used the stuff, i've always did the old scrub method with APC, Acetone, etc.
@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343
7 жыл бұрын
after removing the moldings or decals you need to remove the double sided tape with a 3m eraser wheel first but after that citrol will remove all and any glue residue from the paint and allow you to polish if so desired...that 3m tape will be rather thick once emblem removed and I'm not aware of any product that could break down that 3m tape in its thick form and thats why i use the eraser wheel to remove it...yes you could slowly remove the tape in small parts by hand but i don't have the time:)..and just use the 3m eraser wheel
Would goo gone work too? It’s an orange based degreaser. I’ve used it on my chrome appliances and it wipes the built up grease with no problem. Also doesn’t do anything to the finish either. Has anyone tried it?
Awesome but what do use for tree sap? Like from a pine or spruce tree...haven't found a great solution

I just wash my car every couple days...I live in Florida and it is TERRIBLE All YEAR! I go to the spray wash and hit em with the high pressure and just use my wash mitt to wash the front and the rest of my car. I would think the dryer sheets would scratch it or leave the residue of whatever chemicals are in em. I mean also all these chemicals has to degrade the clear coat.
Anyone is Columbus, OH that wants to split a bottle of Citrol? I'd never be able to get through a gallon based on the minimal amount I see Scott using! Seems like a great product!
Would have been nice if you showed the product so I can know what you used and I can purchase some! Lol I travel a lot and I get bugs all the time! Is it citrol? Based on the comments? If so, which one or do they just have one!!?
Hi do you sell this stuff? I live in NC
LMAO, haters gonna hate Scott, especially on the internet!
Do you use the spray or liquid? If liquid what was to ratio? I own a motorcycle that rarely gets washed. The finish is a matte black and I am looking to find a product that will clean bugs off the paint and Powdercoating.

Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing Thanks buddy! love the channel.
I use the original creme style Go-jo hand cleaner. The kind that is like animal fat and WITHOUT the crushed pecan / walnut shells. Put it on the painted surface, let it sit for a minute, and then hand buff it out. Follow up with a thick hard paste wax coating and the next time you wash the car, the bugs come off easy
I need to try some of this. I mowed down the entire population of butterflies it seems. I went to pressure wash all the shits off and I ended up busting a quarter sized piece of paint off mistaking it for a bug. So needless to say I won't be doing that anymore.
What about etched bird poop
I USE TURTLE BUG AND TAR REMOVER FOR HARD TO REMOVE BUG AND STAINS. STILL THE BEST FOR ROAD GRIME 😂
Use wet dryer sheets!
Why don't you dilute it and rinse afterwards as cautioned by Schaeffer? I'm afraid that if you use it in concentrated form without rinsing that it may soften the clearcoat.

Citrol of course works! It's made of :30-60% citrus. 10-30 butoxyethanal. 10% propane.isobutane;amide,coco,diethanolamine ;10% isobutane. The citrus could some kill some wax and sealant~

working in the real world Steven and cleaning a customers car that hasn't been washed in months plus bug guts left on the paint for the same amount of time, i don't have to overthink it because most in the real world don't even wax their cars as they should and I'm going to apply a fresh coat of wax anyway....even if wax was present under the bug guts and i used citrol to remove them it only takes minutes or seconds if i use a spray wax after using citrol...but yes if your removing the bugs on time and they haven't been sitting on the paint and burning in the sun for months than you could use a more gentle cleaner that doesn't remove the wax..but have you driven on the highways lately, do you notice how little people care about the bugs on the front of their cars or even if they are washed weekly?...the more time i spend on youtube it becomes obvious that most that are watching a channel like mine are taking care of their vehicle as they should and thats awesome but my customers aren't on youtube,they live in the real world with busy lives and for the most part their vehicles don't get the attention they deserve..and thats a fact!
but I dont want to rewax the front of my C7 Corvette after every use of this product, so I use Griots speed shine, removes bugs just fine.

Does Citrol need to be flushed off? Thanks for the education. Great vids!!!

how so
For some reason, this Citrol stuff doesn't work for me. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but it does not remove bugs for me. I tried it on very old bugs, not surprisingly, didn't work. But today, I tried it on brand new bugs which I acquired just today on a short road trip. No dice, still doesn't work. Doesn't even touch the bugs. I still have to scrub them off (scratching the paint, of course). I saw this video and it apparently works for you. It doesn't work for me and $17.00 for a spray can doesn't seem to have been a very good investment at this point. Can you please advise? Otherwise, I love your videos, but this shit just doesn't work for me.

Thanks, Scott. I love your videos and I assumed there was something wrong with the way I was doing it. Also, I just watched the video again and realized you were spraying the cloth first. I sprayed the car, then wiped it off. I just went out and tried it again and it worked much better your way. Thanks so much. I guess I will use this $17.00 spray can and then see about getting the concentrate next time. Where do I buy it and how big a quantity do I have to get? I suppose a gallon. That's cool. I do a lot of highway driving due to living in the sticks now and that equals plenty of bugs. Also I have a black car and it's really hard to actually see the bugs. Thanks so much. I love the videos.
