A neutral pH silicone-based quick detailer designed for light contamination removal and gloss enhancement between washes on coated and uncoated surfaces.
Key Chemistry
pH Level
7.0
Active Mechanism
silicone lubrication and protection
Surfactants
1 (nonionic)
Expert Analysis
The product relies on polydimethylsiloxanes (1-5%) combined with nonionic surfactants to provide dual-action cleaning and protection. The silicone component encapsulates light contaminants like dust and fingerprints while depositing a thin protective film that enhances gloss. The neutral pH formulation ensures compatibility with existing protection layers including ceramic coatings and traditional waxes.
Key Differentiators
- •Complete ingredient transparency with full formula disclosure (9 ingredients listed)
- •Neutral pH 7 formulation optimized for safe use over sensitive coatings and protection layers
Potential Concerns
- ⚠Silicone-based formula may interfere with future paint correction or coating application if not properly removed
- ⚠Limited cleaning power means it's only effective on very light contamination
