$0.78COST/WASH
A SiO2-infused car shampoo that combines washing and protection in one step, designed for enthusiasts seeking hydrophobic enhancement with every wash.
Key Chemistry
pH Level
7.0
Active Mechanism
nonionic surfactant cleaning
Surfactants
3 (nonionic)
Expert Analysis
This neutral pH formula centers on a high-concentration ethoxylated alcohol surfactant (20-25%) for effective cleaning while incorporating silicon dioxide nanoparticles to deposit protective layers during washing. The nonionic surfactant approach ensures compatibility with existing protection while the SiO2 component provides measurable hydrophobic enhancement and gloss amplification.
Key Differentiators
- •SiO2 integration into the shampoo matrix for simultaneous cleaning and protection deposition
- •High surfactant concentration (20-25%) enables multiple application methods including foam cannon and direct application
- •Neutral pH formulation safe for all surfaces while maintaining ceramic coating compatibility
Potential Concerns
- ⚠Carries 'Danger' signal word despite neutral pH, indicating potential skin/eye irritation from high surfactant concentration
- ⚠SiO2 particles may require thorough mixing before use to prevent settling and ensure consistent protection delivery
