A ready-to-use acidic car shampoo formulated to restore hydrophobic properties on ceramic coatings and paint protection films through water spot and mineral deposit removal.
Key Chemistry
pH
3
Active Mechanism
surfactant cleaning
Surfactants
6 (anionic, amphoteric)
Expert Analysis
The disclosed components center around C14-16 alkane sulfonic acid surfactants at 10-20% concentration, providing the primary cleaning action in an acidic pH 3 environment. This acidic formulation targets mineral deposits and water spots that can diminish coating performance, while the anionic and amphoteric surfactant combination aims to maintain lubricity for safe paint contact.
Key Differentiators
- •Acidic pH 3 formulation specifically designed for water spot and mineral deposit removal on protected surfaces
- •Claims effectiveness in hard water regions where alkaline shampoos may struggle with foam production
- •Ready-to-use convenience with claimed dilution capability up to 1500:1 for foam lance applications
