7 (anionic, nonionic, amphoteric)
Expert Analysis
SEMPER employs a multi-surfactant system combining anionic, nonionic, and amphoteric cleaners with dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid as the primary cleaning agent at 5-10% concentration. The neutral pH formulation prioritizes surface safety over aggressive cleaning power, while high lubrication additives minimize friction during washing. The formula excludes waxes and gloss enhancers to prevent interference with existing protection layers.
Key Differentiators
- •Hyper-concentrated formula requiring minimal product per wash while maintaining high lubricity
- •Complete ingredient transparency with all 19 components disclosed, unusual for premium car shampoos
