Expert Analysis
The disclosed formula centers on sodium C14-C16 olefin sulphonate at 10-20% concentration, providing strong cleaning power through anionic surfactant action. The pH-neutral formulation (7.5) is designed to preserve existing protection layers while incorporating limescale inhibitors to reduce water spotting during the wash process.
Key Differentiators
- •High concentration of primary surfactant (10-20%) delivers exceptional cleaning power at dilute ratios up to 1:800
- •Formulated without gloss enhancers, making it safe for matte and satin finishes where enhancement could create unwanted sheen
