- It can be used frequently because it respects the protective agents previously applied, including nanotechnology-based protective or coating
- Multifunctional product: designed to be used both with pump sprayer and foam lance
- Its use with the use of a pressure washer makes the subsequent washing phase safer by eliminating 90% of the dirt, allowing you to wash the car without the risk of creating swirls or micro-scratches
- It is recommended to use with a Foam Gun with a dilution of 1:10 (1 part of product and 10 of water), or with a pump sprayer with a dilution of 1:50
- Pleasantly scented

Why, even if you wash the car by hand, personally and carefully wash after wash, you see micro-scratches and lines appear on the bodywork?
And when you empty the washing bucket, on the bottom, do you happen to find dirt residues, such as soil?
If the answer is YES, it means that no one has ever taught you the correct washing procedure:Let’s see it together:
Following the correct washing procedure, we start with cleaning rims and tires and their decontamination. The next phase is the Pre-wash: it is carried out BEFORE proceeding with manual washing with shampoo.PREWASH is the fundamental step that makes all the difference: we will in fact remove up to 80% of the coarse dirt present on the bodywork, without mechanical action, therefore without touching it.
Dirt particles firmly anchored to the bodywork, if you do not carry out a correct pre-wash, during manual washing will be transported by the glove or by the washing sponge with the risk of creating micro scratches (called “swirls” in the jargon) or worse deep scratches (called in jargon “rids”).
Only after having carried out a correct prewash can you proceed with manual washing in total safety. To learn more about the correct washing procedures, we invite you to watch the dedicated video.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
- Make sure the vehicle surface is cold and the car is in the shade avoiding direct sun .
- The product must be dispensed from the bottom upwards . During warm seasons, work on one panel at a time to prevent the product from drying on the surface.
- In the presence of mud, remove it with a jet of water before dispensing the product.
- Foam Gun Prewash is available in 1000ml format .
Let’s go back to the pre-wash: you can dispense the product in different ways, according to the type of dirt present on the car. With manual sprayer for localized action on specific dirt. The lower parts of the car are always the dirtiest.
By dispensing the product in low pressure diluted 1:10 (1 part of product and 10 of water) directly onto the dirt, you will have an ideal performing and localized action on difficult dirt such as midges and mud.
Wait a few minutes for the product to act to remove the dirt from the surface. Finally, proceed with thorough rinsing at high pressure, helping yourself with the water jet to remove the coarsest residues of dirt. In this way, thanks to the kinetic energy of the pressure washer, you will remove the dirt that the emollient action of the pre-wash has detached from the surface.
In the summer, or if you find yourself working under the sun and at high temperatures, we suggest you wash and rinse one panel at a time.
So what is the correct procedure for a correct pre-wash?
For the lower parts and localized dirt, directly spray the diluted product 1:10 from bottom to top and rinse.
Then, dispense it in foam gun mode, always from bottom to top following these dilutions:
for winter dirt 1: 5 (1 part of product and 5 of water)
for summer dirt 1:10 (1 part of product and 10 of water)
Dispense a thick layer of foam on the vehicle and wait for it to start falling (This may take up to 5 minutes).
Finally, proceed with rinsing with a high pressure water jet starting from top to bottom.
HELPFUL TIPS TO WASH THE EXTERIOR
-
Wash the car in a shaded area and never in direct sunlight, to prevent the shampoo from drying out, which will stain.
-
If the car has been exposed to the sun or the bonnet is very hot, cool the surface with a jet of cold water.
-
It is the least dirty part and you will avoid dirtying the glove: washing will be faster.
-
In the first you will put the solution of water and shampoo, in the second only water to rinse frequently the sponge or glove: you will avoid scratching the bodywork.
-
You will not forget any part, the product will be very effective and will not dry: you will prevent stains and marks.
-
Clean the rims with a brush that can reach the most hidden points.
Can I use the product even without a foam gun?
Yes, you can use the product with the Nebula Foam hand pump.
Can I clean it without a pressure washer?
Yes, although in this instance you will not achieve the same dirt removal performance. You will, however, get the emollient action that helps soften the dirt, making it easier to remove later.
Can I apply the product directly onto the dirty surface or do I have to wet the car completely first?
Yes, you can apply the product directly onto the body without wetting it first, even when there is thick, stubborn dirt. Just make sure the surface is not hot. If it is hot, cool it first with a jet of water.
Once the product has been applied to the surface, can I work at it with a brush or sponge?
No, the product has been specially designed to remove dirt thanks to its chemical action alone, without the use of mitts, sponges or brushes.
What are the key steps before proceeding with the prewash of the car?
We always recommend that you start washing from the wheels and tyres with Wheel&Tire Cleaner and remove any rust with Iron Remover.
After the prewash, what can I use for the hand wash with the mitt?
For a maintenance wash, use the Neutral Foam Shampoo. For dark or wrapped cars, use Black&Wrap Shampoo. To add some protective, self-cleaning action, use the Ceramic Shampoo.
