UD560 pH-Neutral, Polished, Green Car Shampoo 20 L

A Washing Experience with Green Foam

UD560 adds a touch of fun to the car washing process. Its vibrant green foam spreads smoothly over your vehicle, making the cleaning process visually satisfying as well. The soft texture and rich density of the green foam deliver a stylish result with every wash. Not only does it clean your car effectively, but it also transforms the washing experience into an enjoyable and engaging activity.

Ceramic Coating-Friendly pH-Neutral Formula

Specifically formulated for ceramic-coated vehicles, UD560 safely cleans your car's protective coating with its pH-neutral formula. It gently removes light dirt without harming the paint or ceramic surface. This feature makes it a reliable and safe cleaning solution for ceramic-coated vehicle owners. The pH-balanced composition helps preserve your vehicle’s surface, ensuring long-lasting shine and protection.

Effective Cleaning for Light Dirt

UD560 efficiently removes light dirt and dust. Its soft and dense foam gently cleans your vehicle’s surface without causing any damage to the paint. For more stubborn dirt or greasy stains, it is recommended to use a plush cloth or sponge for optimal results. This approach enhances cleaning efficiency, making it easy to remove all minor stains from your vehicle's surface while preserving its pristine appearance.

How Do I Use It?

Adding the Shampoo: Add shampoo to the foam tank at a 1/60 ratio. This ratio ensures the shampoo foams at the correct consistency and provides effective cleaning.

Adding Water: After adding the shampoo, add water to the foam tank. Warm or cold water is recommended, as hot water can affect the chemical composition of the shampoo.

Mixing Shampoo and Water: Thoroughly mix the shampoo and water. Close the foam tank securely and use the tank's mixing system to ensure the mixture is homogeneous. If there is no mixing system, you can also mix it manually.

Air Pressure Check: After preparing the shampoo mixture, check the air pressure of the machine. Most foam machines operate with a specific air pressure, typically between 4-6 bar. If the pressure is too low, the foam may not be dense enough.

Application: Once the mixture is ready, apply the shampoo mixture to your vehicle using a foam gun. To ensure the foam is spread evenly across the surface, move the gun continuously and spray slowly over each section of the vehicle.

Contact Time: Allow the foam to sit on the vehicle's surface for 2-3 minutes. This time will be sufficient for the dirt to soften. However, avoid applying it under direct sunlight, as the shampoo can dry quickly in the sun. The foam drying may leave stains on the surface and reduce its cleaning effectiveness.

Brushing: Perform the cleaning process using a sponge or plush cloth. These tools help the shampoo dissolve dirt and make cleaning more effective without damaging the vehicle's paint. Soft brushes and cloths prevent surface scratches during the cleaning process.

Rinsing: After cleaning each section of the vehicle, rinse it thoroughly with plenty of water. Ensure that all the foam is completely removed. Perform the rinsing carefully to make sure no residue is left on your vehicle.

F.A.Q.

Should I Choose UD560 or UD530?

UD530 is known for its powerful cleaning capabilities and striking green foam. It effectively removes heavy dirt and provides deep cleaning performance. However, since it is not pH-neutral, it is not recommended for sensitive surfaces such as ceramic coatings. UD530 excels in handling intense grime but is unsuitable for delicate finishes.

UD560, on the other hand, is pH-neutral, making it a safe choice for ceramic-coated vehicles. Its green foam offers a gentle cleaning experience, protecting the paint without causing harm. While it is highly effective for light dirt, it may not perform as strongly as UD530 on heavy grime. However, it is the ideal solution for safe cleaning on sensitive surfaces like ceramic coatings.

Why Should I Choose pH-Neutral Shampoos for Ceramic-Coated Vehicles?

Ceramic coating is a specialized protective layer that shields your car’s paint, requiring careful maintenance to extend its lifespan. pH-neutral shampoos are formulated without acidic or alkaline properties, ensuring they don’t damage your car’s surface. This means cleaning products applied to the ceramic coating won’t degrade the protective layer or diminish its effectiveness.

Ceramic coatings enhance resistance to water, dirt, and other environmental elements, but they rely on the right cleaning products to perform optimally. pH-neutral shampoos gently remove dirt without harming the paint or coating. In contrast, acidic or alkaline cleaners can erode the ceramic layer, compromising its protective properties.

In summary, pH-neutral shampoos are the safest and most effective choice for ceramic-coated vehicles. They ensure thorough cleaning while preserving the coating’s durability, maintaining your car’s shine, and protecting the exterior surface.

Why is the Use of Sponges, Brushes, or Cloths Necessary with pH-Neutral Shampoos?

Gentle Cleaning Formula
pH-neutral shampoos are formulated with low cleaning strength, which is beneficial for delicate surfaces. However, to effectively remove dirt from the surface, mechanical action is required. Tools like sponges or brushes enhance the effectiveness of the shampoo, helping to lift dirt and debris more efficiently from the surface.

Need for Physical Friction
Unlike chemically strong solvents, pH-neutral shampoos rely on physical friction for dirt removal. Sponges, brushes, or cloths provide the necessary mechanical contact, boosting the cleaning power and ensuring that dirt is effectively dislodged and removed from the surface.

Ineffectiveness on Stubborn Dirt
While pH-neutral shampoos are effective for light dirt and dust, they may not be sufficient for stubborn grime, grease, or tar. Such contaminants require additional physical effort for removal. Sponges or brushes help break down and lift these tougher stains, ensuring a thorough and efficient cleaning process.
