FAQs — Chemicals
What kinds of chemicals are available in the Chemicals category?
The Chemicals category covers essential products for cleaning and care, including cleaning & prep chemicals (like presoaks, detergents, and surface cleaners), drying agents & protectants that help vehicles dry faster and protect finishes, and specialty chemicals for targeted tasks.
What are cleaning & prep chemicals used for?
Cleaning & prep chemicals are formulated to break down road grime, grease, bugs, and other contaminants from the vehicle surface before wash or detailing steps. These products help ensure a more thorough and effective wash.
How do drying agents and protectants improve the car wash results?
Drying agents reduce water surface tension so water beads run off quickly, preventing water spots and improving drying efficiency. Protectants leave a thin layer that helps repel contaminants, adds shine, and can extend surface protection.
What are specialty chemicals, and when should I use them?
Specialty chemicals include products for specific cleaning challenges such as bug removers, wheel cleaners, glass cleaners, or under-carriage treatments. These are used when standard cleaning and drying products aren’t enough for particular surfaces or soils.
How should I choose the right chemical for my car wash needs?
Start by determining your goal: remove heavy soil and grime (choose presoaks and detergents), enhance shine and protection (pick protectants and drying agents), or tackle specific issues (use specialty chemicals). Reviewing product descriptions and application instructions on the site will help you match chemicals to your wash type and vehicle surfaces.
