After learning about the different Koch Chemie products, you might wonder what actually makes a great car detailing product. Well, here are some essential factors to consider when looking for products that will give your vehicle a stunning shine and impeccable finish.
Koch Chemie’s Active Foam is a powerful pre-wash product that can be diluted based on the level of contamination. For most applications, it’s typically diluted at a 1:5 to 1:10 ratio, depending on how heavily soiled the vehicle is.
If the vehicle has significant dirt or grime buildup, using a 1:5 ratio will provide a thicker foam with stronger cleaning power.
For lighter dirt, the 1:10 ratio will be sufficient. If using a foam lance or foam cannon, adjust the dilution to achieve the desired foam consistency and coverage.
When searching for car detailing products, it’s just as important to know what to avoid as it is to know what to look for. Steering clear of the wrong products can save you time, money, and frustration, ensuring your detailing efforts yield the best results. Here are some common pitfalls to watch out for:
