We Say
Pre-wash cleaning plays a critical role in safe vehicle washing. The more contamination that can be removed before physical contact with the paintwork, the lower the risk of introducing swirl marks during the wash process.
ValetPRO Citrus Pre Wash is designed specifically for this stage. The formula uses citrus-based cleaning agents combined with surfactants to break down traffic film, oily road grime and general contamination before the main wash begins.
Citrus cleaners work particularly well on the types of contamination commonly found on lower panels and front ends of vehicles, where oily residues and road film tend to accumulate.
Another advantage of Citrus Pre Wash is dilution flexibility. The product can be adjusted depending on the level of contamination, making it suitable for everything from routine maintenance washes through to heavier winter cleaning.
For us, a good citrus pre wash is one of the most useful products in the wash process. Used correctly it significantly reduces the amount of dirt left on the paintwork before you even touch the vehicle.
