Main types of auto body chemicals
The right choice of products will help not only wash away dirt, but also create an invisible barrier against external influences.
Car shampoos :
- For hand washing : Creates a rich foam, effectively removes dirt without harming the LFP. It is important to choose products with a neutral pH so as not to wash away protective coatings.
- For non-contact cleaning : Active foam applied under pressure and does not require mechanical action. Ideal for removing heavy dirt, but can be more aggressive on waxes and sealants.
Cleaners :
- Disc cleaners : Designed to remove brake dust and stubborn dirt that regular shampoo won't remove.
- Bitumen and resin cleaners : Effectively dissolve stuck asphalt particles, poplar buds and other sticky contaminants without damaging the paint.
- Body cleaning clay (autoclay) : Non-abrasive agent for removing embedded microparticles (metal inclusions, road dust).
Protective coatings :
- Waxes (carnauba, synthetic) : Create a hydrophobic layer, add shine and make subsequent washing easier. Protection lasts from several weeks to several months.
- Sealants and polymer coatings : Provide more durable protection than wax by creating a strong film. Service life - up to six months or more.
- Ceramic coatings (nanoceramics) : The most durable and strongest coatings. Creates a hard, hydrophobic layer that protects against scratches, ultraviolet light, and harsh chemicals. Lasts up to several years.
Polishes :
- Abrasives : Used to remove scratches and scuffs, restoring the gloss of the LFP. Requires care in application.
- Non-abrasive (protective, shine-restorer) : Add shine and mask minor defects, often containing wax or polymers.
Application tips
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions. Use high-quality microfiber towels and applicators to avoid scratches. Regular and proper body care with specialized car care products will significantly extend the life of the LFP and maintain the attractive appearance of your car.
