Troubleshooting

Shampoo not creating sufficient suds.

Ensure you are using the recommended dilution ratio (50ml per bucket) and that the water is warm. Shake the bottle well before dispensing.

Streaks left on the paintwork after washing.

This may occur if the car was washed in direct sunlight or on a hot surface. Ensure you follow the 'Do not use' guidelines. Also, ensure thorough rinsing and drying with a clean towel.
