FAQs

Is this detergent safe for my car's ceramic coating?

Yes, KIAM Aquaspray Snow Foam Car Wash Detergent is formulated to be safe for all vehicle exterior finishes, including ceramic coatings, matte paint, and vinyl wraps.

Do I need a pressure washer to use this product?

While a pressure washer with a snow foam lance is recommended for the best foaming experience, the detergent can also be used in pump sprayers or even with a traditional bucket and wash mitt for a pre-wash soak.

What is the difference between Arctic White, Citrus Blast, and Mint Fresh?

The primary difference is the colour of the foam produced. Arctic White is a pure, uncoloured foam focused solely on cleaning. Citrus Blast produces orange foam, and Mint Fresh produces blue foam. The cleaning performance is the same across all variants.

How much product should I dilute?

A common starting point is a 1:10 to 1:20 dilution ratio (e.g., 1 part detergent to 9-19 parts water) in your snow foam bottle. Adjust this based on your foam lance and the level of dirt on your vehicle. Always refer to specific instructions for your equipment.

Can I use this detergent in hot and cold water?

Yes, the Aquaspray Snow Foam Detergent is effective in both hot and cold water conditions.

How long should I let the foam sit on my car?

Allow the foam to dwell on the surface for 3-5 minutes. It's important not to let the foam dry completely on the paintwork, especially in warm or sunny conditions.

What are the main cleaning agents used?

The product uses advanced nano-technology cleaning agents designed to penetrate and break down dirt and grime at a molecular level.

Troubleshooting

Foam is not thick or clinging well.

Ensure correct dilution ratio is used. Check if the snow foam lance is functioning correctly and has adequate water pressure. Adjust the foam/air mix on the lance if possible.

Product leaves streaks after rinsing.

Ensure the vehicle is thoroughly rinsed. Avoid washing in direct sunlight or when surfaces are hot, as this can cause premature drying. Check if the water source contains high mineral content, which may require a final rinse with de-ionised water.

Detergent is not rinsing off easily.

Confirm that the dilution was not too concentrated. Ensure adequate water pressure is used during the rinsing stage. Allow the foam to dwell for the recommended time, but do not let it dry on the surface.

Product causes irritation to skin or eyes.

While designed to be safe, avoid prolonged skin contact. Wear gloves if sensitive. In case of eye contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Discontinue use if irritation persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Dilution: For optimal foam, dilute KIAM Aquaspray Snow Foam Car Wash Detergent with water in your snow foam bottle or lance reservoir. A typical dilution ratio is 1:10 to 1:20 (e.g., 100ml of detergent to 900ml of water for a 1-litre bottle), but adjust based on desired foam thickness and soiling level. Always refer to specific product dilution recommendations if available.
  2. Application: Attach the foam lance to your pressure washer. Generously apply the foam to the entire vehicle surface, starting from the bottom and working upwards.
  3. Dwell Time: Allow the foam to dwell on the surface for 3-5 minutes. Do not let it dry on the paintwork.
  4. Rinsing: Thoroughly rinse the vehicle with clean water, again working from the bottom up.

Compatibility:

  • Vehicle Finishes: Safe for all exterior automotive finishes including gloss paint, matte paint, vinyl wraps, ceramic coatings, and PPF (Paint Protection Film).
  • Washing Equipment: Compatible with standard snow foam bottles, pump sprayers, and high-pressure washers.
  • Water Conditions: Effective in both hot and cold water.

Care:

  • Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
  • Clean the snow foam bottle and lance regularly to prevent clogging.
