ph neutral shampoo

    Hi all,i was thinking of buying this to check it out https://www.micksgarage.com/g/car-care-kits/products/956f3468591 but i noticed that the polar wash is,nt ph neutral,with no understanding regarding this i would really appreciate some info on this as the car needs a wash pretty soon.

    If you scroll down to FAQ on this website it states that it is not ph neutral https://navlife.com.au/product/autoglym-polar-blast-wash-seal-kit-with-foam-lance/

    If you look on the Autoglym website scroll down to FAQ on the right and Autoglym state themselves that polar wash is not ph neutral
    ..
    " Is Polar Wash pH neutral?

    No it isn’t. However it will not remove Extra Gloss Protection, Waxes or sealants; such as LifeShine. "

    Could i use polar blast first as the ph neutral pre wash then use ph neutral autoglym bodywork shampoo conditioner instead of the Polar wash which is NOT ph neutral and finish at that or would the polar seal be recommended for that extra protection ? Lastly Autoglym say that the bodywork shampoo conditioner should be applied by hand and not with a power washer but the polar wash is suitable to use with a power washer,could i use the bodywork shampoo conditioner and apply it in a power washer and then agitate the coating on the car with washmitts etc so keeping body movement to a minimum because of back issues,many thanks .....

    My head is spinning after reading your post Damon :pac:

    Forget about Polar Arse as the steps you have laid out seem complicated. Instead go for a combination of the following which are all PH Neutral:

    > CarPro Reset - Can be used as both snow foam and shampoo

    > Gtechniq W4 Foam / G-Wash

    > Bilt Hamber Auto Foam / Auto wash

    > Meguiars Hyper Wash (foam) / Shampoo Plus

    Would also add TAC System Mystic Bubble as a shampoo option. Brilliant shampoo.

    In fact, anyone who hasn't tried out some of the TAC System range, i would highly advise it.

    I only posted what I've used/use so I can rest assured about my PH neutral advice.

    A spinning heads not so much of a bad thing,keeps you on the ball ;)
    Where would i find the likes of above? Previously ive been looking on the likes of halfords website and Micks amonst a few others with pretty alright prices and being able to buy,collect and avoid any pricy delivery charges because of the weight from buying further afield.Anyone know of any other irish websites with good variety and prices ? ,thanks MC Love and clubberlang 12 will check them out too,cheers..

    Reflect are open if you want to physically pick it up in a shop. They also offer a 10% discount for members of the IDE Facebook group so don’t forget to mention that.

    Thanks lads,thought i was so close to getting the car washed but now have to start again from scratch :confused:

    Another vote for Carpro here. I'll be going back to it once my other shampoo is finished.

    Very good products.
    From their wash to the quick detailer to their ceramic collection.
