It's meguiars gold class soap. And as the above said it ain't no joke. I always keep two half gallon jugs of it

[@aredd92]

I use Active Foam for every wash on my vehicles as it makes the physical wash process easier and reduces the likelihood for marring. Not really concerned about it diminishing coatings because its so easy nowadays to regularly apply protection, especially with "spray and rinse" ceramics.

[@rianime9371]

Most informative video i've seen in a while, everyone else is not very good at this.

[@Franko.Details]

gentle snow foam for the front, blackout for the rear! 🐿️💨

[@yothinix]

Love the narrative super entertain and so informative haha, looking forward for video like ghis in the future!

[@robertorlando1484]

Been using Active Foam as a pre-wash and rising it off pretty much bi-weekly. Will have to stop that. Car is coated with Adams Advance Graphene Spray.

[@jayhoughton558]

Any good ceramic coating should easily stand up to Active foam being used regularly. It is only a 9.5ph. Which is the same as Frostbite. P&S says it’s perfectly fine to use it on weekly washes. Half the time a bug remover is needed too weekly (at least it is for me) and that is usually way higher PH. Superfoam however is much stronger. That one I would reserve to use less often.

[@KiranPatel-fk1pg]

As Jay said, active foam is fine, if you have close to neutral tap water, the product will be very close to neutral once diluted 100:1. I would much rather use a stronger foam which will very slightly speed up the degradation of coatings rather than not use a strong foam and grind dirt into my paint all while preserving an easily replaced coating. Preserving your coating or preserving your clear coat... that's the main question. Also the sun is probably going to more aggressive on your coating than a heavily diluted alkaline snow foam, especially a mild one like AF.

[@jamesjowett35]

I use Active Foam weekly on my coated car too…I have the Ammo Reflex Pro coating

[@davidboyce6427]

This was so good I had to watch twice and I took notes with pen and pad in hand fr quick referencing into categories 👀👍. Lev taking us to school 👌 on soaps and surfactant cleaners👀

Thanks bro!

[@tenbob1973]

Informative AND funny, something lacking in the majority of detailing vids I watch. Loved those analogies 😂

[@jeffcornelison888]

Great video!

[@markgeesey]

I don’t see Frostbite in your mix of different car wash soaps ! Where would you place that one on the PH scale and when is it best to use it in a foam cannon ? Please advise.

[@Irish_DEMON]

Me who never wears gloves 😅 outside of ceramic coating.

[@ankitparashar7]

Very well explained!

[@DetailEnthusiast007]

Great explanation, thank you

No Frostbite?

Thank you! Thank you! I gained a lot of insight from this one!! Thanks! More like this….please. Sign “once a Chemical Guy detailer”

[@theragcompany]

Glad to hear you got some good info from the video! Thanks for watching!

[@qualitytouch]

so where would FrostBite be?

[@sebastianmizzell7541]

Frostbite is a Ph of 9.8… so it would be on the left side with As. It will strip a wax or sealant, but not a coating.

[@DR-sq3mk]

Is a high alkaline shampoo bad for car paint, door seal strips, clear coat, etc?

[@dtna]

Thank you. Very informative video!

[@theragcompany]

Glad it was helpful!

[@davidboyce6427]

Levi you like several other Detailers I truly respect because you have no Ego when it comes to a through and honest explanation on how to’s and the why products work.👌. All I can say is you represent the Detailing Industry with honor. I salute your contributions 🫡 I’m not just blowing smoke; I appreciate you👀👌🫡

[@ian300whp]

If you wash a car with either the high acid or alkaline soap, should you wash again with a neutral soap after to neutralize it?

[@MasterOfShine]

Technically yes.

[@adrianr514]

Not understanding why everyone is commenting “insert brand here” can also do it. Yes many brands have comparable products. They’re only showing brands they carry. That’s why you don’t see CarPro, Gyeon or Labo or any other brand on the table.

[@MasterOfShine]

Correct!

[@piggietruckerjones7545]

What happens if you use active foam every week. I Have been doing that. Then I hit it with the cleanmaker!

[@KiranPatel-fk1pg]

If you have a good coating AF will do little to no harm and will reduce dirt during the contact wash.

[@kathrynhowlett3296]

Are any of these neutral car soaps fragrance free?

[@MasterOfShine]

AutoShampoo by KCX

[@kathrynhowlett3296]

Aweso.e! Thank you.

[@kathrynhowlett3296]

Does anyone know of any fragrance free rinseless washes /no rinse washes? I would *love* to find one. Have looked high and low, and reached out to brands... no luck so far.

[@skyb0yTube]

Regarding products similar with Kock Chemie RS, CarPro has Descale.

[@MasterOfShine]

Correct, but we don’t sell CarPro.

[@photog1529]

My only water source is well water which is very alkaline in my situation. Is there a particular soap you'd recommend for this situation?

[@MasterOfShine]

Something in the neutral or more acidic range

[@print493]

1:09 Carpro descale?

[@adrianr514]

Descale is a pH of 6 and by the time you dilute it I sits at 6.5 at 1:10 or 7 at 1:100.

[@tds4018]

There's is Labocosmetica Purfica that is a ph 2 shampoo

[@MasterOfShine]

Correct, but we don’t sell it!

[@sk8ordie4691]

Thought Stjarnagloss Sno was neutral ?

[@Meirion658]

So did I It was sold to me a PH neutral snow foam ??

[@MasterOfShine]

Anything from 5-8.5 is deemed neutral. SNO is technically neutral.

[@matthewsspecializeddetaili610]

No Oberk APS? Hopefully next time ❤ Great video!

[@theragcompany]

These are primarily the soaps that we carry in stock :)

[@RayNLA]

No matter what KC says…RS is a super strip wash! Probably the strongest product on the market. I predict that they will rebrand it. I would only use it before polishing.

[@sk8ordie4691]

Okay but are we getting that 1 liter of Koch AutoShampoo ??? Have heard it’s the same as Active foam just without that great scent.

[@marc-anthonysimonetta3694]

less foaming action, ive had both AF is better

[@AJ56]

Carpro Descale can also be used in a foam cannon..

[@muskcoder6367]

I've never used soap on any car, I used a few buckets of warm water to wash, rinse and use a leaf blower to clear most of the water, then microfiber towels to finish drying. I use Beadmaker to finish.

Many soaps vary when it comes to dilution ratio so you’ll have to follow the instructions on the bottle for that

[@sorin0311]

No hate, but are you serious when you say that AF should be used every 4 months? Lets imagine we have a protected car with a wax /sealant and we live in a harsh winter , use Vb, SF or AF make 300 miles and our car look like crap. Then what...we use GSF , just because yesterday we had use AF? Cmon you can't be serius with that. Other , Kcx are great products , but real life and how to use them as best is way diffetent than paper stories. Cheers!
