Deturner Alkaline Active Foam Cleaner is a strongly concentrated alkaline foam (cleaning agent) that builds up a thick, stable layer on the surface to dissolve grease and stubborn dirt. The product is designed for wheels, wheel arches and other hard-wearing vehicle surfaces where powerful degreasing is needed.

The foam clings for longer on painted and untreated surfaces compared with thinner products, giving better contact time and more effective cleaning. Rinsing is streak-free and reduces the risk of water spots and drying marks after washing.

The product complements other car care work in the workshop or home garage. See more wheel cleaning products for wheels and wheel arches in our range.

What sets Deturner Alkaline Active Foam Cleaner apart?

The foam's ability to separate dirt from the surface without heavy mechanical action is its most distinctive feature. The thick foam remains on the surface throughout the dwell time, giving more even results than thinner alkaline cleaners.

The formula is strongly concentrated, meaning a small amount is enough for several dilutions. This reduces the cost per wash for workshops handling many vehicles each day.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does Deturner Alkaline Active Foam Cleaner work on painted surfaces and plastic trim?

Yes, Deturner Alkaline Active Foam Cleaner is safe to use on most vehicle surfaces, including paintwork, plastic, wheels and wheel arches. Always test the product on a small area first if the surface is untreated or known to be sensitive, as alkaline products can affect certain materials if diluted incorrectly.

How long should the foam from Deturner dwell before rinsing?

Allow Deturner Alkaline Active Foam Cleaner to dwell for 3–5 minutes before rinsing with water for the best results. On heavily soiled surfaces, additional manual washing may be needed after rinsing to remove any remaining dirt.

How does Deturner Alkaline Active Foam Cleaner differ from standard wheel cleaners?

The difference lies in the foam's consistency and adhesion: Deturner Alkaline Active Foam Cleaner forms a thick, stable foam that clings to the surface throughout the dwell time, whereas many standard wheel cleaners run off more quickly and provide shorter contact time. The strongly concentrated alkaline formula also allows the product to be diluted at several strengths (1:10–1:40) depending on the application method.
