FX PROTECT Car Shampoo with SiO2 is a pH-neutral vehicle shampoo containing silica (SiO2) to help reinforce paint protection during the wash process. The product has been developed for professional use in car care and detailing, but is equally suited to demanding enthusiast users.
The pH-neutral formula ensures the shampoo is gentle on existing Coating and Sealant layers, meaning the protective layer on the paintwork is preserved throughout the wash. The silica helps deliver an additional gloss and a degree of hydrophobic protection to the paint surface after every wash.
The product is supplied in a practical 1-litre bottle and is suitable for use with the two-bucket hand wash method. See more FX PROTECT products for car care.
What is an SiO2 Car Shampoo and why choose it?
An SiO2 car shampoo combines the cleaning properties of a traditional car shampoo with the addition of silica (SiO2). The silica helps reinforce and maintain existing protective layers on the paintwork, such as Ceramic Coating or Sealant, whilst simultaneously delivering increased gloss after washing.
Compared to a standard car shampoo without active additives, FX PROTECT Car Shampoo with SiO2 helps extend the lifespan of paint protection between more intensive treatments. The pH-neutral formula ensures the product does not break down or damage existing Coating layers, making it a sound choice for vehicles with active protective layers.
Where is this product suitable?
- Professional detailing studios and vehicle preparation workshops
- Car care businesses with regular vehicle washing requirements
- Enthusiast users and detailing hobbyists who demand paint protection
- Vehicles with an active Ceramic Coating or Sealant that require gentle washing
- Indoor use in wash bays or outdoor use under controlled conditions

Yes, FX PROTECT Car Shampoo with SiO2 has been developed to be gentle on active protective layers such as Ceramic Coating and Sealant. The pH-neutral formula ensures that existing Coating layers are not broken down during washing, and the silica helps maintain and reinforce the hydrophobic properties of the protective layer.

FX PROTECT Car Shampoo with SiO2 is supplied in a 1-litre bottle. The product is suited to professional use in detailing studios and vehicle preparation workshops, but is equally appropriate for enthusiast users who wash their vehicles regularly using the two-bucket hand wash method.
What sets FX PROTECT Car Shampoo with SiO2 apart from a standard car shampoo?
What distinguishes FX PROTECT Car Shampoo with SiO2 from a conventional car shampoo is the addition of silica (SiO2).

A standard car shampoo without active additives offers cleaning alone, without these additional properties.
