Koch Chemie Gentle Snow Foam is an active snow foam pre-wash with a neutral pH and dense foam production, developed for professional car care. The product can be used as a Snow Foam for pre-washing with a foam lance or pressure washer, as well as a shampoo for manual hand washing.

The thick, uniform layer of foam clings to the surface for an extended period, providing effective soaking that lifts dirt without attacking the paintwork. The neutral pH means that Gentle Snow Foam is safe to use on paint protected with wax or Sealant.

For more stubborn soiling, such as insect residue, Gentle Snow Foam can be combined with Koch Chemie Green Star (APC) for enhanced cleaning performance.

What is Gentle Snow Foam and why choose it?

Gentle Snow Foam is a pH-neutral snow foam pre-wash that combines dense foam production with gentle treatment of painted surfaces. Unlike alkaline pre-wash products, the neutral formula preserves the protection provided by wax, Coating, and Sealant – a critical requirement in professional detailing environments.

The product is versatile in its application: it performs equally well in a manual foam sprayer or in a pressure washer fitted with a foam cannon, and can also be used as an effective hand-wash shampoo. The distinctive cherry scent is a well-known characteristic of the Koch Chemie GSF range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does Koch Chemie Gentle Snow Foam work on paint treated with Ceramic Coating?

Yes. Koch Chemie Gentle Snow Foam has a neutral pH value, which means it does not break down or degrade the protection provided by Ceramic Coating, wax, or Sealant. The product has been developed specifically to be safe for use on protected painted surfaces, making it a standard choice in professional detailing environments.

What dilution is recommended for Koch Chemie Gentle Snow Foam?

Koch Chemie Gentle Snow Foam is diluted differently depending on the application. For Snow Foam pre-washing with a foam cannon or foam lance, use approximately 20 ml per 1 litre of water. For manual hand washing, use 50 ml per 10 litres of water. When enhanced cleaning is required against insect residue or stubborn soiling, 10–30 ml of Koch Chemie Green Star can be added to the prepared Snow Foam solution. Always follow the current mixing instructions for best results.

What sets Koch Chemie Gentle Snow Foam apart from other pre-wash products on the market?

Many pre-wash products are alkaline, which provides good soil removal but risks breaking down wax and Coating protection. Koch Chemie Gentle Snow Foam combines dense foam production with a neutral pH, ensuring that paint protection is preserved. The product is also versatile – it works as a Snow Foam in a pressure washer, in a manual foam sprayer, and as a hand-wash shampoo.
