FX PROTECT Alkaline Pre-Wash is a concentrated pre-wash cleaner formulated to dissolve and remove heavy soiling, road grime, insects, and organic contaminants from painted surfaces, plastics, and glass before the main car wash begins. The product helps reduce the risk of scratches caused by mechanically working dirt against the paintwork.

Thanks to its alkaline formulation, the product is effective against grease, oil, and ingrained dirt. It is well suited as the first step in a structured wash protocol for professional detailers and vehicle reconditioning workshops. See more pre-wash cleaners for vehicle care in our range.

The product is supplied in a convenient 500 ml bottle and can be diluted as required depending on the level of soiling and the task at hand.

What is an Alkaline Pre-Wash and why choose it?

An alkaline pre-wash is applied to the vehicle's surfaces before the contact wash, allowing the chemistry to do the heavy lifting. The alkaline pH breaks down organic contaminants, grease, and road grime effectively without requiring mechanical agitation at this stage. The result is a cleaner surface ahead of the next wash step and a reduced risk of paint damage.

FX PROTECT Alkaline Pre-Wash is designed to fit into a professional wash protocol where each step has a clear purpose. The product helps extend the lifespan of Coating and Sealant by ensuring the paintwork is thoroughly cleaned before protective products are applied.

Is FX PROTECT Alkaline Pre-Wash suitable for use with a foam cannon?

Yes, FX PROTECT Alkaline Pre-Wash is well suited for application via a foam cannon. The product can be diluted as required depending on the level of soiling and the equipment used. Apply to a dry or damp surface, allow to dwell for a few minutes, and rinse thoroughly before beginning the contact wash.

What volume does FX PROTECT Alkaline Pre-Wash come in and how far does it go?

FX PROTECT Alkaline Pre-Wash is supplied in a 500 ml bottle.

For professional use with high wash throughput, we recommend checking whether larger pack sizes are available in our shop.
