• Model: Koc000167
• Type: Acidic reactivation shampoo for Ceramic Coating

• Application: Reactivation and cleaning of Ceramic Coatings

Koch Chemie RS Reactivation Shampoo is an acidic, heavily foaming shampoo developed to reactivate and deep-clean Ceramic Coating on painted surfaces. The product dissolves hydrophilic contaminants such as dust, limescale deposits and road salt that gradually degrade the Coating's water- and dirt-repelling properties.

The acidic pH value – approx. 3.0 at the recommended dilution – helps to loosen and remove embedded contaminants without damaging the Ceramic Coating. After treatment, the Coating regains its original hydrophobic effect and dirt-shedding capability.

What is RS Reactivation Shampoo and why choose it?

RS Reactivation Shampoo from Koch Chemie is a specialist shampoo for vehicles with an active Ceramic Coating or Sealant. Conventional alkaline shampoos can over time reduce the effectiveness of a Coating, whereas the acidic RS Reactivation Shampoo instead activates and restores the surface's hydrophobic properties with every wash.

The product is developed for professional use in detailing studios and reconditioning workshops, but is equally suited to detailing enthusiasts who wish to maintain their Ceramic Coating correctly. Thanks to its high dilution ratio – 1:200 – one litre of shampoo delivers an economical and cost-effective result.

Where is this product suitable?

• Vehicles with an active Ceramic Coating that require regular reactivation
• Cars exposed to hard water, road salt and fine dust
• Professional car wash and reconditioning facilities with a foam cannon
• Detailing studios offering maintenance packages for Ceramic Coatings
• Hobby users with ceramically treated vehicles

Technical Specifications

Suitable for: Detailing studios, reconditioning workshops, car care businesses and detailing enthusiasts who regularly maintain a Ceramic Coating or Sealant on their vehicles.

Industries: Detailing, vehicle care, reconditioning, professional car washing.

For complementary pre-washing, an alkaline pre-wash product is recommended in combination with a pressure washer before using RS Reactivation Shampoo. See also more products for Ceramic Coating maintenance in our range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does Koch Chemie RS Reactivation Shampoo work with all types of Ceramic Coating?

Yes, Koch Chemie RS Reactivation Shampoo is developed to work with Ceramic Coatings in general. The product removes hydrophilic contaminants such as dust, limescale deposits and road salt that degrade the Coating's hydrophobic effect, and helps to restore the Ceramic Coating's original properties. For heavier soiling, a pre-wash with an alkaline pre-wash product and a pressure washer is recommended before shampooing.

What dilution ratio and pH value does Koch Chemie RS Reactivation Shampoo have?

Koch Chemie RS Reactivation Shampoo is diluted at a ratio of 1:200, which corresponds to 50 ml of shampoo per 10 L of water. At this dilution, a pH value of approx. 3.0 is achieved, which is sufficiently acidic to loosen embedded contaminants without damaging the Ceramic Coating. When used with a foam cannon, the pre-dilution should be adjusted according to the cannon's settings.

What distinguishes Koch Chemie RS Reactivation Shampoo from a conventional car shampoo?

Unlike conventional neutral or alkaline car shampoos, Koch Chemie RS Reactivation Shampoo has an acidic pH value (approx. 3.0 at the recommended dilution). The acidic pH value is essential for reactivating a Ceramic Coating – alkaline shampoos can gradually reduce the Coating's hydrophobic effect, whereas RS Reactivation Shampoo instead helps to restore and maintain it. The product is therefore a specialist shampoo for vehicles with an active Ceramic Coating, not a general-purpose shampoo.
