What car-washing product did I use?
I wash my car myself about once a month, and since I had run out of the pre-wash I was using, I tried AutoGrooming AGD Indigo Core Pre-Wash. It is an alkaline pre-wash used before the main wash.
The package design caught my eye first. At 800ml, it felt like a generous amount for someone like me who washes their car about once a month.
On wash day, I brought the product to the car wash. It was introduced as a product that emphasizes cleaning power and material safety, and this time I sprayed on the foam myself and checked how things looked after rinsing.
What dilution ratios are given for a foam lance and compression sprayer?
I opened the product and got ready to use it. The dilution ratios introduced in the original post differed depending on the equipment and how dirty the vehicle was.
- Foam lance, normal grime: 1:15–1:20
- Foam lance, heavy grime: 1:10
- Tire browning removal: 1:5
- Compression sprayer: 1:100
I poured the pre-wash into a foam lance, attached it, and used it. The foam-lance ratio was introduced as around 1:10–1:20, but I did not separately record the exact ratio I mixed that day.
Could even a car-wash beginner apply the foam evenly?
When I sprayed it with the foam lance, it came out as dense foam. Even though I am not used to washing cars, I could coat the car evenly with foam. As I sprayed, I could faintly smell a cozy fig-and-powder fragrance.
Did the grime rinse away well with high-pressure water?
After spraying on the pre-wash, I left the foam on the car for a little while to loosen the grime.
After some time, I rinsed with high-pressure water, and the grime washed away cleanly. Once I wiped off the water with a dry towel, the car looked neat and clean, so I was happy with the cleaning power. A family member who used it with me also liked the cleaning power and the evenly produced foam.
