How to Choose the Best Soap and Shampoo for Your Car

13-05-2020 by WebEditor Leave a Comment

Washing your car regularly is crucial to maintaining it. If you need, any car soap or shampoo, you should check out Car Smart.

It can be difficult to choose a soap or shampoo to regularly clean your car with due to the vast array of choices out there. However, knowing what to look for can significantly ease your worries.

The following are some tips that you can use to select the best soap and shampoo for your car washing needs:

Buy pH Balanced Soap

The pH of car wash soap is something a very miniscule fraction of car owners even consider. It can make a substantial difference to the results of a car wash so more drivers should pay attention.

A balanced soap will leave your car with a neutral pH of seven while caustic soaps will leave your vehicle with an acidic surface. If you are buying car soap, ensure you check its acidity levels.

Car soaps are made using heavy chemical solvents particularly the cheaper ones. They may remove a layer of sealant that already exists on the car’s surface.

Buy Soap with Heavy Form

Foam is the often-ignored helper when using shampoo or soap to wash a car. You can actually do a lot of the cleaning with only soap foam.

Foam serves the purpose of weakening all the dirt and grime on your car’s surface. It also adds lubrication when washing for easier cloth or pad movement. With the contaminants loosened it is easy and safe to clean your car.

Therefore, you should go for soap or shampoo with a heavy foaming formula.

Avoid Waterless Soaps and Shampoos

If you have used waterless washes before, you know that they are almost completely useless. You will also find that 2 in 1 wash and wax simply don’t work and can offer at most a week of protection.

The same goes for deep cleaning products. They usually leave a bad finish on your vehicle and are often highly caustic (basic or acidic) which is bad for your car.

You will be better off with regular soap and sticking to what you know that buying waterless body washes, 2 in 1 wash & waxes and deep cleaning chemicals.

Consider the Brand

When it pertains to car soaps and shampoos, the manufacturer matters significantly. The reason is that some brands are simply redistribution companies for larger conglomerates.

Therefore, you may think that you are getting a soap from a different company but it is from the same firm. Large companies have lower prices due to economies of scale but they usually are por in quality.

You need to check the ingredients of the soap to evaluate the highest quality products. Smaller companies tend to pay more attention to detail, use better products and hence produce higher quality soaps and shampoos.

Ultimately, the key to choosing the best car wash soap or shampoo is to pay as much attention to detail as possible. Checking reviews from previous customers should also help inform your decision.
