PRIMUS - Alkaline pH will remove all residues of organic origin, such as road dirt, oil, bugs and organic residues
PURIFICA - Acid pH will remove all residues of inorganic origin, such as limescale, water marks and acid rain residues
SEMPER - Neutral pH will remove static dirt during the mechanical action
The innovative 3pH combined system by Labocosmetica was designed to assist detailers and car enthusiast owners in a pivotal stage of car care - the washing process. This system proves invaluable whether the vehicle is already protected or not, making it an indispensable tool for achieving optimal results in automotive maintenance.
When washing a car, thorough cleaning is essential. However, in order to remove the dirt and contaminants that have built up on the bodywork, it is often necessary to use a product with a specific pH.
The 3pH combined car wash cycle of Labocosmetica acts on all types of dirt and contaminants, decontaminating car paint and removing all mineral salts, road dirt, limestone, acid rain residues and chemical contaminants that are not always visible to the human eye, which make the colour fade and lower the performance of the protection previously applied on the car.
The 3pH combined cycle by Labocosmetica uses an innovative method based on the pH of each of their products to remove dirt and contaminants in a targeted and effective way, but without corroding the previously applied protective products. They are also safe to use, since they are certified to ensure safe use even on delicate paints and surfaces.
How to use Labocosmetica 3pH Maintenance Wash System
A maintenance wash is a key step when it comes to maintaining a protective product such as ceramic coating, wax or sealant.
Thanks to the different pH of the products used, the 3ph combined car wash cycle of Labocosmetica frees the protective material on the vehicle from dirt and contamination, in fact, each pH, acts on different dirt and contamination.
STEP 1: PRIMUS - ALKALINE PH
PRIMUS - PreWash mode apply with a foam cannon, diluted 1:5 in winter and diluted 1:10 in summer.
PRIMUS - Pre-Treatment mode apply with a spray bottle diluted 1:10 in areas where more dirt accumulates, such as the lower part of the doors, the back of the lower boot, or to remove bugs marks from the front.
Dispense PRIMUS from bottom to top
Leave the on for 5 minutes until the foam dissolves, so it can perform the cleaning action
Rinse starting from the bottom upwards
STEP 2: PURIFICA - ACID PH
PURIFICA - PreWash mode apply with a foam cannon, diluted 1:10.
Pre-Treatment mode apply with a spray bottle diluted 1:10 in areas most exposed to the buildup of minerals such as the lower part of the doors and the back of the lower boot.
PURIFICA will remove limestone residues, unclog and rejuvenate the ceramic coating wax or sealant, solving the root problem, effectively yet gently dissolving and sequestering the calcium, mineral deposits, and residues of contamination from acid rain.
Dispense PURIFICA from bottom to top
Leave on for 2-4 minutes until the foam dissolves, so it can perform the cleaning action
Do not rinse off and continue to step 3
STEP 3: SEMPER - NEUTRAL PH MAINTENANCE SHAMPOO
Let's move on to the mechanical action, which is to be performed using SEMPER shampoo. SEMPER does not contain waxes or brightness enhancers. Its super lubricated formula allows it to apply smoothly during the washing phase, without leaving any streaks, and it can also be used on windows. Its lather has been developed to dissolve the dirt on the cars surface, encapsulate it and keep it in suspension, removing it safely yet gently.
SEMPER can be used diluted 1:1000; its neutral pH will not alter the decontaminating action carried out by PURIFICA applied previously, providing a double mechanical and chemical decontaminating action.

"I have been using a PH neutral foaming car wash, contact wash & finishing with a spray on rinse off protection on a 4 yr old Subaru purchased about 6 months ago. Water ran off & beaded ok but when I ran my hand over the surface after rain it always felt a little rough. I purchased the Labocosmetica 3PH Maintenance Wash some weeks back but got a chance to use it today. I was very happy with the final result. Of course it rained afterwards but the paint looks clean & also feels smooth to touch. I'm thinking I'll use the 3PH Maintenance Wash every 3-4 months & just the PH neutral Semper in between."
