Maniac Line Descale Foam Acid Shampoo is a 2 in 1 descaling acid shampoo, designed to eliminate limescale contamination that dulls the bodywork. Descale Foam Shampoo is a valid ally for eliminating mineral deposits after sandy rain or for removing stains left after a snowfall. It can also be applied to remove annoying stains caused by an incorrect car washing or drying phase.
Thanks to its formula that produces a dense foam, Descale Foam Shampoo offers high lubrication, ensuring a safe and delicate wash thanks to the Pillow Foam technique that reduces the risk of creating scratches and abrasions on the paintwork, together with the use of the microfibre glove.
The Pillow Foam technique is an advanced method that helps protect the vehicles paintwork by reducing the risk of scratches and abrasions during washing. The process begins by applying an even layer of highly lubricated foam to the surface of the car, using a foam gun or a handheld sprayer. The foam not only lifts and removes dirt, but also creates a protective barrier between the mitt and the bodywork.
If you want to further improve the lubrication when washing your car, a simple trick is to add 1 or 2 capfuls of Descale Foam Shampoo to the wash bucket. This addition will ensure a smoother action, making it easier for the mitt to pass over the surface of the vehicle, minimising friction and, consequently, the risk of scratches.
In case of particular conditions, such as after a sandy rain that leaves more stubborn residues on the bodywork, you can increase the dose to 3 capfuls. This will ensure greater ability to lift and remove the most difficult dirt, making the wash even more effective and ensuring extra protection for your cars paintwork. The car will be cleaned in a safer and more delicate way, maintaining the shine and quality of the paintwork intact.
Once the foam has been applied, proceed with the manual washing, delicately passing a microfibre glove directly over the foam. Thanks to the soft and enveloping consistency of the foam, this technique minimises direct contact between the glove and the paintwork, acting as a real cushion that prevents any accidental scratches. This method is particularly suitable for those who want to obtain a deep and safe cleaning, maintaining the integrity and shine of the bodywork without risking damaging it.
