Hey Bro, just a tip I've picked up from many professional detailers, it's better to start off the whole wash with an initial foam layer with a soap that has greater PH level in it, for example KochChemie Active Foam, or Super Foam if it's really, really dirty. So layer the vehicle with foam before you do any rinse or before hitting the vehicle with the pressure washer at all. Let the foam dwell on the vehicle for a good 3-5 minutes, depending on the soap you're using, then rinse it off. Then you can either layer the vehicle in another blanket of foam again and go in with a contact wash, or just go in for a contact wash right after washing the initial foam layer off the vehicle.
Just a tip. I'm not saying you're doing anything wrong nor doing a bad job, but I've learned that if you go to spray the vehicle with the pressure washer first hand before anything, you're driving the dirt and contaminants into the paint at such high pressure, possibly damaging your clear coat or paint in general. So using a soap with a good PH level in it, like I mentioned KochChemie Active Foam which has a 9.5 PH Level, can really help to break down and soften any dirt, grime, contaminants on the vehicle, making it much easier to fall off with the pressure washed rinse, and decreasing the possibility of damaging your paint or clear coat.
Yes all of this I know. I work for Koch-Chemie. However, this is my personal vehicle and coated. I didn’t want to use a pre cleaner for this wash. Customers cars get a pre wash but mine usually doesn’t lol.
@@MtnTownDetail Don't mind the comment. I just saw your latest video, was a great video by the way. This was an old video, I wasn't aware you were still making videos, nor aware the vehicle was coated. 🫡
Dope video! I love the graphics on the truck too. Looks awesome
Much appreciated
Way to start off the year brother! Prayers for huge success in 2022 man!
Same to you brother! Thank you
Does AF strip wax or sealants? any dillution you recomend ?
Why does this feel so sentimental😂
Lol 😂
Loved the ambient music with no other audio, that was cool 👍
is Af also good for regular pre-washes or just used for vehicles that have a lot of grime / dirt / road deposits on them? e.g., off road vehicles, highway vehicles. I'm deciding between GSF ph 7.5, Af ph 9.5, or Adam's. ty.
Super Foam is definitely the best but at a PH of 12 it will strip waxes and some sealants.
@@MtnTownDetail so Af 8ph - 9.5 ph is ok as a regular pre-wash? eg., washing 2 times x week.
@@smartdummy5751 go for it
I've been trying to find an answer to the same question. Koch chemie and most detailers say don't use it every time is diff between 7ph & 9.5 really that much.
Dayum!!! I took my TRD PRO to a local car wash today(01/02). I apply my own ceramic myself. I did my last application 2 months ago. This video is sick!! Makes me feel like a cheater for going to a car wash. I do have all of the microfiber stuff to do it myself.I often do.
Yeah, no car washes for me. Dont want their chemicals to damage my coating.
@@MtnTownDetail Yep, I was in a hurry today. Imusually use a PH balance soap with microfiber mitts, and microfiber shammies. Great video, bro.
Truck looks awesome!
Thank you!
Great stuff man! Looks fantastic!
Thanks. It wasn’t an easy time because after I had to suck all the water out of my garage before it froze lol.
@@MtnTownDetail challenges of our climates!
does anyone know if Af is safe on ceramic or graphene coatings?
Active Foam has a PH of 9.5 which a top tier ceramic coating can withstand no problem. However i wouldn’t wash with it every-time more like a use once after 2 regular maintenance washes with a PH neutral soap. No need to expose the coating to a higher than needed PH if your car isn’t too dirty. I think Active foam will eat up most spray on products like sealants with just a few washes so be cautious.
I was thinking it would probably work as a decon wash for ceramic as well. Thoughts?
Awesome 👏 looks beautiful
Can you give some feedback on your experience with active foam!
Cleaned super well on the pre wash. The smell is amazing!
Amazing video! What did you use to add the labels to the IK sprayers?
@lexgarage 👍🏼
Love your truck and set up. I have been wanting to buy this shampoo, have heard it not only works great at that PH level, but smells great. Any thoughts about Active Foam compared to Gtechniq W4 Citrus Foam? I know they are not at the same PH level, but heard that Gtechniq soap has a lot of power to disolve grime, bugs, etc. with the citrus power at that PH neutral not degrading coatings. Would like to know what you think. Thanks!
I prefer active foam
Boom! Great vid! 🧼
what's the main difference between a gentle snow foam and an active snow foam? ty
Higher alkaline ph levels
What is the diliition of AF with manial foamer IK foam pro12?
1:10 dilution so a full foam pro 12 would need 24oz of AF
Hi, I send you a message on the video you made when you installed the raptor lights on your Toyota 4Runner when you have a chance can you please read it thank you
What’s ratio are you using AF in the foam cannon?
2-3oz
That was a great video
Thanks Mike! Just wanted to keep it easy and calming. Plus it’s so hard to wash here right now with it being so cold.
@@MtnTownDetail is cold here too....40°
-3 when I washed last night
Very nice! I'm putting together a similar type video. Happy New Year!
Sweeet!!
What was ur dilution ratio ?
4oz of AF
great video but not the music for it ..I want to watch detailing not fall asleep before you foam the truck. 😆
Lol. I know right. I fell asleep editing it hahahaha
@Mountain Town Detail is this soap not supposed to foam well?
How you liking that SGS35?
Love it
@@MtnTownDetail glad to hear thank you. I never seen full reviews over it. I know it cold withstand more PSI and is bigger than the SGS28 but other than that they seem the same.
carpro lift or active foam
AF is more cost effective. Im actually starting to realize Lift isnt that great of a product.
@@JJS432 so u dont like lift better than active foam
@@galandetail That was a difficult sentence to understand but yes, AF is superior to Lift in my opinion.
First of all ,I thought it’s a review, then why is it called active foam if you’re still brushing it ? :(
Gotta get those crevices.
