Recently, acid-alkaline wash systems (sometimes called "exothermic washes") have become one of the hottest topics in the detailing industry. These systems can deliver incredible cleaning power by combining acidic and alkaline chemistry, but are they really the best solution for long-term vehicle maintenance?
In this video, I break down:
✅ What acid-alkaline wash systems are ✅ Why they work so well ✅ The science behind traffic film removal ✅ The risks nobody talks about ✅ Contact washing vs chemical washing ✅ Why I believe smarter chemistry beats stronger chemistry
I'll also explain my philosophy behind developing The Super Soaper and why I believe chemistry should simplify the method—not force you into a more complicated process.
