Vehicle Hand Wash

Concentrated Foaming Hand-Wash Detergent | Vehicle Hand Wash™ 9180 Series

Concentrated foaming vehicle hand-wash detergent. Vehicle Hand Wash™ 9180 is a high-foaming, near-neutral detergent that cuts oily road film from vehicle surfaces while staying gentle on clearcoat, wax, and the hands doing the washing. It emulsifies and lifts surface oils quickly, then rinses easily and thoroughly without streaking. Its high-foaming body builds dwell time and lubricity that help carry away grit without scratching, making it well suited to low-pressure and hand application where finish safety matters.
