What is Decon Shampoo used for?

Decon Shampoo is a concentrated car shampoo designed to deep clean paintwork, remove built-up grime and prepare surfaces for waxes and sealants. It also helps restore the water-repellent properties of existing ceramic coatings by removing surface contamination.

Can I use Decon Shampoo on a ceramic coated car?

Yes. Decon Shampoo is ideal for cleaning ceramic coated vehicles. It helps remove dirt and contamination that can reduce water beading, allowing the coating's existing hydrophobic properties to perform more effectively.

Will Decon Shampoo remove existing wax or sealant protection?

Decon Shampoo is designed for deep cleaning and paintwork preparation. Stronger concentrations may reduce existing wax or sealant protection, making it particularly useful before applying a fresh layer. Always use the recommended dilution for your cleaning requirements.

How much Decon Shampoo should I use?

For regular maintenance washing, add 30ml of Decon Shampoo to 15L of clean water. For a deeper clean or to prepare paintwork for wax or sealant application, increase the amount to 50ml per 15L of water.

Can Decon Shampoo restore water beading on ceramic coatings?

Yes. Over time, dirt, road film and other contamination can build up on ceramic coatings and reduce their hydrophobic performance. Decon Shampoo helps remove this build-up, potentially restoring water beading without needing to reapply the coating.

What's the difference between Decon Shampoo and regular car shampoo?

Regular car shampoos are generally designed for routine maintenance washing, while Decon Shampoo provides a stronger cleaning action to tackle built-up grime and surface contamination. It's particularly useful before applying paint protection or refreshing the performance of existing coatings.

Do I need to use Decon Shampoo every time I wash my car?

Not necessarily. Decon Shampoo can be used for maintenance washes at the recommended 30ml dilution, but it's particularly useful when your vehicle needs a deeper clean or before applying fresh wax or sealant protection.

Do I need to apply wax or sealant after using Decon Shampoo?

If you're using Decon Shampoo to prepare your paintwork for fresh protection, we recommend following up with a suitable wax or sealant. However, if you're using it to clean an existing ceramic coating, additional protection may not be necessary if the coating is still performing effectively.
