Optimum Car Wash Soap is a highly concentrated, pH-neutral shampoo that cleans effectively while remaining gentle on wax, sealant, and ceramic coating finishes. Only a small amount is needed per wash, and it generates thick foam when used in a foam cannon.

옵티멈 카 워시 솝은 고농축 pH 중성 샴푸로, 기존 왁스·실런트·세라믹 코팅을 손상시키지 않으면서 효과적으로 세정합니다. 소량으로도 충분한 세정력을 발휘하며 폼 캐논에서는 풍성한 거품을 생성합니다.
