Restore your ceramic coating’s hydrophobicity and shine with the pioneer of acidic decontamination.
When ceramic coatings lose their "beading", the protection is rarely gone - it’s usually just buried. PURIFICA was the first product in the detailing industry designed specifically to "unclog" coatings by dissolving the invisible layer of limescale and mineral deposits that build up over time. While other acidic shampoos have followed, PURIFICA remains the benchmark for safety, versatility, and performance.

- Versatile Utility: Highly effective as a high-cling pre-wash foam, a traditional bucket wash, or a targeted spray treatment.
- 3pH® System Essential: The specialised acidic step in the Labocosmetica 3pH wash cycle.
The Irish Import Essential
Japanese imports are incredibly popular in Ireland, but they often arrive with heavy, sun-baked mineral deposits from sitting in transit or coastal ports. If you’ve just imported a car and the paint feels "rough" or looks dull despite a wash, PURIFICA is the essential first step to chemically strip those minerals and reveal the true condition of the Japanese paintwork.
Technical Dilution Guide
PURIFICA is highly concentrated, maintaining its acidic effectiveness even at extreme dilution ratios. Safe for: Gloss paint, Matte/Satin wraps, PPF, Glass, Plastic trim, and Chrome.
| Application | Dilution Ratio | Purpose |
| Foam Gun | 1:5 - 1:10 | Heavy mineral removal or intensive pre-wash. |
| Bucket Wash | 1:100 - 1:400 | Maintenance wash (1:400 = approx. 4 caps per 10L). |
| Sprayer (Pump/Trigger) | 1:100 - 1:200 | Localised spots or pre-treating dry surfaces. |
| Detailing Brush | 1:30 | Cleaning Emblems, wheels and door jambs |
Application Methods
Routine Maintenance (Rejuvenation Wash)
Dilute 1:400 in a bucket. Use a microfiber wash mitt to remove light mineral buildup. This instantly restores the water-beading properties and "slickness" of your existing protection.
Heavy Contamination (Sandy Rain / Snow)
Use a 1:5 to 1:10 dilution in a foam gun. Apply to the car and let it dwell (do not let it dry) to chemically dissolve mineral film. Rinse thoroughly to reveal the original shine.
Maximizing Sealant Bonding
Use as a final foam step (diluted 1:10 to 1:20) to strip away leftover surfactants from previous wash stages. This creates the perfect surface for "Wet Coats" or ceramic shampoos to bond to.
Pro Tip: For deep-etched water spots or rust bloom that PURIFICA cannot remove, we recommend Labocosmetica Energo for heavy-duty mineral decontamination.
