Stjärnagloss Sno X 1L - Intense Cleaning Snow Foam Pre-Wash

**NEW HYPER STRENGTH** Thick, intense pre-cleaning snow foam.

We get asked a thousand times a day, "Can you mix Först and Snö?" Well now, you can - and you don't have to spend your money on two products. Combining the cleaning power of Först with the thick, long dwell time of Snö, we present Snö X.

Apply it via a professional snow foam cannon with a pressure washer capable of 130bar or more for best results. Cover your car from the bottom upwards to increase the dwell time of the product on those dirty lower areas. A little slip to the snow foam will help carry most of the dirt away. To use, simply add approximately 50ml to your snow foam cannon's 1 litre dosing bottle and top up with water. Then see the incredible cleaning effects of that thick, luxuriant foam. You probably won't use all the mixture on a single car. We reckon a litre of concentrate is good for 20-40 pre-washes.

How to use Stjarnagloss Snö X

Application: Apply Snö X at 50ml-100ml per litre of water via a professional snow foam cannon using a pressure washer with at least 130bar for best results. If using a lower-powered washer, a stronger mix may be necessary.

Coverage: Start from the bottom and work your way up to increase dwell time on the dirtiest areas.

Rinse: Allow the foam to dwell for a short while, then rinse thoroughly with water. Do not allow to dry on the panel and use with care on sensitive finishes (no dwell time, maximum rinsing). Plastic and metal trim may be affected by strong chemicals. Use regular Snö if unsure.

Mixing Instructions

1L Bottle: 50ml-100ml dose; good for creating 20+ litres of snow foam mixture, enough for 30-40 car washes.

FAQs

Q: Is it safe to use Snö X on a ceramic coating?
A: Yes. Whilst Snö X is an alkaline cleaner it can be used safely on fully cured ceramic coatings but we'd suggest keeping the dwell time low and rinsing thoroughly. Avoid using it on fresh ceramic coatings just to be safe. Remember that foams are generally weaker than liquid sprays as they are highly aerated. But never let a foam 'dry onto' the car, especially on sensitive or delicate finishes. The chemicals will be far more concentrated if the foam evaporates.

Q: How does Snö X compare to regular Snö or pH neutral snow foam?
A: Snö X offers more cleaning power than a pH neutral product like Snö because it contains strong alkalis giving the product a high pH value. This makes it more aggressive in use. For even more cleaning power, try using regular Först as it is applied as a liquid, not a foam.

Q: Can I use Snö X for regular cleaning?
A: Whilst standard Snö is always best for regular cleaning, you may want to reach for Snö X during dirtier seasons like winter. Its powerful formula makes it perfect for tackling tough jobs. However, if your car has a sensitive or delicate finish (chrome window surrounds, anodised wheel nuts etc) then avoid using the product too much - or even at all - in these areas and rinse thoroughly with minimal or no dwell time. Strong chemicals should be used as sparingly as possible to get the job done.

Q: I have noticed chalky or milky deposits on dark paint or trim after use. What is this and how can I sort them out?
A: Strong chemicals can briefly weaken softer finishes during use, especially in hot conditions where they can dry out. Never let a strong product dry out and apply it to wet panels only to help avoid this. Once a soft finish (black powder coated/refinished wheels, black plastic trim are classic examples) has been weakened, alkali salts from the product and calcium carbonate (limescale) deposits from hard water can be trapped into the surface giving a milky, cloudy or chalky appearance. Assuming these are merely deposits and not physical etching, you can remove them with a polish (like Skara in our range), waterspot remover or mild acid, or even a microabrasive 'magic' sponge. If light chemical etching has occured, Skara will help to
