Car wash chemicals are the consumables used through the wash process, from the pre-wash that loosens road film before contact to the interior and finishing products applied once the vehicle has been rinsed. Kränzle South Africa supplies two ranges - the Kränzle-branded range, sourced locally in South Africa, and the imported Nerta Car and Truck Care range. Both are supplied as concentrates: the Kränzle-branded products in 5 litre and 25 litre, and the Nerta products in 1 litre, 5 litre and 20 litre.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between pre-wash and car shampoo?

Pre-wash is an alkaline degreaser - Kränzle Pre-Wash runs pH 12 - that loosens road film before contact, so less grit is dragged across the paint. Shampoo is pH-balanced and does the wash itself. Using shampoo alone on a heavily soiled vehicle means scrubbing dirt that could have been rinsed off first.

How far does a 25 litre drum go?

Kränzle Foam-X is specified at a dilution of 1:50, so 25 litres of concentrate makes approximately 1,250 litres of wash solution. Because products are supplied at different concentrations, the dilution ratio rather than the container size determines how far a drum goes.

What does touchless washing need?

An alkaline pre-wash chemical - Kränzle Pre-Wash or Nerta Active Diamond Foam - a foam cannon or lance to apply it, and a high pressure cleaner to rinse. Applied to a dry vehicle, left to activate for one to two minutes, then rinsed working within about 30 cm of the surface.

Are these safe on vehicle paint?

Kränzle Foam-X and Kränzle Wash & Wax are pH-balanced for regular vehicle washing. Kränzle Pre-Wash and Kränzle Xtreme Degreaser are alkaline products for heavy soiling and workshop use - dilute to the ratio on the label, do not let them dry on a panel, and test an unfamiliar surface first. The current safety data sheet should be obtained and followed before using any of the concentrated acid, alkaline or solvent products.

Do you supply in bulk?

Yes. The Kränzle-branded range is supplied in 5 litre and 25 litre, the 25 litre in a drum. The Nerta range is supplied in 1 litre, 5 litre and 20 litre. Both ranges are supplied direct rather than through the dealer network.

Where are the chemicals supplied from?

From our premises at Brackengate Business Park, Brackenfell, Cape Town. Unlike the machines, neither chemical range is sold through the dealer network, so both are supplied direct, and Western Cape customers are supplied and supported from Brackenfell.

The machines used to apply and rinse these products are covered under car wash machines, the valet machines and dryers used with them under car detailing equipment, and the full range under car wash equipment.
