Why Choose Purple Velvet?
A quality car shampoo should do more than simply produce bubbles. It should offer effective cleaning while providing enough lubrication to help reduce friction between the wash mitt and paintwork.
Purple Velvet is designed to make the contact wash stage enjoyable and effective, leaving your vehicle clean and ready for drying or further detailing.
It’s particularly useful for regular maintenance throughout the year, including removing everyday road grime associated with UK driving conditions.
How to Use – Bucket Wash
- Pre-Wash: Rinse the vehicle and use a suitable citrus pre-wash or snow foam to loosen heavy contamination.
- Prepare Your Bucket: Add Purple Velvet to a clean wash bucket containing water, following the dilution instructions on the bottle.
- Create Suds: Agitate the water using your pressure washer or hose to produce a rich shampoo solution.
- Wash from Top to Bottom: Use a clean, soft wash mitt, working one panel at a time.
- Rinse Your Mitt Regularly: Use a separate rinse bucket to minimise dirt transfer.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Remove all shampoo residue using clean water.
- Dry Safely: Finish with a plush microfibre drying towel to minimise water spotting.
Professional Tip: During winter, thoroughly pre-wash and rinse away loose road salt and grit before contact washing. Never rely on shampoo alone to remove bonded tar or iron contamination.
