Car Wash Chemistry

For Any Car Wash

Friction

Tunnels and In-Bay Automatics

Every car wash is unique, which is why we created the Qual Chem Cleaning System³. No matter your tunnel length, number of passes, or dwell time, we can provide a custom fit solution to provide you with the results you want at the price you want to pay.

Qual Chem Cleaning System³

The Qual Chem Cleaning System³ is the foundation of what makes Qual Chem unique, providing complete control of your car wash cleaning.

High Volume Sites

We work with many of the highest volume car washes in the world to help them optimize their chemistry costs without impacting quality.

Foam Control

Too much or too little foam can lead to customer complaints. Our system puts you in complete control over your foam without impacting cleaning.

Complete Drying System

Each Qual Chem application is designed and set up with drying in mind, resulting in cars that roll out of the tunnel drier than ever before.

Friction Applications

Big Show Application
We’ll help you wow your customers by creating a high-impact big show application. By simply increasing the foaming agent, we can create as much foam as you’d like without excess waste or side effects.

Make your big show application your own by customizing it with one of our colors or fragrances.

Bug Cleaner

The value of the Qual Chem Cleaning System³ shines through in tackling your bug cleaning challenges.

During peak bug season, you can increase the level of high pH Additive used independent of foam, color, or fragrance. This allows you to tackle even the most difficult bug seasons at the most efficient cost per car.

During seasons when bugs aren’t as problematic, you can reduce your pH additive to further save on chemistry.

Drying Agent

Drying has long been a primary pain point for car wash operators.

At Qual Chem, we know that a dry car doesn’t just come from a drying agent. This is why we’ve created an entire line of chemistry focused on drying. We design every application to not only perform the needed function but also to ultimately prepare the vehicle’s surface for drying.

Lubricant Soap

While not as flashy as some other applications, a great lubricant soap is essential for successful friction car wash cleaning. By creating the perfect lubricity for your wash, your mitter and/or wrap materials will glide over the vehicle to effectively clean without damage.

Presoaks

High and low pH presoaks target different types of dirt. This is why car washers are often left frustrated when running a single presoak application. By utilizing both high and low pH presoaks, your car wash will be more effective at both cleaning and drying.

High pH Presoak

High pH presoaks target organic soils like petroleum, automotive byproducts, oil, grease, film, fats, and protein.

Low pH Presoak

Low pH presoaks target inorganic soils like rust (iron), metal oxides, scale, silica (sand/cement), silt, clay, light oils, small particles, and inorganic salts.

Protectants

Successful car washes separate themselves from their competition by providing customers with high-impact packages that leave vehicles shiny and smooth. These easy-to-see attributes have a high perceived value with customers to help you increase your average ticket.

We offer a range of premium protectants starting with the classic carnauba wax all the way to and beyond ceramic or graphene.

Tire Shine

Nothing turns more heads or completes a car wash like a high-shine tire. Our solvent-based nano fortified tire dressing delivers the highest-gloss finish, while our water-based tire shine delivers great results for operators wanting to stay away from solvent-based applications.

Triple Foam

A great triple foam is more than just added color and fragrance. We’ll help you create a custom triple foam application that acts as a polish, prepping the vehicle’s surface for your premium protectants and drying agent.

With six colors to choose from as well as many stock and seasonal fragrances, you can create a triple foam that is uniquely fit for your brand.

Wheel Cleaner

Brake dust and road grime can be difficult to clean. To meet the challenge, car washes need a powerful low pH cleaning application.

With the Qual Chem Cleaning System³, operators can create a hyper-concentrated formula that works on impact to ensure wheels leave your car wash clean. Best of all, adjustments can be made to the cleaning power without impacting the foam profile.

Touch Free

Take Your Touch Free Car Wash to the Next Level of Performance

Without friction, the power of your chemistry becomes even more important. Our specially designed TF Line is designed to meet the challenges of a touch free environment, with the full flexibility and customization of the Qual Chem Cleaning System³.

Want More Foam?

We can customize your foam profile by blending your selected foaming agent with your pH additive.

Easy to Maintain

Our highly concentrated formulas wash more cars per drum, extending the length of time between drum swaps.

Fast Acting

The highly concentrated formulas used in our TF Line are fast acting to perform under the constraints of touch free environments.

Municipality Friendly

Our commitment to creating environmentally responsible products means they are sure to gain approval by your municipality.

Self Serve

We Have Your Self Serve Chemistry Needs Covered

For self serve car washes, low maintenance is the name of the game. We keep our products highly concentrated so you aren’t constantly swapping out drums and you can use the same chemistry for your in-bay automatic washes as well as self serve locations. This reduces the number of SKUs you’ll need to order or keep on hand.

One Stop Shopping

We can provide all the chemistry you’ll need for your self serve bays.

Use the Same Products

There’s no need for additional SKUs as you can use the same products from your in-bay automatic.

Low Maintenance

Our highly concentrated formulas will save you headaches as they will wash more cars per drum.

Customizable

Provide your self serve customers with a unique experience by customizing your colors and fragrances.

Self Serve Applications

Clearcoat Protectant

Your self serve customers will love the green apple fragrance of Q ProShine. This highly active formula beads well, dries quickly and enhances the vehicle’s finish at an economical cost per application.

Foaming Brush

When customers turn on the foaming brush, they want to see lots of foam pouring out. We can optimize your foam brush using the same foaming agent used in in-bay automatics.

High Pressure Soap

No matter which option you choose—a one drum product or custom blend—we can dial in your high pressure soap to be exactly what you want it to be.

Low Pressure Presoak

Choose from our one drum solutions or create your own blend using the foaming agent and low pH additive from your in-bay automatic to create your self serve presoak.

Triple Foam

With six colors to choose from as well as many stock and seasonal fragrances, you can create a triple foam that is uniquely fit for your brand and provides a great foaming conditioner.

Wheel & Tire Cleaner

We’ll utilize the chemistry used in your other cleaning applications or environments to build a wheel and tire cleaner for your self serve bays.
