Complete Autoglym Professional Range: Ultimate Vehicle Cleaning Guide

Introduction

Professional vehicle cleaning requires more than just a pressure washer and water. Whether you're running a car wash, valeting service, or fleet maintenance operation, using the right cleaning products makes all the difference in efficiency, results, and customer satisfaction. At RealKleen, we stock the complete Autoglym professional range and AR Blue Clean pressure washers to help you deliver showroom-quality results every time. This comprehensive guide covers our entire Autoglym professional cleaning chemicals range.

Pre-Wash Stage: Snow Foam

The pre-wash stage is crucial for loosening dirt before contact washing. Autoglym Polar Blast 2.5L is a premium snow foam pre-wash that clings to vertical surfaces, breaking down traffic film and road grime. This thick foam dwell time means less scrubbing and safer cleaning for delicate paintwork.

Traffic Film Removers: Your First Line of Attack

Traffic film remover (TFR) is essential for breaking down road grime, oil, and dirt before the main wash. Autoglym offers two professional-grade options:

For Standard Cleaning

The Autoglym Advanced TFR 25L is a high-foam cleaner that's perfect for regular vehicle washing. Its concentrated formula means excellent value, and the high-foam action helps lift dirt away from paintwork safely.

For Heavy-Duty Applications

When dealing with heavily soiled vehicles, construction equipment, or commercial fleets, the Autoglym Heavy Duty TFR 25L is your solution. This super-strength detergent cuts through the toughest grime while remaining safe for vehicle finishes.

Specialist Wheel Cleaning

Wheels require special attention. The Autoglym Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner 25L is an acid-free formula that's safe for all wheel types, including alloys, chrome, and painted finishes. It's powerful enough for brake dust and road grime but won't damage delicate finishes.

The Main Wash

For the primary wash stage, Autoglym Brushwash 25L is a concentrated vehicle wash designed specifically for professional use. It's formulated to work effectively in brush systems and pressure washers, providing excellent lubrication to prevent scratching.

Specialist Cleaning Solutions

Tar and Adhesive Removal

For stubborn contaminants like tar spots, tree sap, and adhesive residue, Autoglym Tar & Adhesive Remover 5L is a professional solvent that safely dissolves these contaminants without damaging paintwork.

Glass Cleaning

Crystal-clear windows are essential for a professional finish. Autoglym Window Clean 5L is a professional glass cleaner that leaves no streaks or smears, perfect for high-volume operations.

Protection and Finishing

Rinse Aid and Gloss Enhancement

The Autoglym Autogloss Rinse 25L is a drying aid and gloss enhancer that speeds up the drying process while leaving a brilliant shine. It reduces water spotting and makes the final buff much easier.

Paint Sealant Protection

Autoglym Polar Seal 1L is a paint sealant protection that can be applied through a pressure washer or foam lance. It provides long-lasting hydrophobic protection that makes future cleaning easier.

Hydrophobic Coating

Add premium value with Autoglym Coat It 25L, a hydrophobic coating that provides long-lasting protection and impressive water beading. This allows you to offer protective coating services that customers will pay extra for.

Wax Polish

For traditional deep gloss protection, Autoglym Radiant Wax Polish 5L delivers a deep, warm shine with excellent durability. Perfect for premium detailing services.

Quick Detailing

For final touches or express services, Autoglym Fast Shine & Lube 5L is perfect. This quick detailer adds instant shine and can be used as a lubricant for clay bar work.

Exterior Trim and Tyres

Tyre Dressing

Autoglym Rubber Plus 20L is a professional tyre dressing and trim product that provides a rich, long-lasting finish. The 20L size is perfect for high-volume operations.

Tyre and Trim Restoration

Autoglym Black Dye 450ml is a tyre and trim restorer that brings back the deep black finish to faded plastics and rubber, showing attention to detail that customers appreciate.

Plastic and Trim Conditioning

Autoglym Plastic & Trim Conditioner 1L provides UV protection while restoring colour and shine to exterior plastics and trim. Essential for preventing fading and maintaining that new look.

Interior Detailing

Multi-Purpose Interior Cleaner

The Autoglym Interior Cleaner 5L is safe for all interior surfaces including plastics, vinyl, leather, and fabric. One product for all interior cleaning needs means less inventory and faster work.

Odour Elimination

Nothing ruins a great valet job like lingering odours. Autoglym Autofresh 1L is a professional car interior deodoriser that eliminates odours rather than just masking them.

Specialized Applications

Aluminium Restoration

For commercial vehicles, trailers, and specialist vehicles with aluminium components, our Aluminium Cleaner 25L professional brightener restores shine and removes oxidation.

Essential Equipment for Professional Valeting

Quality products need quality equipment. Our automotive valeting collection includes everything you need for professional vehicle cleaning operations.

Pressure Washers

Pair your Autoglym products with reliable AR Blue Clean pressure washers featuring high-quality pumps designed for professional use.

Extending Lances for High-Reach Work

For cleaning tall vehicles, lorries, and hard-to-reach areas:

• BE 18' Extending Lance - Perfect for vans, motorhomes, and commercial vehicles
• BE 24' Extending Lance - Essential for HGVs, buses, and building cleaning

These extending lances eliminate the need for ladders in many situations, improving both safety and efficiency.
