I have used primus (not primus 2.0), it's a good product but Bilt Hamber touchless is better. Basically Bilt Hamber is an excellent brand. Surfex hd is one of the best APC on the market,if not the best. Great prices as well if you live in the UK, in the rest of Europe not so much.

I still love my Dark Fury though. It IS paint safe. I used it to blast off 8 years of caked on dirt and tree sap on a Ford F-150 work truck. Truck looked amazing afterward.

Great info! Safer chemicals that still clean are a win for sure. Primus smells fantastic too! I was worried with Idro since it was in full sun and it spotted like crazy for me, so glad to see you brought it inside!

Also do you strictly use the edge guard pads with your shine mate or go with other brand pads depending on correction?

If high pH (above 7) is by definition the concentration of free hydroxide ions in the water, I don't see how the addition of NaOH (sodium hydroxide) would be any more harsh on your paint than anything else at the same pH. This idea of caustic sodas is a bit overblown from what I can see. High pH is high pH and having high pH on your paint is probably whats doing the damage. The presence of the sodium is irrelevant (if you have soft water it's got a bunch of sodium in it anyways). Now these boutique shampoos might have surfactants and corrosion inhibitors in them to protect the paint and plastics against the presence of high pH but I suspect the real answer is that the pH of the water in your bucket or the foam from your foam cannon is just diluted down to a lower pH, probably around 9-10. Would love to see some evidence to the contrary but my real guess is that harsh cleaners like Dark Fury and Super Clean are being used at a higher pH than something like Primus 2.0 when actually applied to your paint.

@JamieTheCleaner

@@JamieTheCleaner Yeah, I think rather than trying to avoid caustic soda specifically, we should probably just be avoiding very high pH applications in general. Especially when we've got products with great cleaning surfactants that don't need high pH. For a high pH application I'm guessing 9-10 is the sweet spot that these alkaline soaps are going for. They're all going to use some sort of (salt)-hydroxide to get there though, its just dialing in the concentrations both in the bottle and the foam cannon.
