Koch Chemie Ultra Foam – the new generation of effective Snow Foam

Koch Chemie Ultra Foam (Uf) is the new, highly concentrated snow foam from Koch Chemie for those who want the perfect combination of powerful cleaning, luxurious foam, and gentle maintenance washing.

With a pH value of 8.5, Ultra Foam is slightly alkaline and hits a very interesting sweet spot: It provides more cleaning power than a traditional pH-neutral snow foam, but without being as aggressive as stronger alkaline pre-washes.

In short:

More cleaning – without necessarily reaching for the strongest chemicals in the cabinet.

Why is Koch Chemie Ultra Foam so interesting?

Pre-washing is not just about covering the car in nice, thick foam.

The goal is to dissolve and remove as much dirt as possible before you touch the paint with a wash mitt.

The less dirt remaining when you begin the contact wash, the less grit you have to physically drag across the paintwork.

And this is where Ultra Foam really shines.

The high concentration of active cleaning ingredients helps loosen traffic film, general road grime, dust, and oily dirt, allowing a large portion to be rinsed away with a pressure washer before the manual wash.

Slightly alkaline pH 8.5 – the golden middle ground

One of the most interesting things about Ultra Foam is its pH value of 8.5.

Koch Chemie has thus positioned the product between the very mild, pH-neutral products and the more aggressive alkaline pre-washes.

This makes Ultra Foam particularly interesting for ongoing maintenance washes, where you want the car to get thoroughly clean, but where you do not necessarily need the most powerful alkaline chemistry every single time.

Have you previously felt that a pH-neutral snow foam lacked a bit of cleaning power?

Then Ultra Foam is a very exciting next step.

Dense and luxurious foam with good dwell time

The name Ultra Foam is no coincidence.

The product is developed to create a dense layer of foam that adheres to the car's surfaces, giving the cleaning chemistry time to work.

But remember:

The thickest foam is not necessarily the best foam.

The purpose is not to make the car look like a snowman. What is important is that the product is distributed correctly, stays on the surface long enough to loosen the dirt, and can then be rinsed off thoroughly.

It is the combination of foam, dwell time, and cleaning ability that makes the difference.

Perfect as the first step in a gentle car wash

Ultra Foam is ideal as a pre-wash before a traditional contact wash.

Apply the product with your foam lance, let the chemicals work, and then rinse the car thoroughly with a pressure washer.

After this, you have removed a large portion of the loose dirt before the wash mitt even touches the paint.

This is exactly how we like to wash a car:

Remove as much dirt as possible – before you touch the paint.

Can also be used for hand washing

Ultra Foam is not limited to the foam lance.

The product can also be used diluted in a wash bucket, which makes it a surprisingly versatile product.

For hand washing, Ultra Foam can be diluted up to 1:300, meaning the concentrated formula also makes the product very economical to use.

Suitable for cars with paint protection

The moderate alkalinity makes Ultra Foam particularly interesting for maintenance washing of cars where you want good cleaning without constantly exposing the surface to very harsh alkaline chemistry.

This makes it interesting for, among others, cars with ceramic coatings and durable synthetic paint sealants.

If the car has a more delicate or older natural wax protection, we generally recommend a milder pH-neutral shampoo/snow foam for regular washing.

How to use Koch Chemie Ultra Foam

With a foam lance:

Mix the product according to the desired cleaning effect and your equipment's dilution settings. As a good starting point for a standard foam lance, you can work with approx. 3% product.
If you do not know the actual PIR (product impact ratio) of your setup, start with 100 ml of product to 900 ml of water in the foam lance.

Distribute the foam evenly over the car and let the product work.

Maximum dwell time: approx. 5 minutes.

Then rinse the car very thoroughly with a pressure washer.

For hand washing:

Ultra Foam can be diluted up to 1:300 in the wash bucket.

Important

Use the product on a cool surface and preferably in the shade.

The product must not dry on the surface.

If the car is extremely dirty, it is better to repeat the treatment than to exceed the recommended dwell time.
