Professional Alkaline Pre-Wash in One Step

Koch Chemie Active Foam is a professional-grade alkaline pre-wash engineered to dissolve road grime, traffic film, and insect residue in a single application. Designed for modern vehicle finishes, it safely lifts contamination from paint, glass, wheels, and trim without touching the surface, preventing the swirl marks and micro-scratches caused by conventional contact washing.

Clean, Dissolve, Rinse

Unlike traditional car shampoos, Active Foam uses a self-activating alkaline formula that breaks down oil-based contaminants, emulsifies stubborn grime, and rinses away cleanly. It removes dirt at the source rather than pushing it around with a wash mitt, making it ideal for heavily soiled, dusty, or winter-salted vehicles.

Safe on All Modern Finishes

Active Foam is coating-safe at the recommended dilution and free from harsh fillers, ensuring safe use on sealed paint, ceramic coatings, glass, and most exterior trim. It lifts contamination effectively while preserving gloss, depth, and factory finishes.

Optimised for Professional Results

The fast-acting, long-clinging foam delivers consistent results while reducing working time. Trusted by German bodyshops and OEM service centres, Active Foam brings workshop-grade performance to detailing professionals and enthusiasts seeking a truly scratch-free wash.
