Safe Wash Routine
Clean without undoing your hard work
Most of the damage to a car's finish happens during washing - wrong products, rough cloths and dragged grit are the main culprits. GWash and the Citrus APC lift dirt chemically before the mitt ever touches the paint, and the super-soft microfibre keeps contact marks to a minimum.
Why This Kit
Four tools, one complete wash routine
Every item chosen to keep paint safe and protection intact.
-
Coating-Safe Chemistry
GWash's pH-neutral formula won't break down ceramic coatings, waxes or sealants during your regular wash.
-
Citrus Pre-Wash Power
The 500ml Citrus APC cuts heavy grime and fallout before the mitt touches paint, reducing scratch risk.
-
Swirl-Minimising Microfibre
The WM2 mitt's super-soft fibres trap dirt particles away from the surface as you wash.
-
Streak-Free Finish
The MF4 Diamond Sandwich Drying Towel pulls water off cleanly, leaving paint dry and ready to inspect.
Kit vs. Generic Alternatives
What separates a proper wash kit from a shelf-filler?
A budget wash kit often bundles a harsh shampoo and a cheap chamois. The Essential Wash Kit is built around chemistry and microfibre quality that protect the paint rather than just move dirt around.

Questions
Frequently asked
Is GWash safe to use over a ceramic coating?
Yes. GWash is pH-neutral and specifically formulated not to degrade ceramic coatings, waxes or paint sealants. You can use it as your regular maintenance shampoo without worrying about stripping your protection layer.
What surfaces can the Citrus All Purpose Cleaner be used on?
The Citrus APC is a versatile pre-wash and general-purpose cleaner suited to painted bodywork, wheels, arches, rubber trim and glass. Always rinse thoroughly after use. For sensitive or freshly coated surfaces, dilute appropriately before applying.
How should I use the Citrus APC as part of my wash routine?
Apply the Citrus APC as a pre-wash or targeted decon step before you introduce the wash mitt to the paint. Spray it onto dirty panels, wheels or arches, allow it to dwell briefly to loosen grime and fallout, then rinse off before moving to the shampoo wash stage.
How do I use the WM2 Wash Mitt correctly to avoid swirl marks?
Load the mitt with plenty of GWash foam and use gentle, straight-line passes rather than circular scrubbing. Keep your wash water clean - a two-bucket method (one rinse bucket, one shampoo bucket) helps prevent dirt from being dragged back across the paint. Rinse the mitt frequently.
How do I use the MF4 Diamond Sandwich Drying Towel?
Lay the MF4 flat on a wet panel and draw it across the surface with light pressure, letting the microfibre absorb the water rather than wiping aggressively. The sandwich-weave construction holds a large volume of water so you can dry a full car with minimal re-loading. Keep it clean between uses to avoid contamination.
Can I use this kit on matte or satin paint finishes?
GWash's pH-neutral formula is gentle enough for matte and satin finishes. Avoid the Citrus APC on matte clear coat unless you have confirmed it is safe for your specific finish - test on a hidden area first. The microfibre mitt and drying towel are suitable for any painted surface including matte.
How do I care for the microfibre mitt and drying towel after use?
Rinse both thoroughly after every wash to remove trapped grit and shampoo. Machine wash them separately from other laundry at a low temperature with a microfibre-safe detergent - avoid fabric softeners, which coat the fibres and reduce their ability to absorb water and trap contaminants. Tumble dry on low or air dry.
Is 250ml of GWash enough for multiple washes?
GWash is a concentrated shampoo, so a small amount goes a long way per wash. Typical dilution is a small measure per bucket of water. Exact wash count will depend on your dilution ratio and vehicle size, but 250ml is designed to cover multiple washes at normal working dilution.
