Above 30 degrees paint temperature the cleaner flashes off before the dwell time is up — leaving dull streaks that only come off with polish. Before you start, move the vehicle into the shade or rinse it down with cold water first. In full summer sun, reach for the milder Pre-Foam efficient instead, which is far more forgiving with its 1-minute maximum dwell time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e1:30 for insects. 1:300 for high pressure.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDilution depends on how dirty the vehicle is and how you apply it. 1:30 to 1:50 for the pre-wash, 1:3 to 1:10 for heavily soiled wheels, 1:300 for self-service high-pressure units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the touchless pre-wash with a foam lance you work at 1:30 to 1:50. One litre of concentrate at 1:50 gives you 51 litres of ready-to-use solution — enough for roughly 20 to 25 cars in standard exterior care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe foam lance should run at 0.8 to 1.2 litres per minute flow so the foam consistency is right and the cleaner clings to vertical panels long enough to do its job. Apply the pre-cleaner from the bottom up onto the cold, pre-wetted vehicle — that way you avoid run marks on unevenly dried panels. After 5 minutes dwell time at most (VDA Class A), rinse off thoroughly with the pressure washer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn self-service wash bays, 1:300 is enough — that's the high-volume dilution and it cuts product use noticeably over a full year. For wheel cleaning you work at 1:3 to 1:10, sprayed straight onto the cold dry wheel, left to dwell for 1 minute at most, then rinsed. Important: don't use it on hot brake discs or warm wheels. The heat speeds up the reaction in an uncontrolled way and raises the risk of dulling on painted alloy wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor wash tunnels with conveyor lines you typically run 1:100 to 1:200. Dwell time in the tunnel is usually 30 to 60 seconds, which still keeps you safely inside the VDA-B limit of 1 minute. The higher dilution cuts foam volume at the spray arch but keeps enough cleaning power thanks to the high active-ingredient concentration. With high vehicle throughput it pays to switch to the 225 kg container — a better price per litre of concentrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor copolymer de-waxing — stripping old preservatives before a fresh sealant — 1:5 to 1:10 is the right dilution.

No snow foam replacement.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Koch Chemie Vorreiniger B is not a mild foam pre-cleaner for coating-protected vehicles. pH 13.1 is workshop level — strong, uncompromising, but sensitive in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts strength is on heavily soiled vehicles with insect, bird-dropping and road residue after a long motorway run or after winter. It also works reliably on baked-on brake dust on steel wheels and on alkali-resistant painted alloy wheels. The foam is functional — not the show foam you get from classic snow-foam products, but a working foam that clings to vertical panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow the honest read on the limits. First, the Vorreiniger B is not friendly to active ceramic coatings. Used regularly on coating-protected vehicles it breaks the coating down faster than a pH-neutral pre-wash foam does. For vehicles with an active coating, the milder Pre-Foam efficient is the better call. Second, don't use it on polished aluminium or chrome surfaces — despite the corrosion inhibitors, pH 13.1 can dull untreated light metals. The inhibitors protect anodised alloy, not bare alloy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThird: it is not paint-surface gentle in the sense of a hand-wash chemistry. If you look after your new car with the two-bucket method and a mild car shampoo, you don't need a Vorreiniger B in the garage. Its job starts where hand washing no longer cuts it — on heavily soiled vehicles, commercial fleets, utility vehicles and construction machinery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtective gear is a must, not optional. Nitrile gloves and safety glasses when mixing and applying. On skin contact, rinse straight away with plenty of water and remove residue with mild soap. Never leave the concentrate bottle open — the fumes from the alkaline cleaner irritate airways and mucous membranes on longer exposure. Close it well after use and store it frost-free and dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe material compatibility of the Vorreiniger B has clear limits. Allowed: steel, anodised aluminium, alkali-resistant painted surfaces, glass and standard automotive plastics. Not allowed: polished light metals, bare chrome surfaces, coloured anodised layers (risk of discolouration) and matt-painted surfaces without a protective film. When in doubt, test on an inconspicuous spot before the first application and watch it for 3 minutes — it costs little time and saves expensive damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/d1_koch-chemie-vorreiniger-b-vb-vorreiniger_ergebnis.jpg?v=1776199899\" alt=\"Koch-Chemie Vorreiniger B workshop-grade alkaline cleaner pH 13.1\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;display:block;margin:1.5em 0;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho the Vorreiniger B is for — from the pro to the home garage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Koch Chemie Vorreiniger B is built for pros and experienced home users with know-how in alkaline chemistry.

The 22 kg and 225 kg containers cover commercial demand. The 5 kg, 11 kg and 1 litre versions are aimed at single users, smaller workshops and experienced private buyers with their own high-pressure kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1-litre container is the right way in to test the product and the dilution on your own vehicle before moving up to larger quantities. The first time you mix it, work with a calibrated measuring jug — go by eye and most beginners land far too concentrated, which loads the material needlessly and encourages streaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want a mild, coating-friendly pre-wash foam, you're better off with the Pre-Foam efficient. If you supply express wash lines with extremely short dwell times, reach for the Pre-Wash B. If you need the strongest cleaner for baked-on oil and grease residue on engines and chassis, take the Copo Star BMP-T. The Vorreiniger B is the all-round middle of the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/koch-chemie\"\u003eKoch-Chemie range\u003c\/a\u003e — phosphate-free, double VDA-compliant, fast-separating to ÖNORM 5106 and therefore also approved for biological process-water treatment systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd that last point is the real Detailing1 insight.

That's exactly the thinking behind the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE MultiClean Alkaline\u003c\/strong\u003e: a high-alkaline pre-cleaner that loosens bug splatter, organic road film, tar particles and heavy brake-dust deposits in the pre-wash, so the contact-wash risk to your paint drops noticeably during the shampoo pass that follows.

Light soiling needs a stronger dilution; on cars back from long motorway runs or in the summer bug season, you crank the concentration up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetailing1's tip from the shop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Always lay the MultiClean Alkaline down on a dry, cool car — not in full sun and not on pre-wetted paint, since water thins out the working concentration. Let the cleaner dwell for 2–5 minutes without letting it dry on — in hot weather or direct sun, shorten the dwell time and keep the car damp. Then rinse thoroughly with the pressure washer before you go into the shampoo pass. For maximum bug removal, run the cleaner stronger across the front end (grille, bumper) and, if needed, work it briefly with a soft brush before you rinse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAlkaline car pre-cleaner — how the MultiClean Alkaline works chemically\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of the organic dirt on a car — bug splatter, pollen, bird droppings, the fatty salts off road wear, oil film — is stable in the acidic-to-neutral pH range. A high-alkaline cleaner like the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE MultiClean Alkaline\u003c\/strong\u003e shifts the chemical balance: esters and fatty compounds in organic grime are split apart by saponification under alkaline conditions, protein structures in bug residue are denatured and dissolved. The result isn't a mechanical lift-off but a chemical destabilisation of the dirt — the bond to the paint is weakened without you having to work the surface mechanically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne thing to get right: high-alkaline pre-cleaners aren't \"do-it-all\" cleaners for every situation. They're tuned for organic, alkali-soluble grime. Mineral deposits like lime spots, water spots or embedded metal rust (brake dust as iron particles) barely react to an alkaline attack — that calls for acidic specialist cleaners. The MultiClean Alkaline makes sense in a two-wash concept: alkaline pre-wash first (organic grime), then a follow-up with an iron remover or acidic cleaner (mineral deposits). Combine both steps and you clean chemically all the way, instead of just looking clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso important: alkaline pre-cleaners have to be rinsed off completely before you go into the shampoo wash — residue can react with some sealants or wax layers and knock back their bond for a while. A thorough pressure rinse after the dwell time is enough to clear the cleaner off fully. On freshly sealed cars (ceramic coating, paint sealant), only use it on genuinely heavily soiled spots and keep it out of the regular weekly wash, so you don't put unnecessary strain on the protection. For the routine wash of a sealed car, reach for a mild, pH-neutral shampoo as your standard wash product instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing a pre-wash like a pro — the application step by step\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe best way to use the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE MultiClean Alkaline\u003c\/strong\u003e starts on a dry car. Moisture on the paint thins the cleaner straight away and cuts the working concentration before it ever had a chance to act. Recommended method: fill the cleaner neat or at a low dilution ratio (1:3 to 1:10 depending on how dirty it is) into a pump sprayer, a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-foamsprayer-schaumspruher\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE FoamSprayer\u003c\/a\u003e or a foam cannon on the pressure washer, and spray it evenly across the whole car — bottom to top, so the cleaner runs down the bodywork and the lower, dirtier areas get properly wetted too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStick to the dwell time: 2–5 minutes is enough for typical road grime. Don't let it dry on — in direct sun or high temperatures, mist the car lightly in between or shorten the dwell time accordingly. After the dwell, rinse thoroughly with the pressure washer, then move into the normal shampoo wash. Alternatively, the MultiClean Alkaline can be run as a foam cleaner in the foam cannon — foam clings to the surface longer and stretches the effective dwell time with no extra effort. For really stubborn bug splatter on the front end, it pays to work a soft bug sponge or microfibre mitt over it after the pre-wash before you rinse — even that is already a lot gentler than going straight into a contact wash with no chemical pre-wash first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBug remover for pros — when the alkaline pre-cleaner really shines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MultiClean Alkaline shows its strengths above all in the summer season, when bugs turn into a real cleaning problem. Bug residue is made of proteins, acids (formic acid, acetic acid) and fatty substances — a chemically complex mix that \"bakes\" into the paint the moment it sits for more than a few hours. Those acids in particular can damage paint if bugs aren't removed promptly in hot weather. The high-alkaline formula neutralises those acids and breaks down the protein structures at the same time — which makes the pre-cleaner an effective tool against bugs that cuts the mechanical load during the wash down to a minimum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA simple rule of thumb applies: the fresher the bug residue, the less dwell time the cleaner needs. Fresh splatter dissolves almost completely within 2–3 minutes of dwell time and then rinses off touchless. With older, dried-on residue — what you see day-to-day on cars left unwashed for several days after a motorway run — a second pass or a quick mechanical follow-up with a soft bug sponge may be needed. That's not a weakness of the cleaner, it's chemical reality: proteins that have been \"baked\" by heat and UV over days need more time or mechanical help to dissolve fully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the car body, it's especially worthwhile on motorhomes, vans and commercial vehicles: thanks to their size and mileage, these often carry many times the dirt load of a normal car, and the option of a touchless pre-wash saves a lot of time and effort here. Professional detailing operations run the pre-cleaner as a fixed part of their wash routine — as the first step, before pressure or foam come in. That doesn't just lift cleaning quality, it also stretches the lifespan of the wash pads and mitts, because they meet far less coarse grime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePre-cleaners compared — MultiClean Alkaline vs. MultiStar and MultiClean Acid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SONAX PROFILINE range has three cleaners that look similar at first glance but are built for different jobs.

Both versions hold the same concentrate formula — the ideal dilution depends on the soiling level and the application method.

Professional detailers running a structured multi-step method (touchless pre-clean + foam wash + hand wash) who put paint safety first. Hobby detailers looking for an effective answer to stubborn traffic film after long runs or in bug season, without having to reach for aggressive chemistry. Owners of dark or sensitive paint, where wash marring shows up the most and the mechanical cleaning load should be kept to a minimum. And anyone who wants to dial in their wash process: pre-wash consistently and you spare the car, the wash gear, and your time in the long run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a practical workflow for your next wash: park the car in the shade, lay the MultiClean Alkaline down with a foam sprayer or foam cannon, let it dwell for 3–4 minutes, rinse thoroughly with pressure. Then apply a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-actifoam-energy-reinigungsschaum\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE ActiFoam Energy\u003c\/a\u003e as a foam wash in the second step and let it dwell, before the hand wash with mitt and pH-neutral shampoo begins. This three-stage approach (alkaline pre-wash → foam → hand wash) is the standard at professional detailing operations and makes a visible difference to surface quality over time on cars in frequent use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SONAX","offers":[{"title":"5 liters","offer_id":53622519365967,"sku":"D1-SNX-6295000","price":32.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"1000 ml \/ 1 liter","offer_id":57340506472783,"sku":"D1-SNX-6293000","price":9.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/sonax-profiline-multiclean-alkaline-vorreiniger_5-liter.png?v=1731053233"}],"url":"https:\/\/detailing1.co\/collections\/alkalische-vorreiniger.oembed","provider":"Detailing1","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
