Alchemy

Wash. Grime Citrus Pre-Wash dilutes 10:1 (water to Grime) for heavy dirt, 50:1 for medium and 100:1 for light, and can be sprayed or used through a foam lance; Alchemy says it is safe on wax and sealant. Whitewash Snow Foam is pH-neutral, at 5:1 water to foam for heavy cleaning. Dirty Harry is a pH-neutral, wax-friendly shampoo: one capful per litre of water, used on a cool panel out of direct sun. Dry with the Alchemy Dry towel, 90 x 75cm in a twisted loop pile, or wash with the microfibre wash pad.

Wheels and decontamination. Supreme Wheel Cleaner is acid-free: neat for heavy dirt or diluted 1:5 to 1:10 for light, left for one minute, then rinsed. Chemical X is a ready-to-use, pH-neutral gel that turns red as it reacts with iron fallout; apply to cool wheels and rinse within five minutes. Qube Soft Clay (100g) lifts overspray and tar for regular use, with Qube Lube as its pH-balanced lubricant.

Gloss and protection. Dark Matter and Light Matter are glazes matched to dark and light paint, hiding light blemishes by hand or machine. Supanova is a soft wax and oil blend for show gloss, Ceramic Wax is a hybrid paste wax that Alchemy rates at up to 12 months, and Duck Tail is a ceramic wet-coat spray, rated at up to four months. Suga Coat is a hydrophobic quick detailer for between washes.
