Expert Notes

Parma Violet Super Foam is a scented twist on the Autobrite Direct Super Snow Foam, giving a thick, vibrant purple foam with a Parma Violet fragrance. It is pH neutral, with the safety data sheet putting the concentrate at about pH 6.5, and it is biodegradable and safe for all LSPs, so it will not degrade existing wax, sealant or coating. It is aimed at light dust, dirt and fingerprints, which makes it a good weekly pre-wash in warmer weather. Place up to 2 inches in a snow foam lance bottle, fill with cold water, dwell for 5 to 10 minutes and rinse thoroughly, then contact wash with a pH neutral car shampoo. The 5L comes without a pump.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Car paintwork
  • Van bodywork
  • Waxed paintwork
  • Sealed and coated finishes
  • Exterior glass
  • Weekly maintenance washes
  • Summer washes

Caution: The concentrate can cause serious eye damage, so protect your eyes when filling the lance, and rinse all residue from the paintwork and driveway.

The Brand

Autobrite Direct

Autobrite Direct is a car detailing brand that describes itself as built by detailers, for detailers. It was originally founded in 2005 and, in its own words, grew from a small UK operation into a recognised name within the global detailing community. In 2026 the brand entered a new chapter, now operated by Technical Brands UK & Ireland Limited, and key legacy products and formulations have been brought back. Its range covers wheel and tyre care, interior and exterior cleaning, decontamination, and finishing polish, wax and protection, and the brand states that its products are formulated and manufactured in the UK.

The Drivers HQ stocks Autobrite Direct across the wash, correction and protection stages. For washing there are snow foams, Citrus Wash Multi Purpose Cleaner as a pre-wash, and shampoos including Banana Gloss Concentrated Shampoo and Ceramic Infused Shampoo, backed by wheel cleaners, detailing buckets with a lid and dirt guard, and the Detailing Kit Bag. Paint correction is covered by the Correct It range, from Restore Cutting Compound to Enrich Correct Polish, with cutting and microfibre polishing pads. Paint sealants, quick detailers, Ceramic Shield Magiseal and Carbanuba wax protect the finish, while Crystal Glass Cleaner and Clear View Glass Polish look after the glass.

Autobrite Direct suits enthusiasts putting together their first proper wash kit as well as detailers who want products that work together from start to finish. A typical routine starts with snow foam and a pre-wash to loosen dirt before any contact, followed by a careful hand wash using a bucket fitted with a dirt guard. Where the paint needs it, machine polishing with a compound and the right pad comes next, before a sealant, wax or ceramic spray protects the finish. Glass products and the Alcantara Cleaner then take care of the windows and the interior.

Whether you are topping up a favourite shampoo, replacing a worn polishing pad or building a complete wash and protection kit from scratch, you can combine Autobrite Direct products with the rest of your detailing and car care essentials in a single order.

Glass Care, Wash and Paint Correction

Crystal Glass Cleaner has been part of the Autobrite Direct range since 2005 and, according to the brand, was one of the first products it developed. Its high flash-off formula is designed to be sprayed, wiped and buffed, and the brand describes it as safe for all glass, mirrors and window tints. For heavier contamination, Clear View Glass Polish removes bug splatter, grease, fallout and stubborn stains from glass, and contains no silicones or waxes.

On the wash side, Autobrite Direct describes Citrus Wash as a powerful yet gentle pre-wash and all-purpose cleaner infused with citrus oil, diluted to suit anything from light cleaning to degreasing. BriteGel is a sticky, non-acidic wheel cleaning gel that clings to the wheel and tyre with less run-off, and Ceramic Shield Magiseal is a water-based, SiO2 infused coating that can be applied through a foam lance or with a trigger sprayer.

For paint correction, the Correct It range pairs compounds and polishes with dedicated pads. The brand describes Enrich as a medium machine polishing compound that removes car wash scratches, swirl marks and light oxidation, and as a one-step cut and finish compound for most paint finishes. The Drivers HQ stocks it alongside Restore Cutting Compound, the Autobrite Cutting Pad and Correct It PRO microfibre polishing pads.
