Expert Notes

Stjarnagloss Glö is a clever protection product because it turns the final protection stage into a fast snow foam application. Instead of manually applying a spray sealant or drying aid panel by panel, Glö is applied through a foam lance after the contact wash to lay down a slick hydrophobic layer across the exterior. It is especially useful on well-maintained vehicles, ceramic coatings, waxes and sealants where you want to refresh water behaviour without adding much time to the wash process. The finish feels slicker, water beads tighter and rinsing becomes more efficient, which helps reduce standing water and makes drying quicker. The key is to use it as a post-wash protection product, not as a dirty pre-wash foam, and to flush the foam lance thoroughly afterwards because hydrophobic products can leave residue inside the gauze and internal components.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Paintwork
  • Clear coat
  • Ceramic coated vehicles
  • Waxed vehicles
  • Sealant protected vehicles
  • Glass
  • Exterior plastics
  • Paint protection film
  • Vinyl wraps
  • Gel coat
  • Marine finishes

Caution: Always test on an inconspicuous area before full application. Do not allow Glö to dry on the vehicle. Avoid hot panels, direct sunlight and windscreens where existing glass coatings may react or affect visibility.

How To Use

Post-wash protection application

  1. Thoroughly wash the vehicle using a safe contact wash method.
  2. Rinse the vehicle fully before applying Glö.
  3. Add 50ml to 100ml of Glö into a 1 litre snow foam lance bottle.
  4. Top up the bottle with clean water.
  5. Apply evenly across the wet vehicle using a pressure washer and snow foam lance.
  6. Allow a short dwell time without letting the product dry.
  7. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
  8. Dry the vehicle using a clean microfibre drying towel for maximum gloss.

Top Tip: Use Glö after the contact wash and rinse stage, then flush your foam lance with clean water straight away to prevent hydrophobic residue building up inside the lance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Stjarnagloss Glö a snow foam or a sealant?

It is both. Glö applies like a snow foam through a lance, but leaves behind a hydrophobic protective layer after rinsing.

Can Glö be used on ceramic coated vehicles?

Yes, Glö works very well on fully cured ceramic coatings and helps maintain gloss, slickness and water behaviour between details.

When should I use Glö in the wash process?

Use Glö after the contact wash and rinse stage. It is a protection foam, not a dirty pre-wash snow foam.

How long should Glö dwell for?

Only a short dwell time is needed. Apply it evenly, allow brief coverage and rinse thoroughly before it dries.

Will Glö improve water beading?

Yes, Glö is designed to improve hydrophobic behaviour, including tight water beading, faster sheeting and easier drying.

Can I use Glö on glass?

Yes, it can be used on glass and side windows, but avoid windscreens where existing coatings may react or affect visibility.

Can I use Glö on PPF and vinyl wrap?

Yes, Glö is suitable for paint protection film and vinyl wraps when used correctly, but always test first on matte or satin finishes.

Do I need to clean my foam lance after using Glö?

Yes, always flush the foam lance with clean water after use because hydrophobic products can leave residue inside the lance and gauze.

HQ Suggests Tips & Insights

  1. Use Glö after every maintenance wash to keep gloss and water behaviour topped up.
  2. Pair with Stjarnagloss Snö and Bubblor for a complete wash and protection routine.
  3. Apply only to cool panels for the best finish.
  4. Never allow Glö to dry on paint, glass, trim or wheels.
  5. Use 50ml per litre for regular maintenance protection.
  6. Use 100ml per litre for maximum gloss and hydrophobic performance.
  7. Dry with a soft premium drying towel to maximise slickness.
  8. Flush your snow foam lance thoroughly after every use.
  9. Ideal for topping up ceramic coatings between full maintenance details.

The Brand

Stjarnagloss

Stjärnagloss (usually typed Stjarnagloss) is a British car care brand owned by Dodo Juice Ltd, the Essex company that also makes Dodo Juice. The brand was relaunched in 2019 with a small, reformulated range, and every product has a short Scandinavian-style name that tells you its job: Snö is the snow foam, Bubblor the shampoo, Hjul the wheel cleaner, Glas the glass cleaner and Inni the interior cleaner.

The range is small. There is one main product for each stage of a wash, from pre-wash to protection, plus stronger X versions for heavy dirt, and the products are made to be used together. That makes Stjarnagloss easy to pick if you wash your own car at the weekend and want a complete routine without working through dozens of similar bottles.

We stock the Stjarnagloss range online and at our Ilkeston shop, including the products our customers buy most: Snö snow foam, Först citrus pre-cleaner, Glatt rinse aid, Glö hydrophobic snow foam and Hjul wheel cleaner.

The Stjarnagloss range, stage by stage

Pre-wash. Först is a citrus pre-wash (traffic film remover) for the dirtiest areas, usually the lower half and back of the car. Först X is the concentrate, made with surfactants, solvents and natural orange oil: mixed 50/50 with water it makes standard Först, so 1 litre makes 2 litres. Snö is a thick pH-neutral snow foam that is mild enough for waxed, sealed and coated cars, and Snö X combines the cleaning power of Först with the dwell time of Snö for heavier dirt, at about 50ml in a 1-litre lance bottle.

Wash. Bubblor is a pH-neutral shampoo with no gloss enhancers and limescale inhibitors to reduce water spots. It suits gloss, satin and matt paint and will not strip an existing wax or sealant. For matt paint and wraps there is Matta matt shampoo and Mörk, a quick detailer that keeps a matt finish matt.

Wheels and decontamination. Hjul is a thick colour-changing wheel cleaner that contains soap for road grime, an iron remover for brake dust and solvents for tar spots, and it doubles as a fallout remover on paintwork. Tjära removes tar, glue and bug residue with natural orange oil as its active ingredient.

Protect. Glatt is a water-repellent rinse aid that adds shine, helps water and dirt run off and makes the next wash easier; use it one panel at a time. Glö is Glatt and Snö in one: you foam the car after the contact wash and rinse, and it leaves paint and glass beading. For longer-lasting protection use Pärla spray sealant, or Glasyr, a glaze that fills minor swirls and then seals the paint with the same sealant technology as Pärla. Skära is a gloss-enhancing polish, and Silke is a high-gloss quick detailer for a final touch of gloss after washing.

Glass, tyres and interior. Glas cleans glass without streaks, Gummi dresses tyres and trim with a satin sheen, and Inni cleans hard and soft surfaces inside the car. The range also includes air fresheners, from the Roots, Angel and Jerry hanging cards to the Skönhet and Stekare sprays.

Shop Stjarnagloss by type: snow foam, citrus pre-wash, car shampoo, wheel cleaners, paint sealants, quick detailers and hanging air fresheners.

Our Stjarnagloss wash routine

Starting from scratch? This is the routine we recommend with the Stjarnagloss range, and it covers everything most cars need:

  • Spray Först on the lower panels, let it work for a few minutes without drying, then rinse with a pressure washer.
  • Foam the whole car with Snö, let it dwell, then rinse.
  • Clean the wheels with Hjul, then wash the paint with Bubblor using two buckets with grit guards.
  • Foam the car again with Glö (start with 100ml in a 1-litre lance bottle), rinse, and dry with a drying towel.
  • Finish with Glas on the windows and Gummi on the tyres.

After every use of Glö, run a litre of clean water through your snow foam lance, because sealant foams can block the lance filter. On a ceramic-coated car, use Först X at 50/50 or weaker with a short dwell time, and avoid it on a freshly applied coating.

Stjarnagloss and Dodo Juice come from the same company, so the two ranges mix well if you already use Dodo Juice products.

    Goes on well and produces excellent beading

    Reply from The Drivers HQ

    Thanks for the review Steve, really glad you’re enjoying the Stjarnagloss Glö Hydrophobic Snow Foam.

    Glö is one of those products that surprises people the first time they use it. You expect a decent snow foam, then suddenly the car is beading water like it’s been freshly ceramic coated and you find yourself standing there spraying the panel repeatedly just to watch it happen again.
