The Stjarnagloss Snö X Intensive Snow Foam Pre-Wash is a hyper-strength snow foam designed for heavier cleaning where regular pH neutral foam may not be enough. Combining the thick, long dwell foam characteristics of Stjarnagloss Snö with the stronger cleaning performance of Först, Snö X delivers intensive pre-wash power for dirtier vehicles, winter grime, road film and heavy contamination.
Unlike regular Snö, Snö X is not pH neutral. It is a stronger alkaline pre-cleaner designed to increase cleaning performance before the contact wash stage. When used correctly, it helps break down stubborn grime, traffic film and organic contamination while producing thick foam coverage through a professional foam cannon.
Snö X is best suited to seasonal deep cleaning, heavily soiled vehicles, high-mileage daily drivers and professional detailing workflows where additional cleaning power is required. For delicate finishes, fresh coatings or regular maintenance washing, standard Stjarnagloss Snö remains the safer choice.

Important Usage Notice
Snö X is not pH neutral. It is chemically stronger than standard Snö and should be used with more care, especially on sensitive finishes, trims, metal surfaces and delicate coatings.
Do not allow Snö X to dry on the vehicle. Always apply to cool, wet panels, avoid direct sunlight and rinse thoroughly. If you are unsure whether Snö X is suitable for your vehicle, use regular Stjarnagloss Snö instead.
Why Choose Snö X?
Some vehicles need more cleaning power than a standard pH neutral foam can deliver. Snö X is designed for those situations where road film, winter salt, traffic grime and built-up contamination need stronger chemical assistance before the contact wash stage.
Its thick foam consistency increases dwell time, while the alkaline cleaning system breaks down heavier contamination more effectively than regular maintenance snow foams.
