The Brand

VP-UK Detailing

VP-UK Detailing is the car care range of Leading Solvent Supplies Ltd, a UK chemical blender headquartered in Tockwith, near York. Leading Solvents began in 1986 repacking bulk solvents and now has more than 100 people across its sites in Yorkshire, Doncaster and Nottingham, and it formulates and manufactures VP-UK in-house at its UK facility. The aim, in its own words, is car care that is accessible, affordable and trustworthy, from snow foams to ceramic coatings. VP-UK is a separate brand from ValetPro.

At The Drivers HQ we stock VP-UK online with UK delivery and in our Ilkeston shop. Popular choices include VP-UK Snow Foam, the Hybrid Quick Detailer and the Glass Cleaner.

VP-UK wash, decontamination and protection

VP-UK wash, decontamination and protection

Wash. The Citrus Pre-Wash is a concentrate for the dirtiest lower panels, used down to a 50/50 mix for winter grime. Snow Foam is a thick citrus foam that clings for a long dwell without removing coatings: 100 to 150ml in a 1 litre cannon bottle, topped up with water. The pH Neutral Shampoo has no added gloss enhancers, so it suits gloss, satin and matte paint and wraps, and the Ceramic Shampoo is a low suds, high lubrication wash that lays down a ceramic layer VP-UK rates at three months.

Wheels and decontamination. The acid-free Wheel Cleaner is safe for regular use on alloy, chrome, painted and polished wheels, and the Iron Fallout Remover turns blood red to purple as it dissolves iron from wheels and paint.

Polish and protect. Fast is a quick cutting liquid compound that removes sanding scratches and holograms, the All In One Compound breaks down from heavy cut to ultra fine finish, and the Finishing Polish refines and protects with carnauba, Montan wax and siloxane, by hand or machine. Dry Helmet is a ceramic sealant that leaves a siloxane layer, Wet & Dry Seal goes on the wet car as a drying aid rated at up to three months, and the Hybrid Quick Detailer adds gloss and a thin hydrophobic layer between washes.

VP-UK interior, glass and tyre care

VP-UK interior, glass and tyre care

Interior. Cleanse cuts through grease on plastics, leather, wood, carbon fibre and chrome, and the All Purpose Cleaner has a gentle foaming action for interior trim and headlinings as well as exterior plastics, engine bays and tyres. Leather Clean & Condition cleans and moisturises leather in one step, leaving a non-greasy satin finish, and also suits Alcantara and textiles. The Femme and Homme odour eliminators break down bad smells and leave a perfume or cologne fragrance.

Glass. The Glass Cleaner cleans inside and out and leaves a hydrophobic seal, safe on tint, mirrors and plastic, and the concentrated Ceramic Screen Wash leaves a ceramic layer on the screen as you drive; mix it stronger for winter and weaker for summer.

Tyres. The silicone based Tyre Dressing does not sling: one layer gives a satin factory look and each extra layer builds towards a wet gloss.

Starter box. The Essentials Box puts six 500ml bottles together: Fallout Remover, pH Neutral Shampoo, Dry Helmet, Cleanse, Snow Foam and Citrus Pre-Wash. Most VP-UK liquids come in 500ml, 1L and 5L.
