Autoglym Polar Blast Kit
The Autoglym Polar Blast Kit is a car cleaning system that leverages a pressure washer to apply specialized products through a foam gun. It is designed to provide a safe and effective three-stage car wash process.
Components of the Kit
The kit typically includes the "Polar Blaster" foam gun attachment and three different chemical products from the Autoglym Polar Series.
-
Autoglym Polar Blaster foam gun: This is the key hardware component. It connects to a pressure washer (compatible adapters for various brands like Karcher, Nilfisk are often included or available separately) to create a thick, clinging layer of foam with the specific Polar products. It features an adjustable nozzle for controlling the thickness and spread of the foam.
-
Autoglym Polar Blast: This is a pH-neutral snow foam used for the initial pre-wash stage. Its purpose is to gently loosen and lift heavy dirt, grime, and other contaminants from the paintwork before any physical contact is made with the vehicle. This helps minimize the risk of inflicting scratches during the main wash. The foam is left to dwell for a short period (typically up to 10 minutes) and then rinsed off.
-
Autoglym Polar Wash: This high-foaming shampoo is the main wash component. Used after the pre-wash rinse, it effectively cleans the remaining traffic film and dirt. While it creates significant foam, for the best cleaning results, it is recommended to agitate the product on the surface with a wash mitt or sponge before rinsing.
-
Autoglym Polar Seal: The final component is a protective, hydrophobic coating applied directly after the wash while the vehicle is still wet. Applied via the foam gun, it creates a water-repellent layer on the paintwork. This coating not only imparts a high-gloss finish but also makes subsequent washes quicker and easier.
Intended Use and Benefits
The system is popular for its simplicity and the quality of finish it delivers. It allows users to clean and protect their vehicles at home quickly and safely using a pressure washer. Reviewers generally praise the ease of use, the satisfying foam generation, and the noticeable water-beading effect and shine provided by the Polar Seal.
