Koch Chemie AF Active Foam | pH 9.5 Mild Alkaline Snow Foam | Phosphate & NTA-Free

Koch Chemie Active Foam (AF)

Mild Alkaline Snow Foam with Strong Cleaning Power

Koch Chemie Active Foam (AF) is a concentrated, mild alkaline snow foam and car shampoo designed to deliver stronger cleaning performance than traditional pH neutral washes. With a pH of 9.5, it effectively removes stubborn road grime, grease and traffic film while remaining safe for paint, wheels and glass when properly diluted.

Ideal for both enthusiasts and professional detailers, AF bridges the gap between safe maintenance washing and heavier-duty cleaning.

Enhanced Cleaning Without Harsh Chemistry

Active Foam is formulated to provide increased cleaning bite without unnecessary additives. It is:

• Phosphate free
• NTA free
• Safe on exterior vehicle surfaces when diluted correctly

The mild alkalinity allows it to break down contamination that neutral shampoos may struggle to remove, making it ideal for vehicles exposed to heavy road use or longer wash intervals.

Dense Snow Foam & Versatile Application

Through a foam cannon, AF produces a thick, clinging snow foam that softens and loosens contamination prior to contact washing. When used in a wash bucket, it offers excellent lubrication and cleaning performance for safe hand washing.

A distinctive sandalwood fragrance adds a refined, woody scent to the wash process - setting it apart from typical harsh-smelling alkaline shampoos.

Koch Chemie Active Foam (AF) is the ideal solution when you need more cleaning strength than a neutral shampoo - delivering dense foam, strong performance and safe results for regular maintenance or heavier cleaning tasks.
