Review: Works well - Works well - nicesmell
Review: Worth Buying and Trying - Bit of an obsessive car cleaner/detailer here, so I've tested a ton of products from a lot of brands. ValetPRO isn't exactly one of my go-to brands however they do have some products that are brilliant for their price. The citrus pre-wash is great quality for the price and very easy to use. Noticeable removal of dirt on initial application at start of exterior detailing process, just not as powerful as other brand/product options out there (ie. Nielsen Prewash), but really can't complain for the price. Definitely worth a buy and try, and adding to collection!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: 10 to 1 as 10 this and 1 water ? Tia**
A: 1 part citrus pre wash to 10 parts water, depending on the level of cleaning required.

**Q: Is this the citrus pre-wash or snow foam (which is what the picture is indicating)**
A: This is the pre- wash

**Q: Can this be used to clean upholstery**
A: No, if I were you I’d get a upholstery specific cleaner. This is a de-greaser which helps lift road grime on exterior

**Q: Is this safe to use on plastic trim? I am wanting to use it on a nissan juke which has plastic trim all along under the bodywork.**
A: Yes it's safe. I would dilute it down. I have a 5  litre pump sprayer and I would suggest a dilution of 1:10 for normal cleaning. And maybe a 1:5 for a real mucky job. Just make sure the product doesnt dry on vehicle. I tend to spray on car then spray a foam spray on top.

This stuff is magic. On my second lot now. A little goes a long way and definitely shifts the grime away with ease. Would not wash a car without using this first. Smells nice too.
