Cleaning prowess? Check. Lovely fragrance? You betcha! pH neutral? Yeasssh. Limescale inhibitors? What are those? Read on, or buy now - there's no wrong answer.

Gentle, residue-free, and good with wax and sealant layers. Born to be Mild is detailing's OG car shampoo.

  • pH-neutral and wax/sealant-safe
  • Limescale inhibitors help prevent water spots
  • Super concentrated for great economy - 1:800 dilution
  • Ultra-lubricated to reduce swirl risk
  • Long lasting, thick suds to help lift dirt
  • Safe on all finishes including wraps and matt
  1. Add 2–3 capfuls to a large bucket of cold (or even better) warm water; add an extra capful in hard water areas (recommended standard dilution 1:800)
  2. Agitate with a pressure washer or hose to create foam
  3. Use a wash mitt to clean your car from the top of the car, working downwards using the two bucket method to minimise swirls
  4. Rinse car and dry with a soft microfibre drying towel

    Safe on all finishes and coatings.

What is the dilution ratio of this product?
1:800 with cold water is the recommendation, maybe 1:600 in hard water or 1:1000 with warm, soft water - see what works for you.

Does it reduce water spots?
Yes, the inhibitors help reduce scale deposit marks. It's still best to dry panels promptly though.

Can I use it with soft paint and wraps?
Yes, it's perfectly safe for all finishes including wraps.

Will it strip protection?

No, not at the regular dilutions, because it is pH-neutral.

Best car shampoo I've ever used. I get my water supply from a well and it's very high in lime, born to be mild counteracts the lime and leaves the car gleaming, first class.

The name says it all

Used it for the first time last week and what a product. After using Apple foam I went on to use the 2 bucket method with Born to be mild there were lots of suds, my car looked amazing when it was finally finished.
