AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo delivers a thick, clinging foam that lifts dirt and road grime off your paint without stripping ceramic coatings, wax, or sealants. It is a pH-neutral car wash soap built for the two-bucket method, foam guns, and foam cannons alike.
Every time you wash your car, you risk dragging contaminants across the paint. Road film, brake dust fallout, bug residue, and environmental deposits bond to surfaces and act like abrasives if not properly lifted before contact. A standard dish soap or bargain car wash strips protective coatings and leaves the surface exposed. The wash process itself needs to be part of the protection strategy, not a threat to it.
PH-NEUTRAL FORMULA THAT PROTECTS COATINGS AND FINISHES
Ceramic coatings, paint sealants, and traditional wax layers are investments. Acidic or alkaline wash products degrade those layers over time, undoing hours of detail work. AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo uses a pH-neutral formulation that cleans aggressively without chemically attacking the protective layers on your paint. Whether you applied a ceramic spray coating last month or had a professional paint correction done, this shampoo works with your protection, not against it.
HIGH-FOAM ACTION THAT LUBRICATES AND LIFTS CONTAMINANTS
Foam is not just for show. Dense, clingy foam encapsulates dirt particles and suspends them above the paint surface, preventing them from grinding into the clear coat during the wash process. AMSOIL engineered this shampoo with a hybrid technology of surfactants, cleaning agents, and degreasers specifically tuned for high foam volume and dwell time. The result is a thick blanket of foam that lubricates the surface while it cleans, reducing the chance of wash-induced swirl marks and micro-scratches. This matters whether you are running a foam cannon on a pressure washer or working a mitt through a two-bucket setup.
ANTI-STATIC PROPERTIES HELP REPEL DUST AFTER WASHING
A freshly washed car that immediately attracts dust defeats the purpose. Static charge on painted surfaces pulls airborne dust and light debris right back onto the panel. AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo includes anti-static properties that reduce the surface charge after washing, helping your vehicle stay cleaner longer between washes. This is particularly useful in dry climates, dusty rural environments, or garage-kept vehicles where you want the wash to last.
VERSATILE APPLICATION FOR ANY WASH METHOD
This shampoo works in a foam cannon, a foam gun on a standard garden hose, or a traditional two-bucket hand wash. Load 2 oz. into your foam cannon or washing bucket and you have enough product for a full vehicle. The concentrated formula means a single 16 oz. bottle covers multiple washes, making it a practical choice for weekly maintenance washes on daily drivers, weekend detail sessions, trucks, SUVs, RVs, and motorcycles.
BREAKS DOWN ROAD GRIME WITHOUT RESIDUE
The blend of surfactants and degreasers in this formula targets the types of contamination vehicles actually encounter: road film, exhaust soot, tree sap residue, and light grease. It breaks those contaminants down at the molecular level rather than just pushing them around the surface. Rinsing is clean, with no soapy film or residue left behind on the paint.
COMPATIBILITY AND USE
AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo is safe for use on all exterior painted surfaces, clear coats, single-stage paint, chrome, glass, plastic trim, and vinyl wraps. It is compatible with ceramic coatings, paint protection film (PPF), carnauba wax, and synthetic sealants. Use 2 oz. per wash for both foam cannon and bucket wash applications. For best results, wash in a cool, shaded area and dry promptly to prevent water spotting.

Its pH-neutral formulation makes it safe for use on virtually any vehicle exterior that needs washing.
How does AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo clean and protect my vehicle's finish?
AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo uses a unique hybrid technology of surfactants, cleaning agents, and degreasers that provides optimal foaming action. This thick foam lubricates surfaces and lifts and carries away contaminants and road grime, reducing the risk of scratching during washing. It also features anti-static properties to help repel dust and contaminants after washing.
Is AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo pH-neutral and what does that mean for my paint?
Yes, AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo features a pH-neutral formulation. This means it delivers powerful cleaning action without being acidic or alkaline, so it will not strip or damage your vehicle's paint, clear coat, or protective coatings. The pH-neutral chemistry ensures it is hard on dirt while remaining gentle on finishes.
How does AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo compare to regular car wash soaps in a foam cannon?
AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo is specifically engineered for high-foam performance and is bucket-wash, foam-gun, and foam-cannon capable. Verified buyers consistently report that it creates a thick layer of suds in foam cannons and that a little goes a long way. Its hybrid blend of surfactants, cleaning agents, and degreasers is formulated to maximize foam thickness and lubricity compared to standard car wash soaps.
How much AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo should I use and what is the best washing method?
For foam cannon or foam gun use, load 2 oz. of AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo and spray from the top down, then work with a microfiber mitt and rinse from the top down. For a bucket wash, use 2 oz. in a wash bucket agitated with water filled half-full, and use a separate rinse bucket. In both methods, AMSOIL recommends parking in a cool, shaded area, pre-rinsing to remove loose dirt, and drying the vehicle promptly after washing to avoid water spots.
Is AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo safe for ceramic coatings and paint protection films?
Yes, AMSOIL High-Foam Car Shampoo is formulated to be hard on dirt but gentle on coatings and finishes. Its pH-neutral chemistry is designed to clean effectively without stripping or degrading ceramic coatings, waxes, sealants, or other protective finishes. Verified buyers report that it rinses cleanly without leaving residue on treated surfaces.
