Yum Foam is a pH-neutral foaming pre-wash shampoo designed to blanket the vehicle before the contact wash stage. It helps loosen dirt, road film, and grime so you can rinse away as much contamination as possible before touching the paint.
The formula is built with a high raw-material content for strong cleaning performance while maintaining a pH level of 7. That means Yum Foam can be used over existing waxes, sealants, and ceramic coatings without stripping or compromising the protection when used as directed.
Yum Foam also rinses clean without reactivating during the rinse process, helping you move from pre-wash to contact wash without extra rinse passes. Use it through a foam cannon for maintenance washes, coated vehicles, protected daily drivers, and exterior details where you want a safer wash process from the start.
