Cleanerfreaks Ceramic Shampoo Review
Ben from professional detailer CleanerFreaks reviewed the Hermosa Ceramic Shampoo and here is what he said
"This Ceramic shampoo from @hermosacarcare went beyond my expectations. If you’re looking for something to help seal your paint, making it easier to dry your vehicle. Then this is the product for you.
The recommended use for this product is to apply in a bucket and wash, however. I decided to test how well this would work in a foam cannon. I was blown away with the ease of use considering I used a very small amount of water and will continue to use it in a foam cannon after the wash stage.
The paint was sealed strong and the water didn’t stick to the paint prior to applying the sealant. 10/10 product"

Frequently Asked Questions
Ceramic shampoo for a car is a specialised cleaning product formulated specifically for vehicles with ceramic coatings. These shampoos are designed to complement and maintain the protective properties of ceramic coatings, which create a durable layer on the car's surface to repel water, dirt, and other contaminants.
Ceramic shampoos typically contain ingredients such as SiO2 (silicon dioxide) or other ceramic nanoparticles that enhance water beading and sheeting, making it easier to wash away dirt and grime without compromising the integrity of the ceramic coating. They often have a pH-balanced formula to ensure gentle yet effective cleaning without stripping away the protective layer.
In addition to cleaning, ceramic shampoos may also offer added benefits such as increasing gloss and shine, extending the longevity of the ceramic coating, and providing additional hydrophobic properties to keep the car cleaner for longer periods between washes.
Overall, ceramic shampoos play a crucial role in the maintenance of ceramic-coated vehicles, helping to preserve their appearance and protective qualities over time.
SiO2, or silicon dioxide, constitutes a natural compound comprising silicon and oxygen, commonly found in minerals such as quartz and sand. Its predominant industrial application, approximately 95%, lies in the production of concrete.
In the domain of car care, however, SiO2 garners attention for its manifestation as hydrophobic silica, a specialized variant. This particular form of SiO2, prevalent in ceramic-based products, engenders a remarkable phenomenon. It establishes a sleek layer upon the vehicle's surface, facilitating the formation of tightly bound water beads.
Consequently, water effortlessly rolls off the surface without leaving residues, owing to the surface tension exhibited by the SiO2 nanoparticles.
It sure does - and lots of it!
But why should you care? Well, SiO2's hydrophobic properties are a game-changer.
Take, for example, Hermosa Ceramic Shampoo – it's a ceramic car shampoo infused with SiO2. Not only does it make cleaning a breeze by lifting away dirt, but it also protects your paint from those pesky water spots. Oh, and it's not just for paint – it works wonders on glass too, improving visibility.
We get asked this a lot and we compare it to applying sunscreen. If you are at the beach, running in and out of the water, towelling yourself off, or running up and down the beach the effectiveness of the sunscreen is reduced vs someone lying on the beach. It's the same with the Hermosa Ceramic Shampoo - if the car is garaged and stored out of the sun with little rain then the coating should last at least 4-6 weeks. The more extreme the conditions, the shorter the duration. Ideally the Ceramic Shampoo is used over a ceramic coated car to revive the coating and extend the life of the coating.
You sure can. We would recommend that the car is washed using a non-wax or coating-based car wash before an IPA wipe. This should remove any residual Ceramic Shampoo and allow a clean paint surface for the ceramic coating to bond to.

What you will need
-
Bucket (or two buckets if using the two-bucket wash method)
-
Wash Mitt and Brushes.
-
Hermosa Wash Mitt or sponge to wash the car
-
Detail brush to clean around trim and hard-to-get areas.
-
Water blaster or a strong garden hose with spray nozzle.
-
We recommend a good quality latex or similar waterproof glove.
Step 1
Wait for the car to cool down if it has been driven recently (wait at least 30 minutes if the wheels or hood are hot).
Once the vehicle is cool to the touch, put on your gloves and lets go!
Step 2
Give the car a good hose down or water blast, and try to remove as much dirt and road debris as possible.
Step 3
Bucket Wash
Mix the Hermosa Ceramic Car Shampoo into a bucket using a 1:100 ratio (50ml per 5 litres of water). Spray the water blaster or hose into the bucket to activate the bubbles and mix the Shampoo into the solution.
Foam Cannon
If you are using a foam cannon the dilution rates will change depending on the flow rate of the cannon. We would generally recommend around 50ml of Hermosa Ceramic Shampoo in a 500ml foam cannon reservoir but it will depend on the flow rate of your pressure washer and how thick you prefer the foam on the car. This ratio delivers 10 car washes per 500ml bottle of Hermosa Ceramic Shampoo, the same results as bucket washing at a 1:100 dilution ratio.
Step 4
Wash the car with the Hermosa Wash Mitt or wash sponge. Wash one area such as a panel or side of the car at a time, then wash with fresh water. Do not let the wash solution dry on the car.
Step 5
Wash the car with fresh water. The water beading from the paintwork shows the Hermosa Ceramic Shampoo's hydrophobic capabilities in action.
Step 6
Dry your car using a microfibre drying cloth or similar.
