The Only Plant-Based, High-Performance Car Wash Soap for Professionals and Enthusiasts
Meet Oberk's APS-- the All Purpose Soap that redefines what a car wash product can be. Developed using advanced, plant-based chemistry from outside the automotive world, APS delivers serious cleaning power—without harsh ingredients or environmental compromise.
This isn’t just another soap. With a pH of 9.5, APS is a professional-strength alkaline formula designed to strip waxes, sealants, and road grime—while remaining safe for ceramic-coated vehicles and delicate surfaces. Whether you're prepping for paint correction, removing bugs and salt, or maintaining a coated finish, APS does it all with eco-conscious ingredients and exceptional performance.
APS is not a thick-foaming soap. Instead, it’s engineered to lift, encapsulate, and pull dirt down and off the surface for safer, scratch-free cleaning. For those seeking a thick, high-foam pH-neutral soap, check out Oberk Foam Wash.
Note: APS is a professional-strength product. Always test on a small area first if unsure. For best results, use in the shade with cool-to-touch paint. Avoid applying to hot surfaces or in direct sunlight to prevent water spots or shortened dwell time.
Surface Prep Tip:
Always wet the surface before applying APS to ensure maximum lubricity and safe cleaning.
Heavy Cleaning: Use 0.5 oz per gallon of water
Light Cleaning: Use 0.25 oz per gallon of water
Mix 1:15 to 1:7 (APS to water) in a foaming sprayer or foam cannon
Spray directly onto surface, allow short dwell time, agitate if needed, then rinse
Dilute 1oz per 16oz bottle or 2oz per 32oz bottle (1:15 ratio)
Safe for leather and interior plastics
For leather: Apply with a Scrub Ninja or soft detailing brush for best results
Caution: APS is a slightly alkaline cleaner (pH 9.0–9.5) and may cause oxidation or staining on raw, uncoated, or polished aluminum surfaces. It is not recommended for use on bare billet aluminum, uncoated wheels, or delicate aluminum trim.
For best results:
Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
Do not allow product to dwell or dry on aluminum surfaces.
Rinse thoroughly and promptly after application.
Oberk is not responsible for damage caused by improper use on sensitive materials.
