Why it works

Why pre-wash comes first.

Road film builds up between washes. Pre-washing loosens that buildup before the contact stage begins.

01

Loosen buildup first

Road film is loosened before soap or the wash mitt touches the surface.

02

Rinse away surface grime

Rinsing carries loosened dirt away instead of leaving it for the contact wash.

03

A cleaner contact stage

The wash mitt meets a cleaner panel rather than the vehicle’s dirtiest surface.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Do I use Grime Time™ before soap?

Yes. Grime Time™ is a pre-wash: use it before Foam Cloud™ so it can loosen road film and grime before the contact wash.

Do I rinse it off before washing?

Yes. Spray it on, let it dwell for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly before moving on to your contact wash.

What surfaces is Grime Time™ made for?

Exterior surfaces: paint, lower panels, and the areas that collect road film and buildup. Let it dwell, then rinse thoroughly before your contact wash.

What order do I use the products in?

Start with Grime Time™ for the pre-wash, then Rim Revive™ on the wheels, Foam Cloud™ for the contact wash, and finish with Inside Agent™ on the interior.

Is this part of the SEIFE Wash System?

Yes. Each SEIFE product is one step of a four-part routine designed to be used together, though every bottle also works on its own.

How long does a 473 ml bottle last?

It depends on how often you wash and your dilution, but most drivers get several washes per bottle as part of the regular routine.
