Traffic Film Remover is designed for dirtier vehicles and demanding exterior conditions.
Its concentrated formula loosens oily road film, traffic grime and heavy dirt
before the hand-wash stage, reducing the amount of contamination that remains on the surface.
TFR is not a car shampoo and does not replace contact washing. After the product has worked,
rinse it completely with high-pressure water and continue with a lubricated shampoo wash.

Traffic Film Remover, also called TFR, is a concentrated exterior pre-wash designed to loosen oily road film, traffic grime and heavy dirt before contact washing.
How should Traffic Film Remover be diluted?
Dilute from 1:10 for moderate contamination up to 1:5 for heavier road grime. Always prepare the solution before spraying it onto the vehicle.
Is TFR the same as Snow Foam?
No. Snow Foam is generally used for regular maintenance pre-washing, while TFR is intended for heavier traffic film, oily buildup and dirtier exterior areas.
Can TFR be used on wheels?
Yes. It can be used to pre-clean alloy wheels and dirty exterior areas, but it does not replace dedicated iron, brake-dust or mineral-deposit removers.
How long should TFR remain on the surface?
Allow approximately 2–5 minutes. Never let the product dry and shorten the dwell time when conditions increase evaporation.
Can Traffic Film Remover be used in direct sunlight?
No. Apply it to a cool exterior surface outside direct sunlight and rinse thoroughly before it can dry.
Does TFR replace car shampoo?
No. TFR is the pre-wash stage. After rinsing, continue with a lubricated contact wash using Pure Shampoo and a clean wash mitt.
Does TFR remove iron fallout?
No. Use a dedicated Iron Remover when embedded iron particles or brake-dust contamination remain after the initial wash stage.
— When to use Traffic Film Remover
Stronger pre-washing for heavier road grime.
Use Traffic Film Remover when a regular maintenance pre-wash is not enough. It is designed for oily traffic film, contaminated lower sections and heavier exterior dirt before the contact-wash stage.
01
Oily traffic film
Greasy road contamination that remains after a basic rinse or mild maintenance pre-wash.
02
Lower body contamination
Sills, bumpers, wheel surroundings and lower panels exposed to constant road spray.
03
Heavier wash conditions
Useful before contact washing when winter residue or accumulated road grime requires stronger pre-cleaning.
