The grey haze on the lower doors, the grime packed behind the rear bumper and the salt crust on the sills need a proper traffic film remover before a mitt touches the paint. Stjärnagloss Först X is the concentrated version of Först, the citrus pre-cleaner: the same formula at double strength, so you mix it to suit the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble strength: mix 50\/50 with water and you have regular Först, so 1L makes 2L and 5L makes 10L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDilute further for lighter maintenance washes, or keep it strong for the worst of the winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurfactants, solvent additives and natural orange oil break down traffic film, road grime and bug residue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSprayed on without aeration, so it does more cleaning on contact than a snow foam\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1L bottle for the home garage, 5L drum for valeters and anyone who pre-washes every week\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first step of a winter wash, before snow foam and shampoo.
