For all you Surfex HD users or soon to be users:


Used diluted it is perfectly safe and even wax safe too as it's water-based.
I use it neat on wheel arches with a loo brush with no problems whatsoever. Sprayed neat onto filthy tyres and agitated with a stiff brush really cleans them up too.

Diluted in a pressure sprayer, for a heavily dirty car, apply a light coating, leave to dwell then apply again. Leave a few minutes then jet wash off. Roof, all panels, glass, plastic trim and even the Bellones.

Much quicker, tidier and gives far better results than SF.

This is from Bilt Hambers website:

With increasing restrictions on the use of solvent-containing degreasers and cleaners safer, water-based materials have been developed.

However it has been difficult to match the performance of the solvent-containing systems and increasing environmental restrictions on the ranges of acceptable water-based actives have further tested the formulators’ ability.

Bilt-Hamber surfex HD provides performance levels that match and even exceed solvent systems while meeting the latest standards of biodegradability.

surfex HD attacks all oil and grease based soiling, but unlike solvent based cleaners will additionally and effortlessly clean organic, or water deposited grime.

surfex HD can be adjusted in strength to suit the level of soil, remaining active at add levels of just 1 part to 200 in water for light work, or used neat for extreme duty.

surfex HD is recommended for all arduous automotive, commercial and domestic cleaning duties. Can be used on paint, wheels, tyres, fabric, carpets and most surfaces. Spot tests are always advisable.

surfex HD contains zero VOC’s, is biodegradable, non-toxic and pleasant to use, yet it’s ability to remove grease and oil based contamination equals many well-know solvent based degreasers.

I used mine today after picking up my new Nilfisk jet wash. I did find it was better to unscrew the yellow rose attachment and apply product that way. But hey, each to their own.
