About CARPRO Reset

A pH neutral car wash soap that cleans properly and rinses clean, with nothing added to fake the shine.

Reset is CARPRO's pH neutral car wash and one of the most popular car soaps we sell. There are no gloss enhancers or fillers in it, so all it does is clean. Dirt and road film come off, nothing gets left behind, and your protection is free to do its job.

Being pH neutral, it won't strip your wax, sealant or ceramic coating. Because it rinses completely clean, the beading and slickness come straight back after every wash, which makes it a natural match for a coating like CARPRO CQUARTZ UK 3.0. It's just as good on bare paint too.

Reset is made for the wash bucket. It's really easy to use, and a small amount gives you plenty of suds and slickness under your mitt. It works just as well in a foam cannon for your pre-wash, so one shampoo covers your whole wash. It's concentrated too, so a bottle goes a long way. Whether you're doing a quick weekly wash or a full detail, it does the job.

Pair it with a soft mitt like the CARPRO DabDab and a good drying towel like the Aquatouch BIG FELLA V2 and you're set. You'll also find it in our CARPRO Wash & Protect Kit and Ultimate Ceramic Coating Kit, and the rest of the range in our CARPRO collection.

If you want one shampoo that does the job every wash without messing with your protection, this is it.

Common questions

Is CARPRO Reset right for my car?

If you want a shampoo that just cleans, yes. It's pH neutral with no gloss enhancers or fillers, so it suits any car, from bare paint through to a ceramic coating. It's especially good on coated cars, where a shampoo with added gloss can dull the beading.

Why doesn't Reset have gloss enhancers?

Gloss enhancers leave a layer behind on your paint. On a protected car, that layer sits over your protection and can dull its beading and slickness. Reset leaves nothing behind, so what you see after a wash is your protection doing its job.

How much Reset do I use in a bucket?

Start with 20mL per 10L of water, which is a 1:500 ratio. Treat 20 to 30mL as a general guide rather than a hard rule. If the car's really dirty, a little extra gives you more slickness under the mitt. In a foam cannon, go for about 1:10.

What surfaces is Reset safe on?

It's safe on bare paint and on any protection you've got over it, from wax and sealant through to a ceramic coating. It's also safe on PPF and vinyl wrap. Because there's nothing in it to add shine, it's a good choice for matte and satin finishes too, where gloss enhancers can leave the finish patchy.

    I use this as my main shampoo when detailing, and it's incredible. The suds are great, the lubricity is amazing, so there's less chance of marring, and the cleaning power is decent for regular washes. Would recommend, 10/10.

    Wow. Impressive.

    I have my car ceramic coated and I look after it meticulously. I've used several other ph-neutral wash liquids but Car Pro Reset blew me away. It makes your car look 100% factory fresh. Truly impressed with the results. And you don't even need to use a lot to get outstanding results. This is my new go-to.
