День томуMy Spring Sale is live now through the end of March! 20% off all my soaps and 15% off everything else on Chem-X.com!
It was great to have Alex over to check out all the upgrades he's done to his truck and power wash his rig to perfection! We super cleaned his truck using our new prototype for our Stars+Stripes foams and the results were amazing! We then sealed it for the rest of the winter with our Snake Oil SiO2 Sealant!

@ChemX Місяць тому
I’m hoping to have everything final by mid summer. There will also be a new liquid version with a really cool feature that will even stand out over the powder must likely. We found that the process of evaporating down to powder refined the ingredients tho which is probably what led to the thicker foam and potentially a performance boost, so I’m hoping to be able to create 5ga of 25:1 ready to use soaps out of the 16oz jars of powder. Reach out at orders@chem-x.com I’ll def need testers😁

Love seeing this touchless wash method, question. Is the stars and stripes soap okay to use on professionally ceramic coated vehicles ? That’s actually what I do for work I coat all types of machines, would love to offer something like this to my customers. Always tell them to avoid car washes unless they are touchless. Thanks! Great video! 🍻
@ChemX Місяць тому
Thanks! Yeah I have a LOT of customers who use them on SiC coatings and have never had an issue, I've hit a bunch myself too and even on a data sheet level the pH tolerances on the SiC coatings I've researched are beyond the Stars+Stripes formulas, it def helps the touchless soaps work better tho
@cobykircher3438 Місяць тому
When will the new powder be available? I ordered a gallon of each Stars and Stripes, but didn’t plan on ordering again due to my stripes just being basically water lol.
@ChemX Місяць тому
So I’ve got to make sure the results are keeping up with the current liquid blends, and also make sure that it can stay stable over a long period of time once it’s mixed this way, normally they are blended when the liquid version is made. The sds still has to be authored, it should be very similar but the new form factor will need an update and certainly a new packing group for shipping. The label is looking cool but can’t finish that until the sds is done, and then I have to finalize my new label material and get proofs, usually two runs of proofs are needed if the material or colors aren’t quite right, and then we can go to print, we will also need to make an updated label for the 5ga pails the powder is mixed into. I have the final jar for them selected but still need to source the final cap and seal style, and then we can start bottling the powders. Then we need to design the product page and graphics and product shots. I’ll also need to figure out our total cost per unit and figure out how to offer them the best price point. We’ve got a bit of work to do still lol
