Product Review: Kärcher Underbody Chassis Cleaner

[Mike@DedicatedPerfection]

PRODUCT REVIEW: Kärcher underbody cleaner







Introduction:
As you drive your vehicle down the road an accumulation of debris will collect on the bottom side of your vehicle whether it be dirt, sand, salt, etc. Over time this buildup of contamination will start to break down the materials underneath your vehicle and start to form rust if left alone.

Product Description:
Highly effective chassis cleaner for removing dirt, mud, sludge, sand and encrusted salt. The Chassis Cleaner is designed to reach the underside of vehicles and remove corrosive sediments deposited over time. A build-up of salt, oil and mud can cause severe long term damage to any vehicle if left untreated. The Chassis Cleaner employs dual upward facing spray nozzles which spin at high speed and safely loosens and blasts dirt and grime.

Added step to your wash procedure

The dirt that was knocked off








Now that the chassis is taken care of, time to address the paintwork


















The cleanliness






Conclusion:
This unit works amazingly well and has enough power to effectively pressure wash off the excess buildup of debris from accumulation on the bottom side of your vehicle. The added foam nozzle attachment is a nice addition to the design allowing you to apply a protectant to the bottom of your vehicle. Never again will I merely accept tilting the spray wand at an angle underneath the vehicle to remove foreign accumulation.

Great review!


... I wonder if it's adaptable to the commercial electric Karcher Pressure Washers. I love my Karcher

Mike, thanks for the detailed review. Looks like I will have to break down and get a Karcher pressure washer and the under body chassis cleaner. Would be a great option to offer my customers. What type of protectant have you been using?

Yup. I want one! Thanks for the review Mike! How does the Karcher gun attach to the hose?

Do you worry about what ends up getting what when you get towards the underside of the engine bay?
