What Is Traffic Film Remover?

Traffic film remover, commonly known as TFR, is used during the pre-wash stage to tackle road grime and traffic film before contact washing. Using an appropriate pre-wash product can help prepare the vehicle for the later shampoo and wash stages. For a detailed explanation, read our guide to caustic and non-caustic traffic film removers.

Caustic Traffic Film Remover

Our range includes a caustic TFR option for customers who need a powerful pre-wash product for suitable applications. Caustic formulas require careful use, so always follow the product label and instructions for the correct dilution, application method, contact time and compatible surfaces.

Non-Caustic Traffic Film Remover

Non-caustic TFR provides another option for vehicle pre-washing, including products in our range formulated with wax. The right choice depends on the vehicle, surface, level of soiling and the individual product's intended use. Always check the specific product information rather than assuming every TFR can be used in the same way.

Traffic Film Remover vs Snow Foam

Traffic film remover and conventional pre-wash snow foam can both form part of the early stages of a vehicle-cleaning routine, but they are different product types and formulations vary. Choose the product that suits the cleaning job and follow its instructions. You can browse our Snow Foam collection for available foam products.

Applying Traffic Film Remover

The correct application method depends on the individual product. If you need suitable dispensing equipment, browse our Spray Bottles & Professional Sprayers collection and check that your chosen bottle, sprayer or trigger is compatible with the chemical being used.

What Comes After the Pre-Wash?

After using and thoroughly rinsing the chosen pre-wash product according to its directions, continue with the appropriate contact-wash stage. Browse our Vehicle Shampoo and Wash Mitts collections for products used during regular vehicle washing.
