Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the ALK version different?
Seals and internals are engineered for alkaline chemistry — high-pH degreasers, alcohols, and ketone-based products that would swell and destroy standard sprayer seals. If you foam strong degreasers or wheel cleaners daily, ALK is the version to buy.
How do I get thick, dry foam?
Pump to full pressure (until the safety valve clicks), and match the foaming mixer to your product. Weak, wet foam usually means low pressure, a worn mixer, or a clogged felt filter — all quick fixes with genuine IK parts.
Can I use acids in it?
No — ALK models are for alkaline products. For acid wheel cleaners and harsh decon chemistry, use the IK HC TR 1 trigger sprayer.

Pro Detailer Tips
Patch Test First
Before applying any new product to a full panel, test on a small hidden area first — especially on older paint, vinyl wraps, or exotic finishes.
Read the SDS Sheet
Every professional detailing product has a Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Review it before first use to understand proper handling, dilution limits, and safety precautions.
Store Properly
Keep products in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures. Extreme heat or cold can degrade chemistry and shorten shelf life.
