Yum Cars

Yum Car Care (often known as YumCars) is a premium brand of automotive detailing products designed for both professional detailers and car enthusiasts. They offer a comprehensive lineup of chemicals ranging from pre-washes and snow foams to interior cleaners and ceramic sealants.

The company originally started out in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, in the UK. As the brand quickly expanded and gained a worldwide following, they moved their operations to a larger headquarters in Dinnington, South Yorkshire, in 2022.

Yes. Their core maintenance products are formulated to be completely safe for ceramic coatings, waxes, sealants, and PPF. They clean the surface without degrading your existing protection.

Acidic shampoos are primarily used for "unclogging" or resetting ceramic-coated vehicles. Over time, invisible mineral deposits and water spots build up on top of the coating, making it look like the coating has failed. The acidic nature of the shampoo breaks down those minerals, restoring the intense water-beading properties of the ceramic layer underneath.

Yum Undress is a dedicated tire and rubber prep cleaner. Its job is to deeply clean and strip away old silicone tire dressings, road grime, and "blooming" (the ugly brown discoloration you see on old tires). Stripping the tire back to bare, clean rubber is essential so that your new tire dressing bonds evenly and lasts longer without slinging off.

A panel wipe is an alcohol-based prep spray used after washing and polishing, but before applying a ceramic coating or sealant. It removes residual polishing oils, old waxes, and surface contaminants, ensuring the paint is perfectly bare so the new protection can bond properly.

As the name suggests, it is a specialized solvent designed to safely dissolve and break down stubborn tar spots, tree sap, and sticky adhesive residue (like from debadging) without damaging the vehicle's paintwork.
