I mix a little blendco hph (1-2 drops alkaline) in with my tri foam conditioner. Still get great color and coverage. Do the same with the foam brush in self service.
I have washes using a single high ph and washes using a 2 step low/high. Soils/hardness/rural/customer base are all factors in cleaning vehicles. As a rule from my experience you should see a better result with a 2 step process. Window mask is tough on any wash, even friction. My suggestion is...
