How do you like the Kleenpak High PH. We are thinking of switching to this from powder due to the added convenience.

It seems to work fine in the SS. No or very little scent but foams great and seems to clean well. I haven’t tried it in my IBAs
Just note, the KleenPak line is very different than the other Kleen-rite chemicals that come in 5 gallon jugs/buckets

Trying to revive this thread, any new input of the Hyper Line from Kleen Rite? Was thinking of ordering a Ceramic and graphene in the hyper line from them as saw simoniz prices went up again for the ceramic and graphene.

I’ve been using KleenPak AquaGuard as my sealer wax in the Razors on one machine for a few years. Works well, good scent.
I’ve recently switched one machine to KleenPak Graphene Blast as the sealer wax on the other machine. I use my distributor’s private label branded Ceramic and Graphene. I was looking for a cheaper Graphene to use for the Sealer wax with hopes of eliminating drying agent. I was trying to eliminate a pass for some water and time savings.
Graphene Blast seems to work well. It’s hard to tell because my cats get Graphene and or Ceramic. I think you’d have to start with a car you’ve never washed before to get a real impression of its effectiveness.
I do like the products that I try from the Kleen Paknline. I use “High Ph” as my high pressure soap in my SS bays. Cheap to buy, foams well, cleans well.

Sounds good, trying to see if the performance is much different than Simoniz graphene and ceramic. If nobody has any idea on how the two compare I guess I will just have to be the guineapig

KleenPak Ceramic Wave is pretty dang good.
Some of these replies are referring to the ultra concentrates that come in a 5 gal pail or bucket. The kleen paks come in 2-2.5 gal jugs. About the only thing I use in the ultra is the bubble up foam brush. The presoaks do snot up both the summers eve and purple passion. On the kleen paks, we use the high pressure detergent, tire cleaner, and drying agent. Those have worked well. The foam brush kp will stain and the fragrant ps smells a little funky to me.

Sadly I am having to move on from Kleenrite chemicals due to the fact that they won't guarantee to not use T Force Freight in the future for my pallet load quantities. I have been waiting 18 days to get my chemicals and still have not shown up. Last week they should have been delivered so I paid for 5 days labor to wait on site for them. No show, no show this week. Numerous calls to Kleenrite and T FOrce. Maybe they will show up tomorrow but I have to be on site from 8 to 5 and they will not call to let me know when they are in route or even give me a specific time. Kleenrite said sorry and gave me 20,000 points even though I am sitting on 550,000 unused points already. T force response are that they are a union company and do not have to be more specific with time and do not have to call. I have always specified on shipping to call one hour before delivery and it has not been a problem for 33 years. I guess my 4 pallets of soap per year is insignificant. :Luckily another major chemical supplier who I am direct with said they will match any Kleenrite price. Not trying to bash KR as I still like them but I refuse to do anymore business with Tforce.

Dang, sorry for you bad experience. Shipping through Tforce for our pallets have always been great, they always call day before delivery to let me know when they are showing up. The guy who drops off by us has been the same for the last five years and is really friendly.
Seems like Tforce is having employee issues. We have always had calls to let us know when it's coming and no issues with deliveries, except for the last one a couple weeks ago. Showed up super late and was delivered by a 3rd party final mile delivery company which was a first with them and I thought was odd. Driver said tforce is way behind and using a lot of 3rd party companies in the Atlanta area. Is the terminal close enough to go pickup yourself in a pickup? They will usually load it with a forklift, only issue is unloading if you buy any 30 or 55 gallons

KR says they have many issues with Tforce and it depends on area. I have spent many hours on hold in the last week. Local terminal does not answer there phone and sends every call to national. National could not even get to them to answer. My other supplier said no problem about me specifying other carriers.

Just got our Hyper ceramic and Graphene in, will update Friday of next week on performance. Reorganized the equipment room and I must say if the performance is good my equipment room will have a lot more space since the hypers take up so much less space. We use pulsatrons so our wash can handle such high dilution ratios. If the performance is good might try the presoaks in hyper as well.
Which ceramic did you go with?

Ceramic Wave, as far as I know I believe that is the only ceramic offered in the hyper line currently.

Those are for through a foaming overpass/arch or through triple foam, not a typical ceramic pass.
