Cambridge, Ontario, Canada – July 31, 2024 – Transchem Group, part of OPW Vehicle Wash Solutions, is excited to announce the launch and availability of its new and innovative presoak technology found in Turtle Wax® Pro OneShot™. OneShot is a presoak chemical developed using a new type of cleaning technology that has been formulated to be three times more efficient than comparable products in the market today. The product is highly cost effective due to the low amount of chemistry required per wash while the chemistry doesn’t require the use of strong acids that can be harmful to vehicle wash employees, wash equipment and the environment.
As the name suggests, OneShot was designed to use approximately a shot’s worth of chemistry, or about 1 ounce. Comparatively, many other presoaks can use 3 ounces or more to accomplish the same result. This means that with just one 5-gallon container, in-bay automatic vehicle washes can wash up to 630 cars in touchless applications and 3,000 cars in tunnel washes.

Despite the small amount of chemical needed, OneShot packs a serious punch in its cleaning power, as it is also capable of acting as a standalone product for ordinary cleaning challenges. This alkaline presoak is safe and effective for use in all cleaning environments, including soft-touch and touchless washes in self-serve, in-bay automatic and tunnel types.

In addition to a robust selection of signage and marketing materials available to vehicle wash operators, one of the major advantages to using OneShot is its ability to produce a low cost-per-car, stemming from its very low usage per application and high dilution rates. Especially in a touchless vehicle wash, which traditionally requires a large volume of chemistry to effectively clean a vehicle, OneShot stands on its own.
