What NAUTICCLEAN 01 AUTODRY SHAMPOO is and why choose it
NAUTICCLEAN 01 AUTODRY SHAMPOO is an active self-drying shampoo developed for cleaning all surfaces on all types of boats. Based on Perloban technology, it combines conventional washing performance with hydrophilic polymers that form a uniform film on the surface. After rinsing with water, this film enables homogeneous evaporation and real self-drying, helping to prevent marks, drops and limescale traces that often appear during drying with standard shampoos.
The formula is mainly based on plant-derived surfactants, does not contain waxes or silicones and is free from phosphates, chlorine and NTA acids. The surfactants comply with the biodegradability criteria of Regulation (EC) No. 648/2004 on detergents, aligning cleaning performance with environmental protection.
Main features
- Self-drying Perloban technology: releases active ingredients that act as virtual drying and repellent agents, forming a uniform film that promotes even evaporation.
- Durable hydrophilic effect: the hydrophilic polymer treatment reduces the contact angle of water, making it more difficult for dirt to adhere.
- Significant reduction in drying time: by improving water run-off and evaporation, the need for manual drying is greatly reduced.
- Helps prevent spotting: uniform evaporation and controlled surface treatment help prevent stains, drops and limescale traces after cleaning.
- Versatile on marine substrates: suitable for gelcoat, paints, glass surfaces, stainless steel, plexiglass and plastics.
- Plant-based surfactants: formula mainly composed of surfactants of vegetal origin.
- Without waxes or silicones: cleans and enhances surfaces without depositing wax or silicone layers.
- Free from phosphates, chlorine and NTA acids: designed to respect environmental standards.
- Biodegradable surfactants: the surfactants meet the biodegradability criteria of Regulation (EC) No. 648/2004 on detergents.
- Concentrated product: used diluted between 50 and 150 ml in 5 to 10 litres of water, depending on the size of the surface to be cleaned.

Applications and use cases
Recommended surfaces
- Gelcoat
- Painted surfaces
- Glass and vitreous surfaces
- Stainless steel
- Plexiglass
- Plastic surfaces
Typical marine applications
- General washing of all exterior surfaces on boats and other types of vessels.
- Regular maintenance cleaning where a reduction in drying time is desired.
- Situations where marks, drops or limescale traces frequently appear with standard shampoos.
Directions for use
- Dilute 50 to 150 ml of product in 5 to 10 litres of water, according to the size of the surface to be cleaned.
- Apply the solution to the surface.
- Scrub with a brush.
