Car Wash Soap Concentrate Specification Example for Municipal Fleets: OEM Replacement
Car Wash Soap Concentrate Specification Example for Municipal Fleets: OEM Replacement
This is a worked specification for car wash soap concentrate in a oem replacement programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The oem replacement version exists because the duty cycle on municipal fleets is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually lead time that slipped twice before bulk started.
