At the core of ROAM's formula are silicon dioxide (SiO₂) polymer chains — the same fundamental chemistry used in industrial surface coatings. When ROAM contacts your vehicle's surface, those SiO₂ chains bond at a microscopic level with the substrate, filling pores in GRP, creating a sacrificial layer on aluminium, and restoring gloss depth on gel-coat panels.

•       Hydrophobic Effect: Water beads and rolls off rather than sitting and evaporating to leave mineral deposits and water spotting.

•       Black Streak Resistance: The polymer layer makes it harder for airborne dust, algae and diesel particulates to grip the surface.

•       UV Resistance: SiO₂ is naturally UV-stable, protecting pigments and resins from photodegradation over time.

•       Easy Dirt Release: Contamination sits on the ceramic layer, not the substrate — so subsequent washes need less effort and agitation.

•       Cumulative Protection: Each wash adds to the existing layer. The protection compounds and strengthens with regular use over time.

•       Biological Resistance: The smooth, sealed surface is inhospitable to algae and lichen — vital during winter storage periods.

•       Black Streaks: Airborne particulates bond chemically with oxidised GRP or gel-coat. ROAM's surfactant blend emulsifies these at the molecular level, lifting them without abrasion. The ceramic layer then prevents re-bonding after the wash.

•       Bird Droppings & Tree Sap: Uric acid etches gel-coat and acrylic within hours in warm weather. Tree sap polymerises on contact with UV. ROAM's pH-balanced formula neutralises these acids on contact, and the ceramic layer acts as a sacrificial barrier between contaminant and substrate.

•       UV Oxidation: Caravans spend far more time stationary in sunlight than cars. UV breaks down GRP polymer chains, causing the chalky, faded look of older leisure vehicles. ROAM's SiO₂ layer absorbs and scatters UV energy, significantly slowing this degradation.

•       Salt Spray: Sodium chloride deposits accelerate oxidation dramatically, especially on aluminium cladding. ROAM's hydrophobic ceramic layer prevents salt solution from wicking into surface pores.

•       Road Film: The grey, greasy haze from motorway driving — rubber particulates, diesel, brake dust. ROAM's ceramic layer means road film sits on a non-porous surface and releases cleanly at the next wash.

•       Winter Storage Degradation: ROAM's ceramic coating creates a surface inhospitable to biological adhesion — a genuine, chemistry-backed reason to wash before storing, not just after.

Engineered for Every Part of Your Leisure Vehicle

ROAM Ceramic Shampoo is safe and effective across all surfaces found on leisure vehicles. Most vans combine multiple substrate types in close proximity — and the wrong chemistry on any one of them can cause lasting damage.

The Science Is Simple. So Is the System.

You don't need to be a chemist to get ceramic protection right — you just need the right products in the right order. Maintenance Wash Shampoo for the regular clean, Wash & Ceramic Protect to build the SiO₂ layer, and Deep Gloss Ceramic Detailer to top up protection and finish with a deep, showroom shine. Three steps, and every wash leaves your van better protected than the last.

Formulated in the UK. Built for leisure vehicles. Proven on ours.
