NC13 – Alkaline heavy-duty cleaner for wheels, interior & exterior

NC13 is a powerful alkaline cleaner for wheels, interior and exterior. It effortlessly removes dirt, grease, oil, brake dust, tar spots and bug residue – ideal for heavily soiled surfaces. NC13 does not add shine; it cleans intensively and prepares surfaces perfectly for further care products.

Important safety information

  • NC13 is alkaline – so we recommend wearing gloves, especially for longer jobs.
  • Do not use on leather, Alcantara or delicate materials.
  • Do not use on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight.

Benefits of NC13

  • Tough on grease, oil, brake dust & tar
  • Alkaline formula for intensive cleaning
  • Effective stain removal for fabric & upholstery
  • Prepares surfaces for sealants & care products
  • Ideal for professional vehicle detailing

Instructions for use

1. Upholstery cleaning (seats & fabric surfaces)

What you need:

  • Bucket of lukewarm water
  • Microfiber cloths (at least 5, blue recommended)
  • Washing-up brush (for stubborn stains)
  • Hair dryer (optional, for faster drying)
  • Protective gloves (recommended for longer use)

Step by step:

  1. Vacuum the seats to remove loose dirt.
  2. Spray NC13 generously onto the seat surfaces and bolsters.
  3. Wet a microfiber cloth in the water, wring it out & clean the seats:
    • Fold the damp cloth & press it down to pick up the dirt.
    • Treat the backrest & headrest if necessary.
    • Rinse the cloth regularly in the bucket & wring it out.
  4. Stubborn stains?
    • Use a washing-up brush, spray on NC13 & brush carefully.
    • Don't press too hard!
    • Wipe over with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.
  5. Drying:
    • If possible, dry with a hair dryer or rub with dry cloths.
    • Let the seats air out. If you need to drive right away, put a towel on the seat.

2. Wheel cleaning

  1. Spray NC13 generously onto the wheels.
  2. For thorough cleaning: use the NobelBrush.
  3. Stubborn dirt?
    • Use the NobelPad & spray enough NC13 onto the surface and the pad.
    • Caution: Always use enough liquid to avoid scratches.
  4. Rinse with water & dry.

3. Exterior cleaning

  1. Spray NC13 onto glass & paint to remove bug residue.
  2. Wipe off with a microfiber cloth.
  3. Don't expect shine – for extra gloss, follow up with NC1.

Important notes

  • Do not use on leather & Alcantara!
  • Wipe fabric surfaces dry after cleaning or dry them with a hair dryer.
  • Before paint correction: use NC13 with the NobelPad to decontaminate the paint in small areas.

Summary

NC13 is a powerful alkaline cleaner for heavily soiled areas. It removes grease, oil, brake dust & bug residue, but it is not a gloss product. Thanks to its intensive cleaning power, it prepares surfaces perfectly for subsequent care products.
