The manufacturer's Safety Data Sheet classifies this product with one or more GHS Category 1 health hazards — the most severe tier. The hazard statements in quotes below are the verbatim GHS language from the SDS, as required by OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard. The line under each statement translates the GHS classification into plain language.
- H318 “Causes serious eye damage.”
GHS Category 1 eye damage — classified as causing irreversible eye damage on contact.
If swallowed, inhaled, or splashed in eyes:
Call Poison Control immediately at 1-800-222-1222 (US, 24/7, free) and have the product container with you. Poison Control's standing guidance is to not induce vomiting after chemical exposure; they will direct first-aid steps based on the specific product.

From the manufacturer’s Safety Data Sheet, Section 8
“H318 (serious eye damage, Category 1) is classified at concentrate strength in the SDS (GHS05 pictogram). At the 1:300 working-solution dilution the aminosiloxane concentration drops well below the H318 threshold; the classification reflects concentrate handling. The H318 label on the SDS drives the required tier per site validation rules.”

CarCareTruth's Analysis
Last reviewed May 26, 2026
TL;DR Cleans well and is safe on ceramic coatings, wax, and paint protection films at normal wash dilution — the 4.7-star consensus from 563 reviews backs that. Low foam is by design: the formula prioritizes lubricity and hydrophobic layering over suds volume.
What it is and how it performs
Gyeon Q²M Bathe+ is a ceramic-infused maintenance shampoo that cleans road film while depositing a light hydrophobic layer on each pass. Use 15–20 mL per 10-liter bucket (1:300 working solution) or a few squirts in a foam cannon. The formula produces modest foam but a noticeably slick mitt glide — reviewers with ceramic-coated and wrapped vehicles consistently report no swirl marks and no protection stripping after months of weekly use.
Who should buy this — and who should skip it
Best for owners who have invested in a ceramic coating or sealant and need a weekly maintenance wash that reinforces rather than degrades their protection. Skip it if you want heavy foam for pre-wash visual coverage or need a dedicated strip shampoo before reapplying wax or a new coating — choose a strip-formulated product for that.
Safety and environmental impact
The SDS carries a DANGER signal word driven by H318 (serious eye damage, Category 1) at concentrate strength. At 1:300 working-solution dilution the aminosiloxane concentration drops below the H318 threshold, so the classification reflects the undiluted product. H315 (skin irritation) also applies only at concentrate. No Prop 65 warning on the Amazon listing. One ingredient — C12-15 alcohols ethoxylated — carries ingredient-level aquatic toxicity data; SDS Section 12 reports no aquatic classification at the mixture level but the ingredient flag is factored into the environment score.
Frequently asked questions
Is Gyeon Q²M Bathe+ safe on ceramic coatings?▾
Yes. Multiple verified purchasers with ceramic-coated vehicles — including those using Gyeon's own Mohs coating — report no stripping or degradation after months of weekly use. The SDS-confirmed pH 7 means the wash solution is neutral at any dilution, which is the key requirement for coating maintenance. This is the primary reason buyers in the ceramic-coating community choose it.
Is there a California Prop 65 warning on Gyeon Bathe+?▾
No. The Amazon listing carries no Prop 65 warning, and none of the ingredients at the concentrations listed in the SDS appear on the current Prop 65 enforcement list with active warnings for this product type.
How much product do I use per wash?▾
The Amazon application instructions show 15–20 mL per 10 liters of water (roughly 1:500 to 1:300). At that ratio a 1000 mL bottle covers 50–65 washes. Several reviewers note the bottle's built-in pump dispenser makes measuring easy and prevents over-dosing.
Does Bathe+ produce a lot of suds?▾
No, and that is by design. Multiple reviewers explicitly note minimal foam but outstanding results. The ceramic-infused formula prioritizes hydrophobic protection and lubricity over foam volume. If you need heavy suds for a foam cannon pre-wash, a conventional high-foam shampoo is a better fit for that step.
How does Bathe+ compare to Gyeon Bathe (without the plus)?▾
Bathe is Gyeon's standard wash formula; Bathe+ adds the ceramic/siloxane additive intended to boost hydrophobicity on coated surfaces and leave a water-sheeting layer after each wash. The practical difference is most noticeable on ceramic-coated paint where reviewers report longer-lasting beading with the Plus version. For uncoated paint, the standard Bathe is a cheaper per-wash option.
Can I use this in a foam cannon?▾
Yes, though reviewers note foam volume is lower than dedicated foam-cannon shampoos. Several verified purchasers report satisfactory results at normal foam-cannon dilution. The low foam is a formula characteristic, not a defect.
What surfaces is Bathe+ safe for?▾
The SDS-confirmed pH 7 formula is compatible with paint, glass, rims, plastic trim, and rubber. The Amazon listing and multiple reviewers confirm use on wrapped vehicles. No surface-damage complaints appear in the 563-review corpus.
Is there an aquatic toxicity concern with this product?▾
One ingredient — C12-15 alcohols ethoxylated — has confirmed aquatic toxicity data at the ingredient level. SDS Section 12 reports no aquatic hazard data for the product mixture, but the ingredient-level flag is reflected in the environment score.
