I am geting a little confused.

You are correct, it can be used to clean with HWE as directed on the label. It may be a little foamy. But in fact, Encap-HydrOx is not quite as foamy as our other dedicated encap shampoos. So it's kind of a "crossover" product. It may cause a little foaming, and you may need to use a little defoamer (your mileage may vary). But it has been effective as an HWE detergent, and it works well. Yet like I said, a little extra foaming can sometimes develop. So play it by ear and adjust accordingly if you start to experience too much foam. As you work with it, I think you'll see that it's a pretty flexible product.
