washing car

what car wash solution do u guys use? and i mean stuff you purchase at a store, no mail order zaino stuff. those products with wax in them any good? i'm guessing that stuff would be good at leaving your existing wax intact hence saving time until the next major wax job. i would follow-up washing with a quick detailer.

My humble solution for you is to hit the 'search' button. You'll find plenty of info if you do!

i've went through the search of the exact same problem, and i know why dee diddy is frustrated, like many who were before him

a lot of people don't want to mail order Zaino, but everyone who reply don't answer their questions, "what's good OTHER than zaino" they just say things like "get zaino!!" or "get zaino!!" or "get zaino!!" :P

anyways, dee diddy, Mothers and Meguire's both have excellent line of products, don't go with those 2in1 or 3in1 formulas because they don't work that well, get car wash from either company, and if you want to make your car shine, you can just follow their step system, from experience, Meguire's is a bit better than Mothers, more expensive too! (obviously )

a car wash that i use is meguiars gold class shampoo, it's like that goldish color. great product for the price. goto target and they have the gallon for like 9.99. i'd recommend it. also, costco has a gallon of zymol car wash it's pretty good stuff also for about 7 bucks.

zymol is very expensive here in Canada..
i'm not sure about the price at costco, but it is the most expensive in-store car wash at canadian tires, bt that thing attracts bugs after i wash the car!! maybe because of the banana oil and stuff??
