This is what i use.

My feelings towards it is average, seems to dry rather quickly after I clean the section, suds is good though.

 

I use Z-7 show car wash.

 

Could you guys give some more input on the soaps you use?

1. How much Suds it creates?
2. Does it seem to dry quickly after you soap up the car?
3. How does it do in terms of taking off dirt?

 

I am using a bottle of Meguiar's NXT Car Wash that I still have around. I heard that it is discontinued now. Still had it lying around and loved what it does for my 92 Legend LS.

 

I use griot's car wash, I've used zaino, megs, and others but the Griot's is by for the best and less aggressive soap. Always use a lambswool mit!!!

Meg's Gold Class

 

Simoniz Gel

 

Armour All (snicker.......hey its cheap!!!)

 

I'm like you ... not into boutique ... I get whats on sale. And it hasn't let me down yet.

 

This. Get it at Costco every couple of years for cheap.

I used to use something blue(?) that they sold, which was biodegradable. I liked that, and it cleaned very easily and well. Seems I have to use more of this to get the same amount of suds and cleaning.

 

Zaino z-7

 

x2

Got a gallon of the stuff from Target last year, but it doesn't look like they sell the gallon bottle anymore.... only the 1/2 gallon bottle now.

 

Some of the boutique brands work very well sister products though. Im not saying I wouldnt use a boutique brand, or there not worth the money, its just that I use so many different products. and I go through auto soap the quickest....I also go a little heavier then 2 oz per bucket.=)

 

Ya I agree with Pat on the amt of soap i use, i try to change out the water after i get half the car finished.

close to 4oz or 5oz's of soap.

 

I use whatever is on sale for everyday washing, Zaino when I want to use something special like before a night out, family gathering, etc (kinda like dressing up hahahaha), I just bought Poorboy's Super Slick and Suds and it is by far the best autowash soap I've ever used It's super slimy and suds very, very well, but rinses off real easy. I was very impressed

 

Hey same here!

And I wait until it's almost half-off at Wally Mart then I get a couple of jugs. Even cheaper.

I heard Tresemme shampoo works too since it suds like crazy, but I haven't gone that far.

 

I use RainX with the wax bubbles. it works very well.

 

Meguires gold class for me

 

Irish Spring here...

 

Z-7

 

Griot's Garage Car Wash with a Boar Hair's Brush. Very sudsy and highly concentrated.

 

Meguiars Gold Class

 

just bought a bottle this week for 14.99+tax.
so far its very nice and sudsy. It did a good job

 

1+ for the Mequires Gold Glass,

BTW, it smells great too!

 

I render my own from lard I steal from the lypo clinic downtown

 

LOL!! i use meguiars deep crystal wash..

 

x2 I've tried a few brands and I find this one suds up nicely.

It's the only Armour All product I use.

It's not always about the suds...I'm sure you've read about that before, but just pointing out for others.

I've tried all sorts, store bought, online, etc. I really like P21S Bodywork Conditioning Shampoo - especially if I plan to work on the car beyond a wash that day. Otherwise, I've also tried Sonus as part of a kit from the online selection.

Regarding store bought, you name it I've probably tried it. The last I bought was some Turtle Wax Ice maybe? I found a big bottle of Meguirs NXT that I didn't even know I had, haha. I buy WAAAYYYYY too much car stuff, haha.

 

Only Meguirs Gold Class. It's the only thing my TSX has ever known...

 

Super Slick & Suds Concentrated Car Wash

http://www.poorboysworld.com/super-slick.htm

It's very sudsy, slippery, and smells great. Never strips the sealant and always gets off any type of bugs, dirt, or stains.

 

I take it to the carwash haha not too sure what kinda soap they use!!

I guess we're not all into car care the same as others, but it looks like you've got a NBP from your avatar. You'll be back in a year to ask us how to remove those swirls

In all seriousness though, whatever you're happy with is what matters most!

 

We never, ever say "Told ya so" either!
