What's your favorite car wash shampoo for a white car?

I used Meguiars Gold Class shampoo on my Nighthawk Black TSX, worked great. It doesn't seem to work so well on my Candy White VW R32. The candy white doesn't look as bright as I know it is after a wash. What do you use?

I polished and sealed (2 coats) with Four Star about 6 weeks ago, the paint should be ok. With all the rain we've been getting this summer up here in the northeast it's hard to keep the car clean. Washes have been few and far in between this summer. I feel like the Meguiar's isn't up to the task, at least not without some help.

I was thinking about picking something like this up from your store:
1 Gal mister/sprayer + 32 oz Optimum NRWS http://www.prestostore.com/cgi-bin/s...0057&pd=295115
does this thing attach to a hose? how do you use it?

Its a portable sprayer meant for using in conjunction with Optimum No Wash Rinse and Shine. Add a couple oz of NRWS to a near gallon of water, and you can safely pretreat your cars surface. This helps to soften and loosen up debris before you run a wash mit over it.
Im currently out of stock of these items, but more expected in the week ahead.
