What's your favorite Chemical Guys Shampoo? I want a gallon of cost efficient shampoo, and leaning toward getting a gallon from Chemical Guys. Already tried Citrus Wash and Gloss and really like it. Looking at two others as well - Maxi Suds II, and Extreme BodyWash&Synthetic Wax/Gloss Enhanser shampoo. I want something not to strong, I'm not willing to wax after every wash. But at the same time something I don't have to use a lot of (like Megs Gold Class 1 oz per gallon)... Looking at something very sililar to Poorboy's Super Slick and Suds, but cheaper (Poorboy's is $40 a gallon). Any of those two listed above any good? Or should I just stick with Citrus wash and gloss? TIA.
I havent tried the other ones from chemical guys because i have never felt the need...CWG is a strong shampoo but if diluted properly (1/2 ounce to 2-2 1/2 gallons of water) it will not strip your LSP...it may be hard on it after a while but nothing too bad...the cleaning power and shine is unmatched from any shampoo on the market in my opinion...my vote is for CWG
I have a gallon of Citrus Wash 'n Gloss right now, but my next purchase will be another gallon of that AND a gallon of MAXI SUDS as I need something very gentle for my personal vehicles. Even at one ounce per 5 gallons, I feel like if I let the soap sit on the vehicle for a little too long that it starts stripping the LSP...
I agree that CWG is not gentle enough. I only use it when I prep a car. My hands gets dry when I use CWG... I want to try there Maxi Suds though For now my two regular soap are still PB SSS & Z7
I think I like the CWC better as I really don't need my carwash soap to have a gloss in it. But yes it is on the strong side and I too only use it for a pre-detail wash. Other wise I use Z7, but no gallons so thats not going to help your choice.
Thanks, everyone...I don't know what I will get yet though... My car quest only carries OVERPRICED ( I mean it literally) Meguiar's junk...
I recently bought a gallon of cwg and think it's one of the better washes on the market, I also like their Extreme body wash/ Gloss enhancer. The one I don't care for all that much is Maxi Suds II as it just seems too thin and too much like any wash you could pic up at your local auto parts store, and it doesn't have great suds compared to the other two.
I just ordered a gallon of CWG..so I'll post my impressions once I use it. Duragloss 901 is very inexpensive and I've heard that it's a great shampoo. . I ordered that too..so I'll compare and contrast the two.
Wash & Gloss over here! I had a gallon of some orange shampoo he sent me last year...it was really strong stuff that killed any LSP on the car
