    SON1C Synopsis 2 - Chemical Guys - Citrus Wash + Gloss



    Wow! is what I said as I filled one of my two buckets with two Professional Grit Guard, grit guard insert, car wash grid one in each, as the suds began to overwhelm
    This became my favorite soap after that wash, it's extremely concentrated, one cap full (which is a small cap) produced immense suds for 6+ gallons, it produced a high lubricity solution which is ideal for maintaining a swirl free finish, the gloss it leaves afterwards is similar to a "just waxed" finish and this gloss lasted a week or so for me, which is quite long for just a car wash soap to leave and this is on my daily driven vehicle garaged outdoors 24/7.

    Chemical Guys Citrus Wash & Gloss 16 oz.

    and just for fun.. (click below picture to play video)

    This soap can also be used to strip LSPs, although I suggest citrus wash and clear for that purpose due to that fact that it is supposed to leave "nothing" behind leaving the ultimate bare paint surface ready for a new lsp
    Note this was just a quick review, nick 1up'd me with a more in depth and better review lol

    Just to update this, this is still my favorite soap and first recommended, it's an awesome soap, incredible bang for buck, great cleansing power, versatile with abilities to safely strip wax and sealants (if desired and used at the higher ratio)
    its brother citrus wash and clear is my personal favorite, as it provides a bare finish that if any of you know me, know I'm waxing! lol however just breaking into the chemical guys soap line I would recommend the gloss over clear

    So how much do you recommend to use without stripping the wax ?

    And what's the difference between citrus wash clear vs citrus wash red ?

    for wash and gloss its 1 oz soap per gallon to strip, for regular wash.. just a cap of the soap, hardly anything, super concentrated, wash and clear iirc is 2 oz per gallon for strip, and just a cap for regular wash
    wash red i've only ever seen at AG, and iirc the dilutions are a bit different on it, I've never used it so I couldn't tell you

    Don't laugh, but I've been using CW&G with the ducky foamer to maintain my wheels. It does a really terrific job!
