First thing to note about this soap, it smells really good. I first thought of mangoes. Some say it smells like apples, which I did notice as well. The package is transparent, labeling isn't fancy (It's Poorboy's World :D), and the instructions are straight forward (not leaving you clueless).

I put 3 gallons in the wash bucket and mixed 1 oz of shampoo, then did a little jet spray into the solution until foam came out the top of the bucket. Boy, did it create lots of nice foam, which lasted the whole wash. 1 oz in 3 gallons worked really well for me. Manufacture recommends 1 oz for 2 gallons. The car just had light dust, so I can't really rate its cleaning ability for any heavy dirt. It's also really slick and made my Shmitt glide over the paint. I will be continuing to buy this shampoo, unless I'm tight in money, then I'll go for the DuraGloss 901. This is my favorite shampoo now, unless I find a better one :D .

Pros: Smell, Slickness, Concentration (1 oz for 3 gallons is really nice :))

Cons: I keep sniffing this stuff :( .

I'm planning to do a review of DP's Gel Wheel Cleaner on my rims, since they have really nice caked on brake dust that I have never been able to remove with any auto shampoo (Today's wash was on my friend's car).

Sweet review! You said it's really slick and made your ShMITT glide over the paint and it smell like mangoes or apples. That's making me want to buy some.:D I love smelling my products. Thanks for posting. Keep them comming!

I have used this wash before with similar results. I noticed that the suds stayed around for the whole wash. The smell was great too. Nothing like aromatherapy while washing!

Thanks for the review!

Thanks for your review! I have used this wash as well and IMO it's one of the best available. The slickness it provides is really unmatched.

I love my Poorboys SSS and Duragloss 901, both washes rock:righton:. I've noticed with those two not only are they very slick and smell good, but the suds just last and last. I can leave the bucket for an hour and come back and it's still full of suds.

Yeah DP's gel wheel cleaner works well. Next week I'll be using it on my rims. I'll be sure to take before and after pics.
