Black Label Diamond Coating Shampoo-Mini Review

[Pats300zx]

Nick at PBMG was gracious enough to send me some of the new Pinnacle Black Label products to try. With the weather so nice and warm here yesterday I decided to break out the buckets one last time before retiring them for winter. A perfect time to try the BL Diamond Coating Shampoo !!!

I used about 4 good pumps for 3 gallons of water. Great suds !!!

Thoughts:

1-Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Coating Shampoo had great cleaning ability and was very slick on the surface. The little amount that I used produced a ton of suds that lasted for the entire wash.

2-Great packaging. I loved the pump dispenser on the bottle.

3-Great smell. The scent was a mild "menthol" fragrance and was great to work with.

4-It might be considered a more costly wash soap at $30 for 8 oz. However, it seems to be extremely concentrated causing you to use less during your washes.

5-All around a great soap with great cleaning ability and suds. I have yet to try it in a foam gun or cannon.

No...I used it on my Dodge Ram which currently has BFWD as the LSP. I did however apply the BL Diamond Surface Coating and Wheel Coating to my wheels for winter prep.

Good quick review, I thought I'd bump with a question for anyone who knows. How much is in a pump? If a bottle says 1oz per gallon and it's a 32oz bottle I know exactly how long it will last. But 1 pump per gallon? I have absolutely no idea how far to expect it to go.

Quebert, I have a review of this coming up too, I used 10 pumps into a measuring glass and got a little over 0.5 ounces.

GREAT post ekennett! I was thinking a pump might be around 1/2 or 1/4 an ounce. My math skills are pretty abysmal, but if 10 pumps is around 1/2 an ounce that means a 32oz bottle should have maybe 600 pumps. I use a 3.5 gallon bucket so this will last a whole lot longer than I thought, so the price isn't expensive really.
