Help me choose a good foam gun wash

[Bill1234]

I recently purchased a chemical guys foam gun and I have been loving every minute with it, however, I would like to know what is a good wash to use with it. I want something that does not strip wax and has good dwell time. I like gold class and the meguiars classic , but gold class is not so great in a foam gun for some reason. I was thinking these

maxi suds 2 -chemical guys
optimum wash-chemical guys
meguiars shampoo plus

Any thoughts and help would be appreciated

CG Snow Foam

Mr. Pink or Citrus Wash & Gloss

I tried several, Honeydew is the best foaming. There are "stronger" ones, but most have to shipped from overseas.

I would like to have good cling time to remove most of the contaminates, then clay the car. Im debating between cg snow foam and maxi suds 2 , thoughts?

I like Megs super soap. Its cheap too! Honeydew is nice but a bit more $$. I hear MR. PINK is great and Maxi suds as well. There are 4 choices 3 from the same company.

I look at honeydew as more of a maintenance wash. What about maxi suds or meguiars, for example, I need a non wax strip wash that is good for soiled cars

... Isn't a maintenance wash what you were asking for? Something that doesn't strip wax and is perfect for routine maintenance.

I want something that cannot strip wax, but can take off road film and dirt, for chemical guys I have narrowed it down to
maxi suds 2 -price point is good ,good suds
HoneyDew-expensive, but might be the better option
Meguiars pro soap line-economical, looks like its good

See my amended response above with quote from CG site.

Haven't used maxi suds but it seems people like that as well.
