    Re: Current Favorite Soap/Shampoo

    I just picked up a gallon of Pinnacle body work shampoo in a combo deal. . It’s a bit thick but mixes super easy in the bucket. Awesome suds, smells great, super slick, cleans well and rinses nicely. Only need 1 or 2oz per wash. I haven’t used this in a few years untill recently. I forgot what a great soap it is.

    It checks all the boxes except for price. The 16oz bottle is stupidly priced. The gallon with a 25% off sale isn’t so bad.

    Optimum Car Wash was a soap I bought recently as an afterthought but ended surprising me with its user experience. It doesn't product the ultra-thick foam of GSF, but its runnier consistency seems to cling to the paint really well. It's also nicely slick and smells lovely. I like this soap better than I expected.



    Another impulse buy but a product I have fallen in love with is Shine Supply Shift. This foams in a similar fashion to Optimum Car Wash, with similar long dwell period and clean rinsing. The scent is not unlike the new P&S Absolute, just stronger as you tend to use more of it when foaming. I really, really like this soap!





    There are always hits and misses when trying new products. One that didn't wow me was Gtechniq G-Wash. It's an ok product, but just didn't wow me. Its scent is ok, its slickness is ok, the foam is ok................you get the point.



    I also did not like Stjarnagloss Sno. It foams as it should, but it just didn't feel that nice to use, strangely grabby when used as a contact wash. It also stained the pickup tube of my foam cannon.

    If you can get Tacs System Mystic bubble you should give it a whirl. Current favorite bucket wash soap.

    Once my rapidwaxx(sometime next summer) is gone i'm thinking about getting the new Tacsystems Quartz Max Plus. I like that you can use it for a drying aid and even dilute it 1(product):3. Makes things simple. Not cheap but still much cheaper than Polish Angel. I'll still be playing around with my 3mth can of cancoat for the next 6-9mths i guess. It's not super hard to use but i'm just tired of all the prep work, timing, wind, sun, soaking towels, high spots etc.

    I used 500ml of the aqua waterless cut 1:3 a few years back and i was always impressed with the gloss and beading. Something like Carpro's Ech20 cut 1:20. Ech20 is nicer to work with i found however.

    I had original Qurtzmax and it was nice but won’t bead or be as easy to apply than PA. Not much out there compared in those 2 categories

    It smells good, just not at all like I expected. I remember when the Ultima line came out and I couldn't afford any of it.
    I figured it would smell....expensive.

    It just smells clean, which is a fine thing.
