I just used this for the first time this weekend, and man was it slippery!!!!

Very impressive to say the least....

Yep, meaning a swirl free wash!

I like Poorboys a lot, but the new DP is great too without the gun.

The Poorboy's is definitely a great soap. However, the new formula Optimum Car Wash is just about as good IMO. It's not quite as slick as the PB's but it has better suds, longer lasting suds, and gives your car a "just waxed" look. Plus, the Optimum is significantly cheaper.

the three soaps mentioned here are my personal favorites.

PB's SS&S
Optimum new formula
DP xtreme foam formula

I thinking about getting some PB's SS&S.

Looks like a strong following of PB's SS&S. I have never tried it myself, but I guess I need too. LOL
I use Megs NXT Wash on my personal vehicle.
I use QEW on my customers' cars unless they are wicked dirty.
