Need a couple of recommendations

[flyinion]

Tried to do some searching but apparently failing at the search box lol.

So I need a recommendation for a car wash solution and a clay.

Car wash:
Currently am using Pinnacle bodywork shampoo (came with my SSII kit). I'm looking at either the Optimum one (the actual wash, already have ONR) or the Dodo BTBM. Of course I'm open to suggestions.

Clay:
Currently using Mother's because I needed it fast and it was local. In the past I'd been debating either the XMT speed clay, or the Pinnacle ultra poly. I only plan to clay twice a year so the pinnacle might be too mild since it's designed to be used often and not take off wax according to the product page?

Go with the DoDooooo...the new "clay alternative" (Ultima Elastrofoam Paint Cleaning System) sounds great....on BOGO now....

My current fav is the Optimum (bought another gallon) car wash but have not tried the Dodo. Cost per wash is reasonable, smells good, good suds and lubricity. You might want to also try DG 901 and Ultima as you try new car washes. I think that Optimum Car Wash was available as a sample if you wanted to give it a shot too.

I have not tried Mother's, XMT or Pinnacle clays. I use fine clay from other vendors if that helps.

Car Wash soap would recommend the DG 901. I still have not found a clay that I'm in love with, The XMT stuff is very soft and a bit sticky, the Pinnacle is very mild. Those are the ones I have other than OTC Mothers that so far I like best.
The Ultima Elastrofoam Paint Cleaning System that's on BOGO right now is interesting for sure! I think if I were to be looking for a clay now I would try that instead.

I too am torn on what car wash to get. Just about out of my bottle of Meg.

I have Dodo BTBM and Optimum Car Wash, love them both. I'm in Sacramento too if you want a sample.

There are new (to me) car washes that I haven't tried, but these are ones that are excellent IMO:
DG 901
Optimum
PB Super Slick and Suds (just got reacquainted and my new fav. again).

I think I'm going to pick up the BTBM this time around (the 250ml). I've been seeing a lot of praise for it around here lately

Still debating which clay to go with.

My cart is overflowing! LOL!
