    Meg’s Citrus Blast wash and wax

    Anyone try this stuff out yet? Just got a gallon in today. Smells amazing.... can’t wait to try it out. One feature it claims it has is easy rinseability. Something I really appreciate in a car wash.... hence why I love Optimum car wash.

    Not yet. Looking forward to your results. Depending how good of a wax it leaves, one could skip a drying aid and go straight to drying.

    Then you could skip the drying aid when useing a car soap without any wax if you already have a good wax from the start on your paint. The drying aid is for them that feel like they need lubrication to their drying towel. I trust my drying towels to be so gentle that they would not be marring the paint. And use a QD or a glossenhancer after washing and drying to ad something extra to the LSP I have already. So it's not always I use that either.

    I thought citrus blast wash & wax where based on citrus oils that is a very effective cleaning agent. But it's only for the smell it's called citrus blast. A little missleading I think the name is. But hope it's a great wash & wax car soap. Will be intresting to hear what you think about it.

    •First of all:
    -I don’t like “2-n-1” car wash products.

    •Secondly:
    -I’m so glad I’ve determined that the
    LSPs I use on my vehicles don’t need
    to be maintained via “drying aids”.

    Do you use some type of detail spray when drying for lubrication? Something like WGU, ONR, UWW+, or maybe even just somethin like D155?

    When I do a traditional wash, which isn’t very common for me.. I become torn sometimes between wanting to see the true longevity of my LSP and just using a spray wax because it’s so easy to do.

    Hell, even when I’m doing a rinseless wash.. it’s hard to just wash with ONR and dry it and walk away. Never thought that would be a problem I’d have, but here we are lol.

    Re: Meg’s Citrus Blast wash and wax

    Tried out this soap yesterday. Had a nice lubricity at the recommended 1 oz per gallon however I think next time I might up it to 1.25 for a just a little extra. Its been a while since I used Gold Class but I recall it having higher lubrication. It foamed quite well with my electric pw. Hand wash was pleasant as was the scent. Its a very nice fruit blend smell. Cleaning power was good as it removed most of the bonded contaminants easily with a swipe or two of my wash mitt.

    Overall the soap didn't totally wow me but it also didn't disappoint me. Another good value from Megs. I guess in the end, a soap is a soap right? lol

    Re: Meg’s Citrus Blast wash and wax

    I have a gallon of it, which I purchased the same time I bought the citrus power cleaner +. Power cleaner is a great interior carpet/upholstery cleaner by the way.

    As for the citrus car soap, as I was using it I felt as if I should have used ultimate wash/wax (the yellow soap that is my personal favorite smelling product from Meguiars). Citrus soap is ok but ultimate wash/wax leaves a better coat of protection IMO.
