Personally suds are very important when it comes to a car shampoo. If there’s no suds there’s no action and if there’s no action then I may as well be doing a rinseless which is a completely different approach altogether.. It feels so unrewarding trying to wash a car with a soap that’s weak on the suds.
I’m willing to trade this entire bottle for 8oz. of your batch of this same soap if anyone’s interested... Because I will not use this again.

Re: Optimum Car Wash - Review
Just curious- why is suds so important to you? For me, it's all about lubrication between the mitt and the paint surface + ability to break down the grime. Suds doesn't play any role whatsoever in what I'm trying to achieve. Suds provides a nice visual, but in itself it doesn't "do" anything.

Many years ago a co worker of mine said the same thing and we had a minor debate regarding adding soap to create suds or not while filling up the sink in the meat dept. where we worked... He was like as long as the soap is in the tub is all that matters. I was like just let me do it my way, I need for the soap to mix and create suds in order for this to be effective. Lol.
It just doesn’t feel right. The lather from the suds creates a much more substantial washing experience.
This feels like trying to take a shower with a bottle of body wash you knew you ran out of yesterday but forgot to stop and buy more of. Lol. You ever have that happen? Trying to shower with those last few drops from an empty bottle? It sucks. Lol.

Mine looks similar to eldo’s. I agree not much suds but I felt it had good lubricity. Glided over paint (pre coating) and felt good on mitt. Bought reset but debating trying another standard soap. Might give Adams or Griots a try. Other than hyper wash, anyone recommend a ph neutral soap good for coatings. Looking to alternate from Reset and different soaps

Did it clean the car? Not much opinion expressed about its cleaning ability.

I thought OCW was decent but it doesn't hold a candle to Adams.

Re: Optimum Car Wash - Review
This is exactly how I felt about P&S Pearl, no suds / no lubricity. Went back to Adams blue.
