Between 50 and 55mm for the Carpro 4-liter bottles and tap.

Re: DFB's Soapy Notes
Another addition to this thread.....................
P&S Frostbite - Debuting earlier this year, this is an alkaline leaning soap aimed at ceramic coating maintenance or when additional cleaning power is required. Frostbite was primarily designed as a foaming pre-wash, the ultra-thick foam clings to the vehicle to soak, break down and encapsulate contamination.
In use, Frostbite immediately impresses with thick shaving cream foam, in fact this is the first P&S soap that actually foams properly. I have used this soap as a pre-wash and as a contact wash, its abilities on both counts average at best. Diluted, foamed and allowed to dwell as recommended, I found most of the road grime still on the paint. Frostbite is nowhere near as effective as Bilt Hamber Touch-less in this regard. As a contact wash, it's not the most lubricious either. The scent is quite unique, a "Eucalyptus-mint" aroma. Measured pH sits at around 10.77.
Overall, not a standout product in my opinion.
Lubrication – 5/10
Cleaning Ability 6/10
Scent – Mild, Pleasant.
PH Level – 10.77 (measured)
Consistency - Thin
Foam Quality - Ultra Thick
Overall Rating – 6/10

I really appreciate your no holds barred product reviews
I just get sick of looking for usable information and finding nothing but hype from the usual suspects
Keep the info coming and thanks

Re: DFB's Soapy Notes
Have you tried the Bilt Hamber Autowash yet? I saw a reply where you mentioned it, but didn't see the review. Great job by the way, lots of good info!

I have Auto-Wash and Auto-Foam but have yet to try them. I know Bilt Hamber is all about the performance of the product itself, but the lack of scent takes away some of the fun.

I find that interesting
I think Auto Foam has a distinctive scent, not super powerful but distinct nonetheless
Not fruity or anything but not unpleasant, to me anyway
After I’ve used it the smell lingers in the garage as well
Different strokes and all that

I would say that is the natural scent of the chemicals itself, which is a Bilt Hamber thing. Not unpleasant, not pleasant.

Thanks, I have only used AF so I am not up on BH products
On a separate note, how are you liking the MTM wide mouth adapter and bottle?
