    So what’s the SiO2 part of it do? I’m not disagreeing, I’m just surprised at finding this out for the 1st time.
    And does that mean that it’s main claim to fame is being able to let the soap dry on the paint? Who does that anyways? Lol.

    Is there a car wash that actually does that?

    The keys to this wash is it wont hurt (possibly only enhance) existing protection. However, it can dry on paint and not leave streaks or spots. This has been tested by many of us down in Florida in extreme sun and heat and it can be confirmed. It also smells good and suds up nicely. Its a very high quality soap. My favorite easily.

    Re: Review - McKee's 37 SiO2 Auto Wash

    I have a question, I have used this soap a few times, but it doesnt lather up on the paint, it is like thick water with a little bit of bubbles.. Is that normal?

    Maybe the hardness of the water is killing the suds.

    I was one,, thanks for explaining.

    This is what got me confused...
    Reach for McKee's 37 Sio2 Auto Wash and rejuvenate the condition of your coating, increasing gloss and water beading.

    Re: Review - McKee's 37 SiO2 Auto Wash

    Sounds like a good soap but I’m not understanding it like some others. The ad copy makes it sound like it adds something but others are saying it’s just soap you can let dry with no soap residue ?

    I’m sure the representative doesn’t know either. Just will tell you it works by magic

    While I don't do it on purpose, when washing an SUV without any shade in warm, sunny weather it is very hard to keep soap from drying. If it actually rinses clean even after drying somewhat this would be really handy in those instances.

    McKee's Powerwash is another wash soap that makes a noticeable change in beading and appearance after use. The now discontinued Blackfire wash and wax product did as well.

    No clue as to the SiO2 part. Leaves me scratching my head. But, I have so much car soap, I won't be buying it anytime soon.

    I like the drying part of it, but aside from not being able to do a "regular" wash at home, I tend to wash in the morning, or as the sun is setting anyway.

    If there is no SiO2 in it then why is it $50 a gallon. That's quite a premium for a soap that has good rinse ability.
