what the best car shampoo



Duragloss ain't bad, but I prefer Megs Gold Class Shampoo. Good all rounder, can be used (when diluted) for quite a few different applications, such as claying etc.

I use Megs Shampoo plus. Good dilution ratio, suds well and well priced, thumbs up from me.

I think CG citrus degreasers next for me as a prewash and arch liners though.

Thats the spirit. Citrus is no bad, but i love the oily feel to the Wash and wax.

I'm using shampoo plus atm and it's alrite, may try 901 next though. Used BTBM and CG Citrus and liked those too :)

That brush looks decent, not bad value either if it lasts!
 
I really don't think I will need the CG Citrus. I do so little motorway driving, it is really only useful for cutting through the grime film . . . never builds up on mine, as much as I would occasionally like it to! Megs Gold Class barely suds on mine!!

Big fan of chem guys body wash n wax, leaves a slick finish.

Zymol autowash is good too, kind on wax and sealants.

I was on about the citrus wash n gloss lol, never used the degreaser although it's supposed to be good.

Any of the CG fanboys know why bare bones seems to be sold out everywhere :S (not the fact that it's a good product lol)
 
Ah, sorry Rich mate.

I might change up at some point to just trial some other products, but then again, have no reason to really :)

are you sure J Dizzle?

I tried using it diluted with clay once and it ruined my clay. Maybe that's cos it was megs clay and as Rich informs me, that's s**t.
 
Megs clay isn't bad, but isn't the best.

It depends how much you dilute it I guess, have only used it in this way twice (after running out of general QD/lube).
 
Have bottles of Body Wash n Wax and Citrus Wash n Gloss at the moment and theres nothing between them tbh, both excellent.

I hated Maxi Suds II, didnt get along with it.

Thats because its generally a rubbish shampoo all round, doesn't do anything well at all IMO, didn't produce great foam in conjunction with the Gilmour or even when using for hand washing.

You tried bilt hamber mate? Would never buy anything else now. The amount of extra crap it pulled off over other (well established clays) was unbelieveable.
 
I have not fella, Mike (bifcaids) is going to let me sample some of their foam and that will dictate me spending any money on other tester products.

Good things shown I take it?

Yeh the foam and their shampoo gets good reviews tbh. Yeh it's defo worth trying, about 12 quid I think and no need for QD!

Really?? I got some and think its pretty good. It also smells of Marzipan or bakewell tarts and I want to eat it.

Citrus WnG smells best! Foams up alot better too.

Alot of detailing products are personal preference though, someone could hate one thing while another person swears by it. Theres so many products aswell.
