Hi,

I'm nearly at the end of my Zymol car shampoo, which has been great stuff and lasted a long time to be fair, I used the Autoglym car shampoo previously.

Just wondered what other car shampoos everyone else is currently using and can recommend to me? As I fancy a change.

Also where is a good place to buy good quality micro fibre cloths too? Iv looked on eBay but not too sure on the quality of some of them.

Has anyone used the dragons breath wheel cleaner/contaminant cleaner? as I'm nearly at the end of my smelly Iron X.

Look forward to people's thoughts and inputs, thanks in advance :)

Shampoo - Adams or Britemax CleanMax

Cloths - Ragmaster UK

Wheel Cleaner - BiltHamber Auto Wheels

    SHAMPOO: Meguiars Gold Class...The best Ive used and great value...Lasts seemingly for ever!!

    Also where is a good place to buy good quality micro fibre cloths too? Iv looked on eBay but not too sure on the quality of some of them.

     

    CLOTHS: Costco for value...Superb cloths.. Highly recommended...Can be bought on eBay

    YES...Very very good but Wonder Wheels Hot Rims @ Morrisons for £4 a bottle is just as good and superb value too..I use it all the time. I tend to use 'Dragons Breath' on body panels

    Look forward to people's thoughts and inputs, thanks in advance :)

    As above

    Some ideas from me would include....

     

    Shampoo - Optimum Polymer Tech Car Shampoo or Britemax CleanMax.

    (Bob - i got a sample of the Adam's Shampoo from Jeff - but not tested it as yet.)

     

    Cloths - Paragon Microfibres do a great range at amazing prices.

    A step above Costco MF's too - thanks to Sparkly for the info on Paragon :thumbup:

    Check out there website or the eBay shop for some deals .

     

    Wheel Cleaner - BiltHamber Auto Wheels... a unanimous vote i think!

    Cloths again costco or ebay

     

    Wheel cleaners depends , I use wax/lsp safe ones for regular cleaning (Espuma Revolution) on my own car and use an iron remover (Iron Awe. Iron X etc )  on customer cars and then Espuma

    Have you used the new Adams formula??

    No Ben I've got the original one, which TBH is great. In fact, I highly rate all Adams products, not tried a bad one yet.

    The shipment of the new formula only arrived a few days ago, I only got my latest delivery today. I'm sure the reviews will be out soon.

    Sounds about right - Jeff was waiting on the new stuff coming in when i last ordered.

     

    I have the old shampoo as a sample; but as you say - the reviews on this are very good :thumbup:

     

    What about their wax options - have yoou tested any of these Bob?

    I've got the Americano, massive tub. It's very nice indeed. I think if I was going to buy 1 brand only I'd choose Adams.

    Yes - Americano is superb value..... a huge tub for the price.

    Patriot looks interesting but perhaps a bit pricey.....

    When Ive run out of Meguiars Gold Class..I will be using that

    I used some samples of it ....Really really nice slick shampoo and very cheap too!!

    Yes - Americano is superb value..... a huge tub for the price.

    A mate has just got Patriot, so we're going to do a 50/50 test v Americano.
