Found this on detailing world last week & top marks for the main guy doing this

& after searching, I decided to buy the Britemax clean max shampoo 32oz  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Britemax-Clean-Max-32oz-/172158081668?hash=item28156bda84:g:kYoAAOSwc-tY5o8q

 

which I tested out last night & I was very impressed with the results, now I do use the 3oz of shampoo method when washing so I didn't change from that but next time I think I will only use 1oz - 1 1/2oz as you really don't need a lot, I found the suds never ending with a lot of suds in the bucket, it definitely foams up very well & it's also very slick & the smell is like a bubblegum flavour definitely reminds me of something but can't think what it is! Britemax cleaned the vRS very well & surprisingly it didn't leave any water spots or water runs/drips Maybe because I washed the vRS after 7pm? I always use a QD when drying & this time instead of using BSD, I opted to use EZ chrome high gloss spray wax as a drying aid (love the smell of the EZ) I will post a couple of pictures later, when the sun is shinning my way  

 

I would have to agree with the review on D/W about this shampoo & I have a new product in my collection, I have quite a few shampoo's ranging from (AF, CG, Meg's, EZ & some other brands) & the only other shampoo that I found amazing was the CG glossworkz but the value is not as good compared to the Britemax clean max.

 

Maybe we can either make this thread a sticky & folks can review or leave a brief description about the shampoo's that they use within this topic.

 

So don't be shy guys n gals  next time you're doing a wash & using a shampoo (be it a just purchased product new or old) please give it a review on here to help out folks  Be nice to see other peoples opinions & recommendations on what shampoo they use & how they rate it.

Megs soft wash gel is my current shampoo

Smells like almonds 

Foams lovely 

And leaves the surface slick without stripping lsp 

 

Will be going onto megs mirror bright shampoo next wash (next week) which has been getting rave reviews 

 

Also tried megs wash and wax very handy if in a rush and smells nice 

 

Gold class so so smell good foam left surface very slick and non stripping properties 

 

Megs nxt shampoo can't describe the smell but chemically 

Good foam and contains polymers 

 

As you can guess i am a meguiars fan 

The britemax shampoo is one of my favorites, along with Defintive Wax & Dooka Wash. 

 

Britemax is one of the slickest shampoos I've ever used. Stephen ( Samuir1974) swears by the stuff too! 

Car looks great btw - stunning results from you detailing and product selection.

 

As Karl has said - i've been a big fan of the Britemax Cleanmax for a long long time.

 

The Britemax range is very underrated indeed. Fortunately Simon at iShine stocks them locally for me.

 

Most recent shampoo i tested was in the Xmas calendar selection - Dooka Wash and it was very very good also.

Dooka wash, ODK, (EZ supercharger I've used but definitely want more) & BH Auto Wash will be my next purchases to try out, you can never have enough shampoo & with summer fast approaching, you've got to always have a clean motor   

Dooka Wash, Gtechniq Gwash and Autofinesse Lather all excellent....nice and slick, pH neutral, free rinsing with no silly gloss enhancers/waxes left behind.....oh and all smell good too.

 

cheers

I used Britemax Cleanmax on maintenance washes and the benefits of polymers/enhancers.

 

Just ordered some Car-Chem 1900:1 bulk for the summer season - see how it goes...

TBH I never really thought about the Shampoo, I have always used Autoglym shampoo/conditioner.

Would the Britemax be noticeably better at the job over the AG ?

I think AG shampoo is actually very good - dont see much point changing if you are happy?

 

I'm testing CarChem based on its great dilution ratio and low costs (£20 for 5L)....primarily.

 

I keep going back to BH Auto Wash.  We're in a hard water area so I use 2 tsp per big bucket but it suds up nicely - enough to make washing slick but not too much that you end up with water marks.

 

BH Auto Wash and BSD are my current go to products for a maintenance wash on the Superb but on my wife's Deep Impact blue Fiesta CG Citrus Gloss shampoo and CG Speed Wipe work really well together.  CG products are always nose pleasing too

First test and impressions on the Car-Chem Shampoo - BRILLIANT!

Great dilution ratio, very slick..... maybe not as sudsy as i would like;

but overall something i will use more of - especially at the price.

 

(£19.99 for 5L plus P&P - special offer started at Easter bank holiday)

Washed the vRS on Sunday & used EZ Superchargerd Hyper shampoo, forgot how good this stuff is  It foams up well, proper sudsy too & its very slick, I used around 1oz in the wash bucket  good job I ordered a 1 litre bottle during the EZ Easter sale so got enough to last me. Definitely will use again & again.
