I do either rinseless with Car Pro ECH2O or the standard two bucket wash depending on how dirty my car is. I’ve used Adams, Gyeon Bathe+ and Meguiars Gold Class car shampoos. Of the three, I prefer Gold Class. It produces a nice shine, makes lots of suds, is readily available at most auto parts stores, and is inexpensive compared to the other two.

Just tried Mr. Pink with foam cannon, worked great! Very happy and will continue to purchase from the Chemical Guys.

Is the foam cannon you guys are talking about a stand-alone system use with garden hose, hook up to pressure washer, hook up to air compressor, or what?

Foam cannons are typically connected to a pressure washer. Foam guns attach directly to a garden hose. Foam cannons generally make more and thicker suds depending on shampoo and water pressure from the machine.

Believe it or not, Ivory Liquid dish soap. No, it doesn't strip the finish like other detergents and really gets the car super clean. Very mild. I've bought countless expensive boutique products and always come back to Ivory. No one can believe it when I tell them and they see how swirl-free the finish on my cars always are. Try it. Super cheap too.
