Best soap to use? FRS
Hey, I was wondering what soap you guys use to wash your cars with?
For years I've been driving around beaters that I never washed lol |

I'd like to thank everyone for the kind responses.
For anyone reading this thread now, feel free to give your input. P.S I forgot to add to my question, what would you guys recommend I use for the wheels? Last edited by CyberAkuma; 10-24-2013 at 10:17 PM. |

2 bucket method and for initial soap soak I use foam cannon and most consistent success which chemical guys soaps. Completely snows the car and does a real nice job. 2 bucket method and good products are only way to go IMO.
Wheels? = P21 awesome stuff

Sonax wheel cleaner is pretty extraordinary stuff.
Yes, 2 bucket method with grit guards are a must. |

I use Meguiar's Gold Class. Doesn't work great with a foam lance though, so I'll probably be getting something else for that.

The ones I've gotten from @DetailersDomain are way softer than anything you find over the counter at an Autozone or wherever. I stocked up on a ton the last time their microfibers were a deal of the day. lol. |
