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

Optimum no Rinse and Meguiar's Gold Class for dirtier washes.

I'm happy with Adam's car shampoo.

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?

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

mfbmike 10-24-2013 11:36 PM

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.

Would any microfiber cloths do?

How do I "thank" you guys, I can't seem to find the button

Not all microfibers are created equal.

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.
