Currently have Auto Finesse lather and Poorboys Superslick. Both excellent. Once they run out I'm going to give Dodo Juices born to be mild a go.

I recently tried Britemax and whilst I agree it's slick, I'm not convinced of it's cleaning power. Current fave is Duragloss 901. Just can't find the 64oz in stock anywhere.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I like the Meguires Car shampoo. It's Bright yellow and smells and suds up with very little amount.

I use meguires nxt. Leaves a fairly good beading effect on its own and dont need to use too much so a bottle lasts a while.

Britemax clean max is also good,  smells great too!

I currently use Megs Gold Class.

Anyone used both of Megs shampoo's? Is NXT better than gold class?

I personally like Chemical Guys Citrus Wash & Gloss, and also like Zaino Z-7.

I think the yellow NXT lasts longer, but also the Zaino stuff is also another good shout.

I thought the NXT shampoo was purple? Never seen a yellow version?
