I used to love BTBM. It's slick and easy to use. Don't need a lot and foams nicely. Where I found it lacking was in cleaning power. I've switched to duragloss 901 and love it. It doesn't feel as slick or as nice to use but I feel it cuts through the grime better.

Not dissing BTBM. It's great to use if you wash your car regularly but for times when you haven't washed the car in months, I'd go for something else.

Yeah. Smells more like calpol and not as delicious as BTBM but I swear it cleans better.

As said dodo juice basics of bling is top notch. Has "wax safe" all over the bottle and seems to do a very good job.  :happy2:

Only point against basics of bling is its inferior dilution ratio compared to BTBM, althought basics of bling is cheaper....
