Citrus Wash Daily, Maxi Suds, and Zymol Clear

If I'm doing a LSP Strip, Citrus Wash and Clear, set at 1oz product to 1gal water.

I ordered two gallons of each Majestic Solutions Ultra Gloss & Super Foam. I placed the order last night real late and since they are a small I figured they would take a little bit longer to ship. I was pleasantly surprised when I got tracking information an hour ago.

I just got the exact same last weekend. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Very nice. What dilution are you using it at? Do you use a foam cannon, foam gun? What other soaps have you used? Tracking says it'll be here Saturday!

I got the Autogeek branded foam gun when they last had their 15% off sale. As for amounts, I'm still experimenting, but safe to say I only add a little bit of the yellow foamer to the ultra gloss. It's all down to personal preference, and what will work the best with your equipment and settings.

Dilution ratios aren't really personal preference in my mind. Sure a slight difference. I'm speaking in terms of having a LSP safe solution. I guess I need to call Majestic Solutions to see what they say. My guess is probably 2-3 oz of soap in the foam cannon with 30 oz of water like most soaps. Probably 1 oz of soap per gallon in the bucket for the Ultra Gloss.

This thread is making me want to spend a few hours detailing my car. Maybe I'll head over to chemical guys after work here and see what they recommend for me for a nice soap wash and swirl remover.

Yeah they're local here in town to me. My buddy buys his detailing stuff from them and would let me borrow some when we had car shows together. Good stuff. Tried some spray detailer and some tire stuff from him and loved it. Been meaning to go there for a couple of years but never get around to it. I'll ask for freebies if I head over today and see what I get haha

Adam's Car Shampoo...smeels great (like Cherries) and makes a CRAZY amount of suds for the car...amazing product

works wonders with a foam gun if you have one

Just looked up the location and it's about two blocks from my work on the way home! Perfect for me so I'll be stopping by after work today for sure.

Well, I should have a review of the MS soaps by early next week. From what I hear from everyone that has used it is that it is the best stuff out there. I like the fact they are a small place as well. The pricing is great on their products, shipping is expensive but just order enough product to make it worth it. I'm used to spending $50 a gallon the DP Xtreme Foam Shampoo so this is cheap!

After driving around in circles I finally found chemical guys. Inside a moneygram store in a "Mexican mall". Hard to explain the place but anyways. ...

Ended up buying a few things.

Scratch + swirl b-gone
Shines + II
Citruswash + gloss
Smart dressing
And got a free microfiber towel on top of a discount.

Have to go back and get some sealant and spray detailer when it's back in stock next week and they move to a bigger store since this spot is temporary. Going to spend some time tomorrow morning using this stuff on the car and hopefully get some swirls out

Are you not interested in buying stuff online?

Are you going to invest in a PC7424? If not, good luck with any sort of effective swirl removal.. I also hope you are going to invest into some high quality microfiber towels. :popcorneat:

I'll buy stuff online if I have to. They usually have a lot more product in stock besides the stuff they had today from what my friend said. I've actually been looking at that pc for a couple of weeks. Just trying to find the best deal on one. And that was a free towel from them. I use some better quality microfiber towels than what he gave me for the car. Thing that sucks is when I first bought the car I knew nothing about washing/detailing and was stupid enough to dry it with a regular towel. Wish I could go back in time and spend the time and money really detailing and caring for the car and paint like I try and do now.

Sorry to be o/t but those Monster microfiber towels from Chemical Guys are super nice. Plus if you're local you dont have to pay shipping.

Other than that. I like PakShak towels ultraplush, ultrasmooth and waffleweaves and Poorboys deluxe Mega towels.
