D-line shampoo

Re: D-line shampoo

I am one of the few who prefers Shampoo Plus over Gold Class. I just like the way the paint looks and feels after a wash in the Shampoo Plus.

Ditto.

I love this soap and it works very well in my pressure washer too.

I too like Shampoo Plus a lot. But I still like the Gold Class also.
Right now, I have Shampoo Plus, Gold Class, UW & W, NXT and Deep Crystal. Depends how I feel. :P
Though, DP and NXT are now mostly used to clean the wheels and wheel wells.

NXT are now mostly used to clean the wheels and wheel wells.

Wow, NXT delegated to wheel wells. Is this because you like it's cleaning ability, or because you don't like it so much on paint?

Don't worry, this is not because that I don't like soap. I like it's cleaning ability, but because I wash my car every week, the LSP don't seem to last as long when I use it this often. This is why I mostly use in for the rims.
When I have to wash a customer car that is really dirty, NXT is still my soap of choice.

#62 and GC are my favorites. IMHO, #62 is the best combination of cleaning ability and lubricity, but I tend to use GC more often due to its availability.

Re: D-line shampoo

Being a "pro" detailer in a fixed location setting, the most important aspect of a shampoo to me is the cleaning capability. I want the shampoo to be able to not only clean the vehicle well, but also be strong enough to strip any protection that might be on the paint. The two shampoo's I like for this are CG Citrus Wash or Stoner Foaming Car Wash.

I've tried the Meg's D-Line shampoos as well as the other Meg's shampoos and I don't feel like any of them have the heavy cleaning capabilities that I look for in a shampoo. If they had one, I would definitely buy it.

That said, if I'm working on my own vehicles or a customer's vehicle that is in for a maintenance service (not a complete detail), I look for a gentle shampoo that isn't going to strip the protection. Meg's Gold Class and the new Ultimate Wash & Wax are both ideal for this application.

Re: D-line shampoo

About three hours ago, I washed my car, and used Shampoo Plus (sample given) and Super Soap. I put it in my custom made foam gun, and at 3:1. Shampoo Plus is great, and smells good too. However, I love the way the Super Soap foams, and can be easily rinsed.

I put the same amount of Shampoo Plus and Super Soap, on the container. Super Soap foamed better, but Shampoo Plus left a bit more slicker finish.

Re: D-line shampoo

I love Super Soap so much I bought a second gallon for only $7.99. My first gallon was $13.99, then every refills after that is only $7.99. I also bought a 1-ounce gallon pump so I can accurately get the most out of this soap.
