    may or may not have talked about but...
    Iron X Soap Gel: I smell like IronX, instead go buy pure IronX imo
    Prima Mystique: NO SUDS WUT, its slick but it doesnt have the coconut smelling slickness that lusso has. Will not buy another and will use the rest for my clean my rims/wheels bucket.
    Swissvax Microfluffy: Very Very Very thick and fluffy, highly recommended for wax buffing. Expensive yes, but its worth every darn penny with its thickness.
    Prima Nero: Surprisingly awesome dressing, some real nice shine with it when used in the drowning way.
    Prima Hydro: Need not say more, buy it
    P21S TAW: Buy it too, this is in the god like region, I will order this in gallons soon (tm)
    My Hand: Best wax applicator, just need to have more wax on the palms for perfect hand wax finish.

    all can be bought online except my hand :D

    ps Gtechniq G1 = no need to clean the darn glass with anything but soap, and by the time you're done all water would of already slid off of the glass.

    Nice review. I also feel the same about Prima Mystique, i was very disapointed with the lack of suds. I have a gallon of it because i thought it would be better than my normal wash, Adams.

    havent tried it yet, I did actually try the Swissvax Quick Interior Finish though! It doesnt leave any extra gloss or anything and is pretty spray n wipe inside. Quite nice. I did spray n wipe with APC before hand as its more of a dresser than cleaner.

    I got it from Troy

    I seriously expected it to be a lot better. thank god I always get small bottles before the gallons. I do have Prima Hydro in Gallons as its a really nice spray wax with a nice smell.

    I do have Hydro and Nero in Gallons. Because i was happy with them i thought buying Mystique was a good buy, guess not! I dont think it is horrable but i would much rather use Adams or CG supersuds

    How would you compare P21 TAW to OPT Power clean?

    both are great I would lean more towards Power Clean.

    You guys are right about Mystique and sudsing. It doesn't produce a bucket of suds. What it does do, however, is clean really, really well. When the wife's Suburban has gone too long between washes, I reach for Mystique. It is the only soap in my stash that will clean caked on winter road grit with one pass.

    I'm just saying, don't give up on Mystique because it doesn't produce a copious amount of suds. It's actually a great cleaner.

    well I have been using it for rims washing and it does actually pull quite a bit of stuff out there so yes it is quite the cleaner but i'm too much of a sud person lol

    mmmm and Prima Nero does not fend off heavy rain very well it seems. Kinda lost most of its look after driving to and from campus.

    Do you recommend the spray over the shampoo because the gel makes you smell like ironX or do you think the spray is more effective?

    the spray is more effective, soap gel in my opinion is too dilute for the average havent clayed in a while jobs. Its prob good for say maintenance where theres minimal contamination and likely not eaten in but otherwise spray spray spray
