    I haven't used many different soaps either. Whenever I buy, I go for the gallon size.

    I still have a case of "Boyd Coddington" shampoo that I picked up sometime back. It is what I use mainly for customer maintenance washes. Probably originated at Chemical Guy's?
    Gold Class, Hi Temp and a local distributor brand is also in my shop. PB Spray&Wipe touchups on my rides.

    CG supper suds II was my go to soap for ages. Fantastic suds. I ended up picking up 1z glanz car wash soap in 10L. I am now about 2/3rds of my way through Glanz wash. and i love it. It's not as foamy as cg super suds II but i honestly believe it cleans better, wile working really well with my 1z sealants and waxes.

    What made you go for the Glanz wash over 1z Perls/Raindance?

    Simple,

    Pearls is a lubrication car wash. I have ONR for that. I wanted a foaming car wash for my foam canon.

    ONR is my goto car wash. I use this 90% of the time in my detailing business. Being mobile I don't have to carry as much water and I love the results I get with it.

    I use alot of ONR. I really like Duragloss 901 and TWplatinum Car shampoo.

    Both of those have great suds and lube.

    I'm currently using Duragloss but I have some 1Z pearls on the way. Can't wait to try it.

    Duragloss 901 is my current soap of choice. It works very well.

    I got a sample about a year ago of FK 118 SC soap and remember loving it, IIRC it was better than any soap I've used.

    ONR gets used in the winter in the heated garage.
