So far I have only tried Sonus Gloss Shampoo. I like it, it works a lot better than the stuff I used to buy over the counter, it doesn`t have many suds to it at all though, not sure if that is a bad thing. Is there something else worth trying? particularly in bulk? My search didn`t come up with much.

NXT wash is my go to OTC wash. Top of the Line`s Bubble Bath is a great bulk wash if you want to order.
Zaino Z7 is my overall favorite, but it`s more expensive than the bulk washes will be.

I second the NXT, great sudding action and it lasts. Doesn`t seem to harsh on LSP either.

TOL, Z7, P21S, and NXT are my favorite soaps.
Still need to try Poorboy`s SSS, but hear it is also great. I enjoyed the Tropi-car wash as well.

NXT or Eagle One WET for OTC car washes.
But Z7 is my absolute favorite!!!:)

Since I have become an Autopia "addict," many of the Griot`s Garage products I used to use have gone by the wayside, in favor of better/less expensive products.
However, their car wash product is still a keeper. Tons of suds, very slippery while washing, and good cleaning properties.
If you buy the gallon size (about 30 bucks I think), you are good to go for quite a while. I wash 2X a week in all but the nastiest weather, and a gallon lasts a year plus.
I even use it (nice and soapy) as a clay lubricant.

Sonax or 1Z Perls here. Both seem nice and mild, clean well and leave a great gloss.

SS&S, GC, NXT, Sonax are all good. I`m currently on Meg`s Hyper Wash and am really liking it.

1Z perls if I have a sealant on the car, or Megs GC if I have carnuba.
I dont like NXT wash, personal preference - Used it on the car once, then de-moted it to wheel duty.

Wow, I got a lot of votes for NXT. Guess i`ll have to give that a try, and I can buy it at the local Autozone so that`s even better.
I like NXT, notice it works much better with warm water than with straight from the hose.

I`m with Hey, Moe on this- Griot`s Car Wash is all ever use any more. Not *too* expensive by the gallon, but the shipping isn`t cheap :o
Very easy on LSPs while cleaning well with great lubricity. Doesn`t seem to have any stripping effect on KSG at all, even after many months of washes.
