    Thumbs up

    I found these BMW Autowash few months ago and have dumped autoglym car shampoo for them. Great wash that leaves my car glossy.

    hmmm, maybe ill try that one out. a lot of you seem to be posting on it.

    i notice that it comes with a one gallon refill. can i just buy the one gallon refill, or do i have to buy both. i just wanna get lots, so i wont have to costantly order, and waste money

    I have the regular 4* wash too but haven`t used it yet. It is supposed to be a bit stronger for dirtier cars, made for pro detailers.

    If you want to try the BMW wash out (the one Chee posted)...I have some from the dealer. It`s seems very similar to P21s wash.

    Otherwise, I use Pinnacle Wash or Wolfgang... 4* ultimate wash is good too...just ran out

    Hi Chris, have u ever used sonax? The BMW autowash bottle is identical to sonax 1 liter. I suspect it`s sonax rather than p21s.
    The BMW wash is very sudsy and that`s like what I read in sonax review, I also read that p21s does not have much suds.(correct me if I`m wrong). But USD 7 for a liter,it`s a bargain

    Pinnacle`s wash and Detailer`s Pride are good washes as well. I use the Pinnacle on my car that is washed often. I use the Detailer`s Pride on my wifes car that is only washed about every other week. Both are excellent.

    4* Platinum auto wash is the only one I have used (out of Nxt, Eagle one, Wolfgangs and others) that leaves my car feeling slick - I have hard water and the others don`t seem to work with it - that and it has the most addictive smell

    To answer you question... yes. WG Auto Bathe is WG`s car wash.

    Excellent product, BTW. Just a bit expensive for my taste.

    Just to toss out some ideas in case you want to try different washes, I posted this list (all of which I`ve tried) on the Autopia forum:

    My favorites (best to worst):

    1. Wolfgang (best performance/price, pH=7)
    2. 1Z Perls (excellent, too expensive)
    3. Sonax (excellent, little pricey/hard to find)
    4. Zaino Z-7 (reasonably priced)
    5. Megs GC (easy to find locally)
    6. Eagle One WCW (cheap, sold everywhere)
    7. P21S (lots of suds but that doesn`t mean much)
    8. Megs NXT Wash (cheap, sold everywhere)
    9. Griot`s (nothing special)
    10. Too embarassed to list #10

    hmmm, 4 star n ot on that list? or is it number 10... anyways, i was previously using megs GC, and i have to say, it was pretty good, but slightly on the expensive side for me. i think it was 20 bucks, and i went through it in about a couple months. i guess thats what i get for using like 2 buckets for wash, and 1 for rinse. maybe ill try the zaino, but premium auto care doesnt sell it, do they?

    I`m lucky I have the 10 that I do on the list. My wife thinks I`ve got some sort of disorder with so many car washes and not one of them used up yet. :-p

    PUPP is on my list to try though.

    AFIK, the Zaino store is the only place to get Z-7.
