ThreeSixT,



Sounds like you've been bit by the 1Z bug! I guess I've been reading a lot of your questions regarding the 1Z stuff lately....



Anyway, about Perls, I can't give you a comparision to the Pinnacle product but I have used 1Z Exclusiv and Mothers California Gold Shampoo. I have to say, I was leary of the cost of the Perls when I first started hearing about it, but once I used it I just kind of forgot about it. This stuff is really worth the extra cost! It doesn't lather up like you would expect a shampoo to but it is very lubricating and cleans grim with a swipe. Once you rinse you'll immediately notice the thousands of tiny "pearls" of water beading up. I like to follow with a final rinse of water with the nozzle removed from the hose. Once you sheet the water off you'll be amazed at the few droplets of water left to dry. To top it off you'll get renewed gloss that makes you wonder if you even dried your car. Even when it is time to wash again, I wet down the car and the beading is still there, so you know you are getting protection.



I never was a big fan of "wash and wax" type shampoos but this is a completely different beast. This shampoo lives up to the promises on the label. I don't even "top" my Glanz with a carnauba although I will use FD to get dust and smudges here and there.



I know I sound super excited but I know you will be pleased if you purchase this product. I think you were wondering about touch-up's with different products and such (1Z forum thread on the differences in the polishes, I think), with this you may not if have to worry with it. :xyxthumbs
 
I think some of the basic shampoos like SONAX or Pinnalce shampoos just excellent and leave a nicer finish, IMO.

Good Lord! How much does the Perls cost if Pinnacle is considered "basic" :eek: ;)



That description of 1Z sounded a lot like #00 to me... :nixweiss

From the Autopia Car Care store: $7.95 for 250 ml. That was the same price as the 500 ml 1Z Exclusiv Shampoo, and I think Sonax was about that much also.

I think the Perls is around $8 for the 250mL size.



The Pinnacle is a fair value in the half gallon size, the pint bottles are getting pretty expensive.



What happened to the 1Z Glanz shampoo???? I don't see it any longer. That is also an excellent shampoo.

I also use Glanz Shampoo. I bought three bottles at detailers paradise for half off. I have started using Glanz Shampoo because of the cost. It works really well.
 
I'm always looking for new products to try out and from all of the reviews that I've read, I think I'm going to try it out. So, my list of products to use when Spring comes is getting bigger. :D

Am I missing something???
 
the glanz shampoo has been replaced by the Perls and will no longer be available soon. i've still got a case of it left though. i suppose i could knock a buck off the price for some interested Autopians though. anyone interested? let me know(15 bottles left).
 
....can't image why they would discontinue such an excellent product as the Glanz shampoo.

It may be the slickest stuff I've ever tried. I really like it.

Now you can imagine how good the perls is, as it replaced the glanz ;)
 
I'd certainly select the Glanz over the Perls. I've used the Perls a couple of times....somehow, someway I was expecting a miraculous occurrence.... :o ...and came a way a bit disappointed.
 
What is "Glanz Shampoo?" I've been using 1Z products for the past two years and I haven't heard of it. I've only seen the Exclusiv Shampoo and the Perls Shampoo.
 
the product I have (recently acquired from David's site, IIRC) is called:



1Z Exclusiv Glanz Shampoo





...it must be the same stuff you have...it's in a silver 1/2L bottle. Great stuff! :up :up
 
My bad....it is the same stuff. I guess it's been a while since I looked at the bottle! All those different German names.....



I love the Exclusiv Glanz also. I bought a few of more of those for my summer and wheel shampoo. I think Detailer's Paradise has a few of those left also if anyone if interested.
