Eating a little crow and carnauba friendly shampoos

This is a bit of a two topic post. The first topic will be me eating a bit of crow :rolleyes: A few months a go I tried PB SS&S and compared it to being less slick than NXT. Well, yesterday as I was getting the buckets for a wash, I saw that old unused bottle of SS&S staring at me and thought, what the heck, I'll give it another try. When I slid my hand into the solution I was really impressed by the slickness and even more as my mitt glided over the car. It had more lubricity than my current favorite WG. I don't know if I didn't add as much shampoo as the directions call for in my first try but this stuff is the slickest of any I've tried ( WG, NXT, GC EO, 4*, etc ). I must have not mixed it into the water very well or been off on my measurement the first time. It was like a different car wash this time.



Now that my snack is done, I'll come to my question. Which shampoos do you all find to be the most carnauba friendly? I have AIO, WG x 2 and DP MaxWax x 3 on the car and want a wash that's gonna keep the carnauba alive as long as possible.
 
I find the most carnauba / sealant friendly products are those that are the most mild. For me, that would be Meguiar's #62 and Meguiar's #00.



I think you'll hear people chime in with Griot's car wash, P21s and 1Z.



If you have DP as a topper, you may want to try their car wash soap and quick detailer as I'm sure they're formulated to work together.
 
Top of the Line Bubble Bath is quite gentle, and in my findings it is quite lubricating and very gentle on UPP (and Paste Glaz), both of which lose their slickness a little bit more each time via NXT Wash or Zaino Z7.
