Favorite Readily Available Car Wash

Did a quick wash yesterday to test out the Griots. It didn't suds as much as I would've liked but it did seem to stay on the paint. The car wasn't dirty so I cannot judge it's cleaning power but using fk425 as my drying aide, the drying process finished beautifully and perhaps a bit slicker then with some of the other products I've recently tried. Probably need a couple more times using it to really evaluate the product but my early assessment is very positive. IMHO, not sure it's any better then the Optimum and I still like the Ultima product the best.



Something to also look out for is the dilution rate...Griot's still uses the old school, 1 oz-to-1 gallon dilution rate.

IIRC, and I might be wrong here, they used to recommend a stronger mix. I use about 1oz./gal. in my wash bucket, but then 90% of my "working shampoo" comes from the foamgun and I suspect I use a pretty potent mix in that (never bothered to calc it... :nixweiss ).
