Poorboy's CarWash is ridiculously

rabbi

The Whaler Loves Detail City
slick. My car has been sitting out in the sun all day. I wanted to try Poorboy's Carwash under this condition. First I filled up a bucket with rinse water and soaked my mitt in that. Then I poured a half ounce of Poorboy's AutoWash in my soap bucket. I blasted the soapbucket with a jet stream of water. The suds exploded immediately. I had about a half a gallon of water in the bucket before the suds overflowed the top. Now I'm paying attention to how the the suds last.I took the mitt from the rinse bucket and dipped into the suds. I started on the roof and worked my way down. I noticed right away how the mitted glided acrossed the surface. With the sufaces being hot I made sure to use plenty of water to rinse the soap off. Once I got to the sides if I put any pressure at all on the mitt it wanted to take off. I lost my balance the first time I leaned into it. I agitated the bucket only one other time. Not out of neccessity but because I LIKE SUDS. After the car was completely washed and rinsed I flooded it with water. The water refused to stay on the car. The sheeting action was exceptional (it has 4 coats of EX-P). With the temperature as it is/was(HOT!) I did not stand there and watch/beg every stream to roll off. ALL I did was wind the hose up and began to dry with a WaffleWeave fromP.A.C. For the amount of time it took me to wind up the hose(45 seconds,I timed it) and begin drying. The car had very little water on it. There were no pools and the water still on the car was running downhill. Overall impression. This is the best carwash I have used to date. The lubricitity(did I spell this correctly?) is outstanding. Enormous amount of suds and they have lasting power. Rinses off well. I will use up my Sonax Gloss Shampoo and BMW carwashes then go with Poorboy's CarWash when it hits the market. Again Poorboy's will put a quality product on the market.
 
thanks for the review Rick.:D




..but you did keep it away from the Whaler as instructed :lmfao :rolling

Any idea when it will be available?

Trying to work out pricing, labels and instructions, but may have a pre-release with my Original Paper Labels:D

Don't get me wrong, I literally have gallons of car wash sitting around, BUT with all these PRE-pre-release reviews going around, I'm starting to feel a bit left out of this new and exciting Poorboy's product :wait Slap some labels on and make the announcement already :shift

Rabbi, you could have left out the part about the new wash being able to move around Sonax to the top of your car wash product list. :-p
 
Don't you need a northwest tester?
The conditions must be different up here.

(And my megs soap is almost gone)

J/K :D I'll buy it when it's out.
I don't care what the label looks like.

And it is going to be called 'Wonder Wash' Right?
Thank you very much.

We did have a tester up that way 91Lsman ...

one is the South/West desert

one in the South..GA

one in the Mid/West Ohio, PA

a few here in the East

and a few no one knows about;)


yeah I figured no one really will care about the label to start with and i guess those will become collectors....but writing the instructions is always a real PITA...

the name is still up in the air:dunno ...may just stick with Boss's suggestion and just call it Poorboy's Car Wash ....but that will and can be changed if needed.

it's great to hear so many people are interested, and Kent this was not meant to be a tease or hype, just people letting me know how it worked under their test conditions.
This is not our first round with a car wash and many testers like some of the early ones, but as it was said to me:rolleyes:, " if it's not better than what i'm already using, I'm not switching":dunno
 
Mr. Clean, Last week BMW replaced Sonax Gloss Shampoo as my favorite. This week it's Poorboy's AutoWash. Who knows maybe next week it'll be a Gallon of Poorboy's Autowash.:dunno
 
91Lsman: Hook me up. I'm almost out and don't want to buy anything else.

Poorboy: Even us newbies don't need directions for car wash.
Put out a few for us and keep developing the label and instructions, etc.

Obviously some of us would buy it right now.
You can even change the price later. I don't care. I'm just almost out of soap.

Yeah, yeah, that’s the ticket... Poorboy’s Car Wash. Straight forward and to the point. Now let’s get to the label making. :lol

I know it wasn’t MEANT to be a tease…but it worked.

Seriously Steve, I think everyone appreciates the time and patience you put into the research of new products. It is a formula that obviously works, as I can’t think of a Poorboy’s product that hasn’t/doesn’t deliver as advertised (oops I forgot you don’t advertise)

Correct me if I’m wrong, but haven’t I read that BMW’s private label car wash is Sonax?

I can see a gallon, or two of Poorboy’s car wash in your future.
;)

Rabbi and I heard the same thing. That's why we conducted a head to head comparison. Our test results showed that Sonax Gloss Shampoo and BMW Autoshampoo are NOT the same formula. Of course that doesn't discount the possibility that Sonax might still be the manufacturer of the BMW wash. See this thread for more details -

Sonax Gloss Shampoo
 
rabbi,

BTW............. nice review! It really is nice stuff....................... isn't it! :bigups
 
hmmm....i remember seeing on www.nts7.com on the top right of the homepage that states they develop products for BMW and other European Mfgrs and when you click the link for the shampoo it says it is developed by Sonax....interesting
 
Boss, it really is. ARE YOU BUYING SOME OF THIS "STUFF"? LOL! I was so impressed with Sonax Gloss shampoo for the past year. Then Marj swapped some of her BMW for some of my Sonax for a side by. I thought the BMW was better(much to my surprise). Now I tried Poorboy's today and it's even better than the BMW. I'm so hooked on the Plat's combo of Ultimate Carwash Shampoo+ UPC+Vanilla Moose+ UPP on my wife's metallic silver that I'll always have a bottle or two of Plat's carwash. Once my others are gone Poorboy's will be my main one and Plat's for when I do the"Ultimate Combo." Although I do have to try 1Z Perls.:lmfao :beat :crazy

Yes I am.......................... here's why: By the time Steve comes up with a name, and finds a label for it, I will be out of Sonax! :lmfao
