Some reviews for some products I have recently used.

Extreme Body Wash and Synthetic Wax

Source: sample from a trade

Scent/Color: Grape / reddish more than purple
Dilution: Used 1 oz to 3 gallons (never use as diluted as CG)
Foam: Moderate frothy airy suds. Suds did not really build in rinse bucket. I have a water softener.
Cleaning: Very good
Rinsing/Drying: Very good
Slickness: Very good
Gloss: Seems to have some added gloss but I was topping it anyway

Summary: It cleaned and rinsed well. The least sudsy CG soap I have used but not saying that is a negative.

Poorboy's QD+ Quick Detailer with Carnauba

Source: Freebie from Poorboy's
Scent: Grape? / Purple
Ease of applicaton/removal: Very good
Added slickness: Very good
Shine: Very good

Summary: It seemed like a nice detail spray. It did not standout in any one category but solid performer. The scent was a definite plus.


Wolfgang Black Oynx Tire Gel

Source: Sample from AG order

Scent/Color: Coconut ? / white
Consistency: gel
Spread: No issues using brick foam applicator. A little can go a long way.
Look: Crisp black slight sheen

Summary: This was a little of a surprise. It spreads like it is oily (little can go a long way) and left the tires crisp (lettering stands out) and black with a slight sheen. My usual favorites include Optimum Opti-Bond and the tire looked less "coated". It did not look natural any more than another tire dressing but definitely different.
 
I have the CG Extreme Wash & Wax EWW
It is very good and economical to buy in gallon
Make sure u shake well b4 use.
 
Great reviews Al. I always had a problem with PB QD+. For some reason it always streaked on me.

Interesting. I really did not see much streaking as long as you use a little and let it age. I do see some detail sprays want a light touch when buffing to prevent transfer back if using one towel for both spreading and drying.

The mister on the sample bottle made it easy to limit product and this could be a variable as well.
