Wow, those guys at Chemical Guys don't play. I placed my order on Tuesday and got it today. This will be my first experience with their products, I have:



Silk Shine VRT dressing

Butter Wet Wax

ONE Waterless wash

Citrus wash and gloss

Wet Mirror Finish

Synthetic Quick Detailer

50/50 paste wax



Can anybody chime in with your opinions/experience with the above mentioned products?
 
Butter wet wax-Extremely smooth and easy to use. Leaves a great shine...Durability is not great though.

Citrus Wash-Fabulous wash...One of the best out there now.

50/50 Paste-a great paste wax that is in my top 3 for looks.

You know, I've noticed all of the CG stuff smells great! That alone has me anxious to use them. So I see you like 5050 for looks, but how is it's durability and what other two waxes round out your top 3?

silk shine is great stuff..if it is too glossy it is water based so you can thin it down with some h20 if you want a more matte finish....best used on interior...mist tires LIGHTLY with it and you have a great no wipe gloss to them



ONE - awesome stuff...try using it as a clay lube as well...when you wipe away the residue you will be left with and incredible gloss when done claying....



citrus wash n gloss...the BEST soap out their...1/2 oz to 1oz in 2-3 gallons is all you need...works awesome in a foam gun as well



wmf- results seem to be best to top your lsp with it...definitely yields a great wet gloss...



synthetic qd...its their best stuff



5050...great stuff...i get better results wiping on one panel and immeadiately wiping off...

ONE is an awesome waterless wash. I was a little hesitant as I was with ONR. But both have shown to be excellent. ONE is amazing you can clean you car in no time with no marring. It also leaves a high gloss.



Wet mirror finish is one of my favorites. It leaves a brilliant wet gloss and makes metalics pop !!



Synthetic quick detailer leaves a high gloss with no scratching and is incredibly slick.



50/50 is awesome too for me it's right up there with Worlds best wax,Petes 53, Suluster and Souvran.
 
Great choice o nthe Citrus Wash, that stuff is awesome. I personally have two coats of Pete's '53 on my truck and the Citrus Wash gives it that extra slickness and glossy "boost" every single wash. Great stufff.



Let's face it: CG products work very well together.
 
thanks for all the feedback guys, I feel like I made some good choices with these products after hearing what you guys had to say about them. If the wind dies down a bit today, I'll be using the BWW on my neighbors Monte Carlo today. He's seen me in action and decided to have me do his car. It's pretty badly swirled, but he's gonna get it painted by the end of the year so he just wants me to do something to make it look a little better......he's not too terribly worried about the swirls, he just wants it to be glossy and shiny. I'm thinking pink moose followed by BWW and topped off w/WMF.
 
You WILL not be dissappointed with any of thier products.

ONE has a position on my shelf for life, 50/50 does NOT screw around, it is awesome on black!



CG FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I think One is a great product, but since Paul says that it will not show the same results if it is reduced with water, it is not worth the price IMHO. But so many of their products are just fantastic.
