What PH neutral soap is everyone using these days?

Honestly 15 years ago I think he helped a lot of people get over their fear of machine polishing

Then he kind of fell off my radar

The next time I saw anything his content had gotten weird, at least compared to the earlier videos

Fast forward a few years and the next time I saw anything it was all guns and stuff and he had turned into the guy from The Matrix

Too far out there for my simple mind

Oh yeah…

I get it

He had some very controversial ideas and thoughts on products and processes

I don’t have a lot of use for “ my way or the highway” guys

Back on topic, I have a half gallon of Megs Gold Class on hand because it’s what I always used for years and that jug is several years old

I was looking on line at a local parts store that is nationwide and they show Adams blue shampoo and Griots Brilliant Shine so there are a few local OTC options for the future if I am looking for neutral PH

I'm not a fan of the Griots Brilliant Shine. It's not a bad soap, but it isn't great either. I like Optimum Car Wash and Hyperwash much better.

You might want to check the condition of the Gold Class if it is fairly old. When I still used the stuff I found it would thicken up with age which made it harder to dilute in the wash bucket and it seemed to become even more difficult that normal to rinse off.

I will keep that in mind and will get another product to have on standby if this fails, probably the Adams blue soap

I am in week 3 of trying to get enough detailing supplies to go forward with a deep cleaning on the car and my daughter is letting me use their driveway when the time comes and my son in law is letting me use my old pressure washer that I gave him when we sold our house 2 years ago

I am waiting on the 3rd try by the largest river company to send me some mitts, brushes, etc and I have my fingers crossed

It sucks that in the largest city in Alaska I can't get quality detailing supplies, it's all TW OTC type stuff

We are battling the weather here and have already had mornings in the mid 30s, although we do get some lovely mid October days that are less wintery

I am running out of time
 
Ooh, I forgot about one more soap I'd like to also try next: Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Pure Wash.

Its not as economical as Hyperwash but its sounds likes its a no nonsense pure wash as the name implies.

Based on the conditions you describe, the Griots would work OK and most likely be much better than the OTC TW-like stuff you find at the big-box stores. In a pinch I think it would serve just fine. I didn't realize availability was that bad or I might have softened my statement a bit. If I was in your position and had to buy something off the self in a local store vs ordering on-line, I'd get it.

I have no experience with the Adams product and can't saw whether it is batter/worse than your other options.

I have seen a number of "best soap" videos and Adams seems to generally get favorable reviews although I generally take "Best Of ..." videos with a grain of salt

I will just grab a bottle of each at the parts store and cover my bases

I tried ordering Hyperwash along with my other stuff but the package never made it to the USPS much less headed towards Alaska, despite being "shipped" twice

As stated I am on my third try at getting supplies and the Hyperwash wasn't shipped with the other things I ordered that have supposedly been shipped

I need to bite the bullet and just cross the evil "A..zon" off my list of suppliers as their shipping to Hawaii over the past year and now their shipping to Alaska has gotten 99% flaky

How is 3D Pink?
Click to expand...

Although I haven't tried it, I have heard nothing but good about it as a maintenance wash

It is on my list to try

I believe their Nano Pail car soap is the same as Pink soap, just super condensed
 
3D Pink is quite a good soap especially when used with a foam gun. If the car isn’t too dirty, I can even get away with a touchless wash by just spraying it on,letting it dwell, and rinsing it off. It has never let me down

I am going to try Hyper Wash though and if it can perform at least as equally I’ll be quite pleased.

You'll like HyperWash.....check out you local Harbor Freight for the best price around on it
 
I’m going to visit Harbor Freight as soon as I finish my jug of 3D Pink. I’ve been satisfied with everything I’ve ever bought there.
