    Oh perfect car shampoo, where are you?

    I've been through a few different brands of car shampoo but can never really find one that I like and can stick to. I find myself getting hyped up about shampoos as most people do with LSPs. In my opinion, having a high quality soap is more important than an LSP. LSP's, to me, are secondary as...
