I agree about the gloss of Duragloss and Sour Power. They are the best I've seen yet for adding gloss but I'm not sure which one added more. It had been a good deal of time between using the two for me.

Jim did a very good one. (Linked by Dwayne)
It's a funny thing I haven't reviewed some of my very favorite products. With Ultima it's like I feel I can't do them justice or maybe I'll be biased... Been thinking about reviewing both Ultima Trim and Tire Guard as well as Ultima Paint Guard wash for a long time. I was actually about to write a review for UTTG about a year ago and then Jordan did one so I just put it off.
I think I'll put that together in a couple months. Maybe a UPGW a month after that.
Jim (Dr. Oldz) and I have a special combination review that will slowly be put together and should be something different from the norm when we post...

Does the Optimum Car Wash smell the same as the Optimum No Rinse?

I do not know about the new version but not like the prior version which was fairly neutral.

Regardless if you feel you can't do them justice etc I still would love the reviews! Me, as well as the whole forum knows how you are with Ultima products, yet I don't see many reviews of them from ya! :nomore:
I'd like to see what you and Jim put together as well! :xyxthumbs:

Optimum is one of my favorites. One of the top performers in all qualities that one is looking for and it has a dilution ratio of .5oz per gallon (per Dr G). So it is very economical as well. It is Bunky's favorite (I believe). One interesting fact that I have found about OPT is that it works wonderfully in direct sunlight. I know we shouldn't wash in the sun but there are times it's unavoidable. It doesn't dry as quickly as others and allows you to wash a panel or two b4 rinsing.

It does smell good indeed but I found it's cleaning ability to be sub-par and the lubricity is too good either.

I think this is the key right here. I'll be the first to admit, I'm guilty of this with optimum. In my mind, they could do know wrong. However, I've recently tried other products that I like better than optimum. It's not something I wanted to believe, but it's the truth. I'm NOT saying that you're not spot on with praising ultima products as they are great, but, being biased can distort things at times. Again, I'm guilty of this.
