SON1C Synopsis 48 brings you Auto Finesse Lather Car Soap
null_zps66bf353e.jpg

I was skeptical about the Auto Finesse brand, prior to Lather I had zero experience with the line outside of online research.
First impressions with the bottle in my hand... Quality, the label, container, the finish, the top, the soap viscosity, the smell, I thought this seems like a top notch product, the stock photos did not do it justice imo

What the soap is supposed to do.. Clean the vehicle, provide great lubricity, not interfere at all with any LSP's on the vehicle

So my first thoughts, possibly a great maintenance soap

Suggested dillution ratio -> 2-4 caps and online it posts a 1:2000 ratio

I went middle of the road and poured 3 capfuls in

Smell? Oddly reminds me of a bubble bath? Lol

Suds? Great suds

Lubricity? High, impressed here!

Washed the entire vehicle with the soap, impressed with its performance

Overall I'd say this is an awesome product and look forward to working with it even more, if you're on the fence about the Auto Finesse line and or this soap -- Lather --> I'd definitely recommend trying it out!

After washing the vehicle I performed an IPA wipe down and applied Son1c Wax 43

i LOVE the first picture lol it just fits the name of the product so well!!
 
Good job Drew! Those suds are crazy. I take it you just did the 2BM?

Ill have mine up tomorrow!
 
How's the clean ability on this? I've tried several products from auto finesse and have been impressed
 
Thanks for the write up! This will probably be my first AF product as well.

Interesting. Thanks for the review! I was curious about this shampoo myself. :dblthumb2:



I wonder how this product stacks up to Migliore Naturale?

Migliore Naturale Shampoo, all natural shampoo, car wash, auto shampoo

Might have to pick up a bottle of Lather on my next order and do a "Vs." review. :props:

I would love to hear your input on them stacked against each other, I personally have no experience with the megliore soap

It's definitely solid cleaning ability, if I had a filthy vehicle I'd go to my tried and true citrus wash and gloss but for maintenance washes this is an awesome product, will update when I get a chance to use it on a filthy vehicle

Son1c, do you prefer this over CG Honeydew?
Click to expand...
I have only used honey dew in a foam cannon, and its phenomenal in a foam cannon (honey dew)

I would take Lather over mr.pink
 
I have used this a couple times around 1:500 dilution. No complaints on slickness and cleaning ability. If you are suds fan, the suds are modest. Given what I used it on, I cannot say it added much glossiness. Rinsing is at the top.
 
Great review, Sonic! I'm on the fence with this product. Have you washed a dirtier car since this review? Did the suds last through the entire wash?
 
I guess I ll need to order some AF Lather , looks like the thing to have .

Thank you!
I have, but it was after foaming, so not the same, I will say lather is a bit of a bust in the foam cannon, but I don't think it was designed for it as chemical guys honey dew snow foam was? I'm not certain it was but with a name like that it's hard to imagine otherwise
Yes the suds lasted through the entire wash, our of habit I jet them once in awhile
Will update with foam pics either tomorrow or Tuesday

Can't comment much on glossiness either, didn't may much attention to it as I had a carnauba wax to apply! I believe I applied rubbish boys after I used it in this review
 
Another great review, keep them coming!

I plan to get the 5 liter of Lather as soon as I run out of my gallon gold class I have.

I read that they released a new formula of this product. Can anyone confirm this?
