Yes, good stuff, usually 1 oz. in 4 gallons is what I use. If stripping wax with CWAG us 1 oz per gallon.

Most of their products are pretty darn good as well!

Agreed, the yellow with black satin border are good as well.

If I'm not mistaken CG makes it to we're if you use 1oz per 4-5 gallons you can use it as a wash soap. But if you want to use it as a paint cleaner u use 1oz per 1 gal of water
 
The Citrus Wash and Clear is a great product. I used about .5oz for 2-3 gallons of water. Or more product for stripping waxes.
 
I really like Black on Black (Fade to Black). Once it's applied it's dry to the touch. Isn't slippery or greasy and doesn't seem to attract dirt.

I use it on the plastic step on my nurf bars. Everything else I tried was too slippery and was a hazard to step on. Lasts a pretty long time too.
 
I really like my CG citrus wash and gloss. At the right dilution, you can clean the paint and strip off any remaining protection. It foams great with the foam gun too.

I also like Jetseal109. It's so easy to apply and remove. In addition, it leaves a great shine.
 
Wow. CG has a dizzying array of products. I checked out their website. Lots of stuff. Variations of everything. I like their marketing approach. Kinda raunchy which makes it fun.

I'm gonna have to pick up some of this stuff. They have some nice kits to get started. Everyone talks about Citrus Wash so I'll def pick that up. The butter wax looks fun too, though I don't see much talk about it.
 
I have used Maxi-suds II and really like it, ordered some other stuff to try.

This thread is pretty helpful to see what others like, actually more helpful then their web site. I have a tough time figuring out their product line. In a lot of cases they have 4-5 products that do the same thing, and it's tough to tell the difference from the marketing-speak on their site.

For example -- how does blacklight compare to Jetseal? (and to m-seal) Also, the optical polishes vs. the non-optical?

On the citrus wash & gloss -- I guess that scares me a bit to use as a regular wash. If it strips LSP's at a higher concentration, wouldn't it at least degrade the LSP at a "normal" dillution?

Thanks.
 
That's kind of why I started this thread, not a lot of info outside their site and like you said, a lot of product descriptions carry over and it's difficult to tell what's newer or what's better. It's nice to have feedback from the field vs. a label or website description.

Cool - will post some feedback on what I ordered when it comes in.
 
I recently got some Honey Dew that I'm looking forward to trying out, and the good feedback on their other shampoos has me interested in them, too (and I'm not even all that big on conventional washes... :D)

I'll have to give this a shot, I'm looking for something that isn't slippery. The durability would just be icing on the cake.
