Finally washed my car.

I finally got to wash my cars after 2 months. The last time I did anything to my cars(late November) I put Poorboy's SuperSuds +PwC+VM+EX-P+Souveran Paste+Liquid Souveran on mine and Ultimate Carwash Shampoo+UPC+VM+UPP+Pinnacle's Paste Glaz+Natty's.Well today I washed the cars with Poorboy's SuperSuds.I used one ounce in a five gallon bucket. Like most carwashes the suds erupted when it was hit by the jet stream of water. Unlike most(if not all) carwashes the suds lasted throught the entire washing of both vehicles. I think one ounce(I actually measured) is too much. Even after all the carwashes and times that I've used them I still have a hard time determining how much to put in the bucket. On with the critique. last year at this time I 18/23 coats of UPP on my car and 15/18 coats of UPP on my wife"s. I started my "Winterization Protection Program" in the middle of November last year. Well this year for several reasons I didn't have time to put my"Winterization Protection Plan" in to action. I had to apply more pressure today to get off all the dirt while last year the dirt seemed to slide off. I could tell my cars had more something(sealant/protection) on them last year. The SuperSuds did an outstanding job of getting off the dirt. Although I had to apply more pressure to get the dirt off at no time did I have to really lean into it. The suds and dirt rinsed off well and when the cars were completely rinsed they had cleaned up very nicely. After being dried my car has a very nice shine and the suface does have some slickness.. My wife's car which is silver looks sharp. hopefully in the next couple days I can put a sealant or two on them and add some wax. SuperSuds is a very good carwash shampoo. It is my favorite carwash shampoo to date. Rick

Thanks for all of the valuable information. I too have found that my cars wash-up easier in the winter with just UPP and no topper. I love UPP topped with Nattys, but after some experimenting last fall and a few winter time washes. the dirt almost slides off the vehicle with only UPP. So it is UPP X 3 for the winter and UPP X 2 plus Nattys X 2 for the summer.
I will have to get my hands on some of that SuperSuds!
