Mixing car wash

The last time I washed my car, I tried Meg Soft wash gel. the wash gel had lots of suds, but did not have the slickness or the cleaning ability of GC. The combo wash, rinsed off without a problem.



I like the suds of the soft gel and the slickness and cleaning ability of GC is all right to mix the two washes?

strange i always get plenty of suds with my CG wash, uess i depends on the water maybe?



Not sure about mixing them, guess it should be ok though?
 
I like to pour a little GC into a bucket and then spray strong water pressure on to the GC. Lots of suds. The water pressure helps to make the GC foam.



good luck
 
Earlier today I mixed some Pinnacle shampoo with GC. I wanted the suds of GC and the stripping action of Pinnacle.
 
Hrmm. I always get good suds with Pinnacle. What stripping action does Pinnacle have? It seems pretty gentle. :nixweiss



I don't see why people are obsessed with suds anyway, it's a biproduct of mixing the soap with the water. As far as I've always read it does nothing "extra" for you.

I feel the same way. Suds look nice and all, but don't do any cleaning or anything. :nixweiss Products like QEW work without suds all together.
 
I've always felt Pinnacle Bodywork shampoo strips wax but makes little suds. GC seems very mild but makes a lot of suds and that is why I mixed the two for this job. Two weeks ago I started to detail a used car I recently purchased. I did the following:



Dawned

Clayed

SMR

MOR



Then the weather got too cold but yesterday was in the 70's so I did this:



GC/Pinnacle Bodywork Shampoo

AIO x 2 with PC

SG



I didn't feel the need to re Dawn or clay but wanted a very good cleaning before the AIO.



BTW this is the first time I did the AIO with the PC and boy was it easy! I will never do this again by hand.
 
Isn't it the suds that float the dirt off the car while washing? Maybe that is just an old wives tale that I heard when I was a kid. :nixweiss All I know is that the amount of suds you get is proportional to the amount of soap you use. One drop won't create the suds as one cap. I've always liked my soap really sudsy. Pinncale seemed to work really well for me. The suds didn't stay quite as long as Gold Class but I do believe that it did the job just as well. :nixweiss
