Review: McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula Shampoo
McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula Auto Shampoo
Description: (Taken from Autopia`s website)
Does more foam create a cleaner vehicle? It does if it comes from McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula Auto Shampoo.
This high yield foaming auto shampoo bursts into mounds of suds when introduced to water and agitated. The bubbles work to encapsulate oily residue and dirt even before your mitt touches the paint. This rich foam - combined with our own advanced cleaning agent- leaves your vehicle looking and feeling fantastically clean and bright.
When blasted through a foam gun, McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula is at its best because it’s the only car shampoo formulated for foam guns. The high soap to water ratio produced by a foam gun allows this intense shampoo to produce FROTHY FOAM unlike any shampoo you’ve used before. The high viscosity of McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula allows the suds to cling to the vehicle in order to begin grabbing dirt and oil on contact. With the help of a soft, clean sponge or mitt, you’ll achieve an Xtreme clean with this super-sudsing car wash.
A lot of soaps can clean, but they can’t leave the kind of shiny, smooth finish created by McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula. McKee`s 37 proprietary cleaning agent builds thick, multi-tiered bubbles that work to lift dirt and grime off the surface of the vehicle. Though it contains effective cleaning agents, McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula is pH-balanced to retain the existing paint protection. McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula leaves waxes and sealants intact while removing the dirt and debris that hide your vehicle’s shine.
Water softeners in McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula help offset the effects of hard water so your vehicle dries with fewer water spots. These softening agents also allow the shampoo to achieve its full foaming potential.
Since most swirls are introduced during the wash process, our rich, foam formula contains an xtreme amount of lubricants and beneficial oils. These lubricants wrap around dirt and suspend it just above the paint surface, where it cannot scratch the paint. The oils nourish the paint to deepen the color and enhance the shine.
McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula has a clean, fresh mint fragrance plus a bright green color to compliment its fluffy, white suds. CLEAN looks and smells like this.
Enjoy the rich, fragrant lather of McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Formula in your foam gun or wash bucket.

Introduction:
Do you like washing your car often? Do you have a foam gun and want to know what`s the best foaming car shampoo out there? Do you want to use a car shampoo that produces very thick lather and suds? If you are wondering about these then you came to the right place! These are common questions one may ask because majority of people like to wash our cars especially us detail geeks (or Autogeeks!).
Review:
I`d like to start this review by showing you the before condition of the subject vehicle.
As you can see, the car I`m about to use and test this shampoo on is extremely filthy. It has water spots, dirt, and bird poop everywhere. This is a good candidate to see how well this product works.
Here`s a picture of the product description and directions:
The directions say to use 2-3 oz of shampoo for every 5 gallons of water. I was planning to only use approximately 3 gallons of water so I decided to use 2 oz of the car shampoo.
Here`s a closer look to show the color of the shampoo:
When I create my soapy wash solution, I like to pre-fill my wash bucket with about 1 gallon of water. I would then add the car shampoo into the bucket as shown:
To activate the suds, I then blast the bucket with water.
Now your wash bucket solution is ready for use.
Next, I wanted to test out how well it works in the foam gun using their recommended dilution. The directions state to use 2 oz of shampoo for every 6-8 oz of water in the foam gun.
First, fill up your foam gun container with the proper amount of water. This is a very important step. You must always put water first. If you add the soap first, adding the water later will suds up the solution and make the container overflow with lather very quickly. You don`t want that.
Next, add the proper amount of soap. I was in a rush so I just tried to eyeball the proper dilution ratio.
Once you put in the right amount of shampoo, put the cover in and make sure to give your foam gun a good shake:
Connect the foam gun to your hose sprayer attachment and set the siphoning ratio in the foam gun. In my case, I set it to "E" or the most concentrated setting.
The foam gun has multiple uses. It can be used to pre-soak your car to loosen up all the dirt particles before washing. You can also use the foam gun to wash your car. This is not only for paint but also for the wheels, tires and wheel wells.
Here are a few action shots of the McKee`s 37 Xtreme Foam Shampoo used to pre-soak the vehicle:
