Manufacturer Claims:
Maximum Suds is a strong superior cleaning shampoo that delivers amazing cleaning results through a consistent release of foaming bubbles. Maximum Suds is uniquely formulated with foaming technology that works by suspending super polymers within each bubble allowing grime and build-up dirt to be effortlessly rinsed away. The unique lubricity of Maximum Suds loosens abrasive residue and allows it to be rinsed away without scratching the surface. It also retains lubricity and will not allow hard water to remain on the surface hence causing calcium deposits and water spots. Maximum Suds will rinses of clean leaving behind a clean shining surface.
Even though Maximum Suds is tough against paint-damaging agents it is amazingly wax and sealant friendly. It will not strip wax or any type of polymer surface protectants from the surface.

Packaging: I receievd this as a sample from mgm2003. However, from the pictures, the bottle looks to be a rather sturdy, clear bottle, with a fliptop. The print looks a bit small.
Color/Scent/Viscosity: A very thick, pink gel, with no scent
(). Yeah, I wish it had a scent.How I used (as per instructions): Since I didn't have a cap (CG says one capful per gallon), I used 1.5 ounces for 2 gallons of water. This shampoo suds til no end. I actually had to keep a low pressure, steady flood stream in the bucket so the suds didn't over flow. The suds stayed abundant throughout the wash.
I did a standard two bucket method on two different vehicles. I first rinsed with a general jet nozzle. I washed half a panel and threw the mitt into the rinse bucket. One vehicle had protection that was very strong, garaged, and well cared for. The other stays outside, and the protection is on the way out.
On each, the suds acted as a nice lubricating barrier between the surface and the mitt. With each pass, I kept thinking to myself, "Wow, very slick stuff". The cleaning power was a bit above what I currently use (TOL Bubble Bath) and the mitt, once in the rinse bucket, rinsed very clean (cleaner than usual).
Once rinsed, the surface had a bit of sheeting action on each vehicle, but rinsed very clean (no residue). Once dried, I noticed that almost no slickness was diminished.
Overall Thoughts: I like the high level of slickness and protective barrier of suds this wash has. It is also VERY cost effective. It's ability to clean well, but also leave the protection there is a plus in my book. Once my current stock is up, I will look to purchase Chemical Guys Maximum Suds.
Other Notes: Wash weekly for a happy car
