Having mentally transitioned to coatings and their related products, I'm gradually getting rid of all my "traditional" products.

This Ultima shampoo is about 35% - 40% full:

I guess I'm looking for things that might be coating or coating-related. Thanks.
 
say it isn't so. Why is the Ultima Car Wash no longer a valid choice? Are these other specifically targeted coating wash products really going to make a noticeable difference? Perhaps you just need to use a higher dilution ratio since the paint is coated. Just asking Tom.

Well, the coating mfr recommends using a completely neutral (body shop-safe) shampoo....a product that leaves no residue behind so the coating can do its job. I suspect 90% of the shampoos out there would not meet that criteria. It's the same reason they don't recommend the use of QD products or "toppers" of any sort. So many of the products we want to use do leave a "sticky" surface, whether we can detect it or not.

I've been using the RESET product and CG's Mr Pink on a routine basis. Getting very good results. This does not diminish the Ultima's performance in any way. It's one of the best shampoos money can buy.

We are in heavy pollen season now. I "think" using the RESET shampoo keeps the car just a bit cleaner between washes. The RESET is also very good for removing tree sap I'm finding. It's a stronger shampoo.
