You want CG Max Suds II.
CG CWG & CWC will strip wax.

stud II is probably the safe one i don't like wash/wax cause they don't do a very good job in general those last two probably strip LSP |

I recommend Duaragloss 901 for maintenance. It's cheap, great lubricity and won't strip off your LSP.

umm interesting, so the 901 is safe for maintenance, i aint a detailer and dont got any polish or wax on my car, except for when the dealer detailed it.
my car is about 15 months old with 15k miles on it, garage kept and washed weekly. im just looking for a good car shampoo, i am currently using NXT car wash and alot of people have told me Megauirs gold glass is some of the best OTC, but so far looks like CG studs II is a great choice but 901 is better? o and btw i just ordered some #425 FK1 QD, wavvle weave MF towels, ultra plush MF towels, sonus wool mit ![]() |

I used to use Meg's Gold Class and I liked it... But I bought the CG Maxi Suds II this time around based on recommendations of the brand. It's definitely slick, and it's very concentrated, so a gallon goes a further than the Meg's (1 cap per gallon vs. 1 oz per gallon).
Add me to the CG's convert list! I picked up some Jetseal too ![]()

Man I feel so left out
![]() I've been using Jeff's AutoBody Wash for maintenance with as much success as could be expected. No complaints, anyway. http://www.werkstat.com/autobody-wash.php I've switched from Dawn to CWC for wax-stripping duty. |

Z7 is a good soap. It's just not as economical as others. Pricey for a soap and can't be had locally as far as I know so shipping needs to be tacked on as well.

yeah zaino being shipped sucks! 9.00 bucks even if you only order 1 item! so the shampoo would cost like 20 bucks..... it's not worth 20 bucks, i can tell you that much
