Just wanna share with everyone some new product (sample) i tested lately...

user posted image

Maker:Chemical Guys
Full Name : Citrus Wash & Gloss Synthetic Citrus Based Hyper-Wash+GLOSS (No-More Spots)

Product Intro : Citrus Based High-Performance total auto wash & gloss formulated to simply be the best wash& gloss at any price. A citrus base, hyper-concentrated Wash+Gloss is the ultimate surface prep paintwork cleanser, shampoo and gloss enhancer in one. This 100% surface friendly biodegradable formula out performs hazardous solvent shampoos and surface cleaners. Fast penetrating citrus aided lubricating foam lifts and holds soil in suspension for easy scratch free rinsing. Ultra hyper concentrated citrus extracts break down dirt and grime while lubricating surfaces allowing debris to be gently rinsed off. Naturally derived Citrus extracts are formulated with the finest cleaning and glossing agents available today to deliver a 100% pure Citrus Cleaner free of artificial thickeners, colors or additives delivering the cleanest, streak free high gloss finish.

Extremely concentrated and highly versatile

Dilution
- 1/2 oz mixes with 1-2 gallons of water for a superior wash.

If you want to use the shampoo as a paintwork cleanser
- 2oz with 1 gallon water for superior surface cleaner to remove built up grime and leftover wax.

Personal experience and finding
Ultimate heavy suds - First time use you will mostly get shock since even wash medium (washmitt) is kinda of 'hard' to clean off since as you keep rinsing it with water it will keep generating suds BUT upon the medium clean, the wash medium somehow become softer...i suspect this product might have softener. Easy to rinse off on paintwork and leave glossy surface.

Lubricity: 10/10
Shine: 9/10
Protection: 5/10
Scent: Citrus

Size availability : 16oz and 1 gallon

Price : SG$18.00 and SG$85

Anyone interested to share a gallon ? I got friend coming up end of this month..can try get him buy for me....haha

water beeding, dust and dirty attraction...

Oh well basically shampoo is cleaning product so i don't expect anything out of it but i am looking at easy on easy off + gloss + heavy suds (if you like) biggrin.gif

how is the slickness compared to NXT and Gold Class?

at the normal dilution ratio for washing normally, is it harsh(strips off some wax protection) ?

thanks in advance smile.gif

so far i used 3-4 times. According to the sifu that gave me...it very slick and they experience can't grab hold of the wash mitt...like been said during TT.

So i tried half Oz (instead 1 Oz) dilute with 2 or 2.x gallon water...still gila foamy and i did experience where my hand slipped away from the washmitt ( sometime i dun slot my hand into the washmitt)

If normal dilution won't strip of wax. Hyperwash 1:400 and Citrus 1:500. About same price also...and it leave gloss to surface...maybe it carry some gloss agent

So sifu i wanna share let me know ah..a gallon biggrin.gif
