I use Zymol clear on mine (there are 2 zymols: a cheap SUV one thats blue...NOT that one - the one I use comes in a white bottle and is, well, clear)

Ooops......I had the blue one.........maybe I should use the white one you talked about on my next car!

I like the perls, maybe even more so than zymol clear auto bathe.

Most car wash solutions are pH balanced and that's the important thing. It should only release the bond between the dirt and the paint without removing the oils from your wax.

I saw several who use zymöl Clear™. That's a great product as are all Meguiar's washes. Zaino is actually one of the best values out there but if you order some order a few bottles so reduce your overall shipping cost.

Additionally, if you're using a waxing system you should use their wash as well as their generally compliment the wax.

A lot of people will do that. The nice thing about Car Shampoos though is that the soap can sometimes lessen/neutralize hard water. I like shampoos also because they can "Lubricate" the surface a bit more and make your washing towel glide across the dirt a bit more.

Talking

I recommend the Pinnacle shampoo. It works really well and has a nice tropical scent to it.

I have used just about every brand and found that Swissol gives the best wash, it's expensive but very good.

I just got some Blackfire and will let you know after I use it. It is supposed to be formulated for darker cars.
