Car Wash Soap

I was just wondering what brand of car wash soap you guys use?

Currently I use Simoniz with carnauba wax. I prefer the car wash soap to have some wax in it to help keep my wax on longer.

I use Meguiars Gold Class or NXT car soap only because it's readily available. I prefer Poorboy's Slick and Suds better. The best car soap I have used is Pinnacle Bodywork Shampoo. That thing builds suds galore and reeks of coconut. At $70/gallon, it'd better.

I use the NXT. Keep in mind that a quality soap will help preserve wax anyway. I have never been a fan of the wax as you wash type soaps.

Soaps with wax in them are the best at preserving the wax that is already on your car. Some detailers even spray some quick detailer or spray wax on the car right after the last rinse, and then dry it.
