Chemical Guys CWS80416 Carbon Flex Vitalize Wash (16oz)

I've been using Chemical guys honeydew and Mr pink for my ceramic coated car and realized it's no good as it leaves a residue on the car to give it that extra shine. But this one removed those residue and gave a better shine and the ceramic seems to work better, the car does not get as dirty as it used to get with the above products. So +1 for this on ceramic coated cars. I have ceramic pro.

Updating to four stars becuase the product does work and leaves a good shine to ceramic coating ... I had to use more than double the amount of soap with a bucket wash very limited suds.

Amazing stuff. Great in combination with a coating

Pretty Good Wash. Ph balanced So i was able to use it a few times in direct sunlight. It leaves a very nice shine however I had to use a lot more than it says on the label for my Foam Cannon. With the extra amount it takes this product simply isnt cost effective at $20 a bottle. I use the Mr. Pink and really find no difference the way I wash my car.

Awsome product.

Overall not a bad wash, but it doesn't tick all the boxes for me either. Considering it is a coating maintenance wash, I'm guessing it is a Si02 infused shampoo like Gyeon Bathe+ or Carpro Hydrofoam. It does leave behind a nice hydrophobic effect on my MDX (coated with Opti Gloss Coat) and my Silverado (sealed with Powerlock), and thus I would recommend it for maintaining any coated or sealed vehicle, and far better than any of those other "wash and wax" shampoos on the market. The down sides are that I didn't find it to be a high foaming shampoo in my bucket, and it didn't feel very slick (I was at about 3oz in a 5 gal bucket; maybe going 1:128 may help). Also for the price, the few extra bucks that the products listed above will give a better hydrophobic properties with truer dilution ratios listed on their bottles. It's a solid 7/10 product for me.

I have tried many car washed through a foam cannon, all Chemical Guys soaps work great but this one makes my car look even better. It really brings more shine to the ceramic coating!!!
