Meguiar's Ultimate Wash and Wax,48 Oz

This auto soap is a great buy! It only takes a tiny amount to suds up to a dense, powerful foam! This soap will give your car a deep clean that rids it of all dirt n grime, but also leaves your car with a nice waxy shine with minimal effort! It will take much less soap than you would think to do a complete job on your auto. I truly did not expect to get so many washes from 1 bottle! Very satisfied in price, quality and performance. Here’s my system for a spot free, clean and shiny car or truck —- I start by sudsing up a wash bucket with this bright yellow soap and wash 1/2 my car at a time, rinsing each side after brushed, then I do my roof and all windows, spray clean with hose, then I do all 4 wheels and wash off entire car 1 more time. Then dry w squeegee or large towel starting with windows then all rest of the vehicle. Final step is applying tire shine and let sit for 10 mins. Then you’re ready to hit the roads lookin great! Lil tip,,,,, I Sometimes use the towel I dry my car with to easily wipe down dash, interior and door jams before using product on it. Anyone who uses this soap will see that it’s great!

Ok first off - i used to be an ASE mechanic years ago and had detail / auto body friends give me tips.. with that said i fall between a novice and intermediate on experience level with cars... but the negative reviews on here that are in regard to the performance of this - are just lost in life lol... Use - 4 cap fulls, just a few oz, literally makes a bout two buckets worth.. the first bucket is EXTRA soapy with bright white thick foam. its amazing.. i feel it in my hands and its thick and u can feel the wax in it.. the first bucket ill use for the car (2011 Ford Edge Limited 303a pckg w/ the limited edition metal flake paint job.. 2nd bucket of suds i get from the 4 cap fulls is a little diluted vs the 1st (im talking the suds are maybe 70%??) so i use that on the tires n rims and etc... Clean - bam! it blasts thru all sorts of stuff... i have hard lime based water where i live with lots of clay in the ground (Maryland).. so i fight the water quality as well as the dirt on the car is tough to get off. this stuff just is so thick n sudsy, it does an OUTSTANDING job!! Shine - I will do a once over with a california blade (its a long handle that has this 12-14'' long silicone piece (think silicone wiper blade) and just get the bulk of the water off with it.. than i go back and use my chamois.. and then microfiber for any left over water... let it dry and it shines sparkles and just jaw drops (and for the nit picky people - this is a wash and wax.... gimme a break and get a grip if you think its going to make your car shine like an actual high quality wax job!!!!!!! be realistic...) After thoughts - the BEST bang for your buck.. Bonus! - as i was driving into work i noticed the rain beaded up on my windshield and zipped right off. you know what other times this happens? when i WAX my car or use Rain X (rain x is that silicone and wax based application). out of all the wash n wax options out there (and i have used 5 diff types) NONE and i mean NONE gave this affect - as if i had just waxed my windshield. this shows and proves first hand the level of wax and quality of this wash. BUY THIS WASH AND WAX!!!!

Excellent product and leaves a great shine on my vehicles

i dont kno how much, if any, wax this applies but a few of us at work use it on our personal cars and we all like it. i use the recommended dosage, about 4oz in a five gallon bucket that is 2/3 full of water then fill and foam to the top. i use a grit guard and a chenille wash mit. Meg W&W doesnt strip wax, cleans off bug/bird dropping residue and leaves no water spots. i rinse, wash the whole car, rinse, then wash and rinse a section or two at a time. i have to do very little drying after squeeging the windows. if the water in my wash bucket isnt too dirty after the 1st car washed, ill add 1oz product and some more water and wash my other car the same way. ive used turtle wax ice wash and this is ALOT better. a friend of mine used to use mothers car wash, he used this and he now says this is better. i like to try different products but dont want to buy something else when i like this so much. smells good and foam lasts til im done. i waxed my cars in october. its the end of april and the water still beads on both my cars...so i guess this soap (and my wax) does the job.

I've been using Meguiar's Gold for several years and continue to use it as it is an outstanding car wash product. I've written a review about this and how I use it. I use a local DIY car wash exclusively as I don't have a pressure washer at home. I use a "no scratch, touchless" approach to washing my car by using the Meguiar's Gold in a spray bottle. I cover the car in this Meguiar's spray, then use the pressure washer to vigorously float away all of the dirt/dust. It does an outstanding job. Now to the Ultimate Wash and Wax product, I actually use it as a second, finishing wash. First wash using Megquiar's Gold, complete the rinse. Then I use the Ultimate Wash and Wax with the same spray bottle technique. I am completely amazed at how great the car looks after I dry the car off. (I use large towels to dab off the water and do not wipe the towels across the paint.) If the DIY car wash had an electric plug near the vacuum, I would use the leaf blower (a clean one) to dry the car. But I digress, the car looks absolutely beautiful as if it had a thick coat of wax. I realize this isn't the same as waxing which I schedule yearly, but for the interim every 3 week car wash it will be just fine. Update: I've been using this method of washing my car now for 4 months now and something amazing has happened. Each was has left a layer of wax behind and the result is that a new wash leaves behind an amazing deep luster! My car is a black SUV and it looks absolutely amazing. I'm floored by how good it looks.

It's not often when a product really stands out from it's competitors. This is one of those products. I tried some Turtle Wax (supposed) wash and wax that seemed anything but. It was no different than any other car soap and not a single bead of water formed during or after washing. It wasn't cheap either so I took it back. A car enthusiast friend recommended this, and he was spot-on. You open it up and it is rich in color, creamy in texture and has a good smell that you can smell 10 feet away even after it's mixed with water. (don't mix too much with water - just enough to have enough suds mixture to cover the whole car). You can just see and feel the difference as you wash, and when you rinse off, the water just sheets off and beads form nicely. Not as much as a real wax and buff job of course, but as good as can be expected from a wash and wax. I swear my paint job sparkled too.... I suspect that if you use this in between regular wax jobs, it will extend the time needed between them, and if you never actually wax your car, if you use just this, you might be alright.

I was roaming the halls of Walmart and I saw some carwash soap in the automotive section. I thought to myself, "What idiots would pay money for this stuff... all you need is some dishwashing liquid." Well, per the Meguiar's website, you should never use dishwashing liquid to wash your car. Sure, I thought, that is whay they say so you will buy their product.... but then they gave a very good reason. Dish washing liquid is designed to remove all of the food and oil from the dishes. Well, it also removes wax from cars. Makes sense since wax is sort of oily (I guess???) Anyway, this stuff is really not expensive. You only need a little bit to add to a gallon of water, so one bottle will last you over a year (unless you actually wash your car every week like you are supposed to.) Also, it does leave your car, not only clean, but a bit "waxy" feeling. They suggest to use it for washing your car between waxings. You could just wash your car with this and skip the waxing. It would not be anywhere as good as waxing it, but if you aren't ever going to wax your car anyway, you might as well give it some protection. I also shelled out the big bucks for the Meguiar's liquid synthetic wax... and the waxing pads. You go through a fair amount of the synthetic wax liquid, so unfortunately, that won't last through that many waxings... and it is quite expensive... which makes me think that this "Wash and Wax" is all that much better of a value.

I wash my car about once every week and half myself. I have audi a4. Luckily my neighbor owns a carwash and he waxes it professionally for me once every month or so. I use this stuff in between waxes. I use the meguiars mitts to completely soak the car in the wash. It truly keeps the wax on the car, and I have gotten numerous compliments for it. Now I will say this stuff does not do a professional wax job. It simply does not, it is a great complement after a wax job, but don't use this stuff thinking it will be just as good as a professional wax job. That simply is not the case. Use it afterwards repeatably. I asked my neighbor about it, and he told me that if you use this stuff once a week for about three months, you will eventually get a nice coat of wax to stick to the paint. It seems he was right, the wax seems to never wash away now. My car is shiny, and I mean shiny. Even if there is a layer of dirt (which you get driving around for a week or so) it is still shiny with this stuff.

Une dinguerie niveau nettoyage et laisse un fini presque digne d'un polissage pendant au moins 1 semaine

Einleitung: Ich habe mir ein neues Auto gekauft. Ein sehr kompetenter Kollege meinte darauf, dass Handwäsche viel schonender ist und ich unbedingt Meguiars kaufen sollte. Er empfahl mir das Soft-Gel (pink). Auf Grund des Preises entschied ich mich für das "Wash & Wax". Teuer? Es gibt einige Bewertungen wo drin steht, dieses Shampoo wäre teuer. Es ist richtig, dass es im Vergleich zu anderen Herstellern (z.B. Sonax) im "Preis pro Liter" deutlich teurer ist. Es handelt sich hier allerdings um eine ca.1,5 Liter Flasche und lediglich 30ml sind pro Wäsche nötig. In der Theorie bedeutet dies ca.48 Waschvorgänge. In einer anderen Bewertung stand etwas von 45 Waschvorgängen...also ein realistischer Wert. Vergleiche ich dies mit Waschstraßen wo pro Wäsche mindestens 6 Euro anfallen, finde ich 0,4 Euro spotbillig, vor allem wenn man das Ergebnis betrachtet und weiß, dass es ein deutlich schonendes werthaltiges Verfahren für sein Auto ist. Ergebnis: (Vorbereitung: Ich war in einer SB-Waschanlage und habe für 1 Euro mit einem Hochdruckreiniger das Auto grob gereinigt. Muss man aber nicht. Dann zuhause per Hand weiter gewaschen.) Ich habe das Auto mit einem AllClear 2-Seiten Allrounder gewaschen. Dazu habe ich 30ml des Schampoos in einen 5 Liter Eimer gefüllt und einen weiteren 10 Liter Eimer mit klarem Wasser daneben gestellt. Anschließend (nicht kreisend) das Auto gewaschen. Das Shampoo schäumt sehr gut, riecht aber überhaupt nicht schlimm oder nach Hubba Bubba (wie anderer Tester schrieben). Als das Auto fertig gewaschen/eingeseift war, habe ich mit einem Gartenschlauch von Dach abwärts den Shampoo weggewaschen. Danach noch mal Stellen die groben Schmutz hatten, den ich übersehen hatte, mit dem Lappen geputzt...noch mal mit Schlauf abgewaschen. Normalerweise sollte man jetzt noch das Auto trocken putzen. Da es aber leicht regnete an dem Tag, habe ich mir dies gespart. Was sofort beim Abwaschen auffiehl war, dass das Wasser sauber abperlte, wie bei einem gewachsten Auto. Später als die Sonne schien sah ich ein super glänzendes Auto. Da mir der Kollege, der diverse Foren durchforstet hatte, empfahl das Auto erst nach 6 Monaten zu waschen (Lack muss aushärten), werde in einem Monat die Wäsche wiederholen und dann zusätzlich einwachsen. Bin von dem Ergebnis mehr als zufrieden...und teuer oder nicht, aber 40 Cent pro Wäsche finde ich nicht teuer...und 20 Euro im Jahr sollte einem sein Auto wert sein.

This is the best wash and wax I have used great shine when finished not the cheapest but does a good job 👍

- The product has such a strong smell you can smell it even few hours after wash - High viscosity, unlike some other products which are like water - Removes dirt and other grime with ease no pressure needed - Would recommend to everyone without hesitation

The wash and wax is the best I have tried. The wax feature is evident and the color of the car truly sparkles after cleaning, like show room condition. Highly recommended. Though will advise to use less than the instructions as a small amount is quite soapy already.
