from Autozone Year / Model Reviewed: 1994/Caprice Classic Summary: I'm a detailer and I've tried more than ten different car shampoo's, each having their own special functions and attributes. Eagle One Wet Car Wash is among the best that I've tried. Although there may be some better car shampoo's out there, for the price and performance of this product, I would buy this before the others. Only one other product that I know of is cheaper in price per ounce that delivers the same performance but it's near impossible to find if you don't look online. Eagle One Wet Car Wash can be found almost anywhere for the average price of $4.49 with a 64 ounce refill priced at $4.99. Purchasing either will provide you with enough car washes to last an entire year.
The shampoo itself is extremely gentle so it won't strip sealant or carnuba waxes. Combined with a microfiber or sheepskin mitt, the lubrication ingredients in the wash itself will help prevent those infamous swirl marks even on darker colored cars. Unlike some other shampoo's that use natural oils, which isn't a very bad thing at all, this shampoo utilizes Teflon (PTFE) in order to quickly remove dirt, bugs, and other grime. Another good quality of the shampoo is that it makes drying much easier as well as help repel dirt for the next wash. Shampoo's that use natural oils perform in the same way, but tend to be much more expensive ($10-$20).
In conclusion, I recommend this shampoo for any car owner. I'm not saying it's the absolute best car shampoo on the planet but it's comparable to those that are, and at a fraction of the price. It suits someone that just wants to keep their car clean as well as someone that intricately details their car regularly and expects only the best. Strengths: - It's great for both light and dark colored cars.
- Does not strip waxes.
- Quickly lifts dirt away.
- Teflon formula prevents leaving swirl marks.
- Repels dirt and grime in between washes.
- Inexpensive.
- One 12 ounce bottle lasts through months of weekly washings.
- Commonly found in most chain-stores. Weaknesses: - Low sud amounts can turn off some customers.
- Doesn't leave a deep glossy shine like some more expensive car shampoo's do. Similar Products Used: - Pinnacle Bodywork Shampoo
