I've been very pleased with Carpro products. They have something for every application. But I still love Adams car shampoo and Koch Chemie snow foam.

I use Chemical Guys stuff. For water spots they have this After Wash spray that works awesome.

Polish Angel has converted me. Well worth the cost. The High Gloss has gotten me more positive comments at Cars and Coffee than ever before. Now I’ve slowly transitioned almost all of my products over to PA.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again….I have a problem. Posted this elsewhere but seemed fitting for this thread.

As a fellow OG believer, I fail to see your “problem”—just your obsession! I approve of your plumbing. I’m getting ready to take the plunge. I installed the *** Reel for my new vacuum setup over the weekend. Unnecessary. And fantastic!

+1 for the Snow Foam. And Gyeon stuff. All excellent. Lots of great products out there today.

Let me pose another question to the enthusiasts around here. How long will you keep a bottle of whatever you use on your car? Do you have a personal expiration date, does the product grow better with age, or somewhere in between? Curious to hear when you might toss something. Thanks.

Thanks. If you look to the right of the *** reel handle you will see my vacuum set up. A 50 foot hide a hose system.

Do you now wash your car just to use this setup?

Assuming it's nothing personal, what do you have printed on the list shown in the upper left of the photo (just curious, and in awe of your setup)?

Thanks very much. I keep a laminated list of what product is each bottle so I don't get confused at refill time.

I always welcome friends who want to use it but can't say I've gotten to the point where I enjoy washing other peoples cars.

How many cars would be too many to bring by?
