Default Chemical Guys Citrus Wash & Gloss -- Great truck wash!

I picked up a bottle of Chemical Guys "Citrus Wash & Gloss" and a new foam blaster last week. All I can say is, "wow." First foray into a specialty / non-big-box truck wash, and I'm impressed. Truck has never been waxed, and has not been washed since early last summer.

I sprayed on a thick foam of Citrus Wash & Gloss, let it set a few minutes (10-15, w/out drying), and rinsed everything off (was thinking the foam-and-rinse would be a good first step in prep for today). It removed ALL visible dirt and bugs, and left no waterspots -- and left a nice shine. I'm sold!

I'm headed out now to do the truck with a full mitt wash, then dry, clay bar, and my first venture using Collinite 845.

Here's what the Citrus Wash & Gloss did with only a good foaming:

Cab you make a movie of the CG "Citrus Wash & Gloss" and a new foam blaster.
We would like to see it in action.

Did you use a foam gun or a foam cannon?

Meaning...Does your foam "blaster" hook up to a hose or a pressure washer?

Looks good. Think I'll give it a try.


Remember, with the Collinite 845, apply it really thin... much thinner than you'd think.
