Default wanna try new product line...suggestions?

ok this was sparked by my new found OBSESSION with Meguiar's Shampoo Plus!!! The Stuff is The SHITE!

Reason i picked some up is that I was out of adam's soap and had been hearing great things about meg's detailing line from some UK detailers (esp. about the shampoo+) so with a Meg's store 5 minutes from my house....YES AN OFFICIAL MEG"S STORE!!! i know alot of you guys are prb jealous...but I just never like their stuff i used to use it alot....anyways i picked up some shampoo+ there for a job i had as i was out of nything else, and OMG!!! the stuff is so insanely good. Its the perfect consistency and suds perfect and leaves a brilliant finish too!

so I plan on picking up more and some meg's APC(heard good about that too)

happy with alot of my adam's stuff and will not replace detail spray cuz its so amazing, but I am now open to more product lines...maybe even CG wondering what you guys think my first order should be from CG or anybody else...Im up for any kind of new dressings spray detailers cleaners or soaps....im Swissvax 4ever and menz 4ever as well as P21S 4ever, but esp clays Im looking for now....come on guys hit me upo with a good order list for stuff for me to try out!

there are no product lines that have everything that i want...
the closest i get is p21s cause i love their cleaners and their wax.

is the adams detail spray carnauba based? (havent tried it yet)

for CG I can say their citrus wash and gloss is a good soap, one of my favorites. If you want to know more about Chemical GUy's, search around n if you can't find something FMINUS and Orngez should help u out

I like Duragloss, Pinnacle, Menzerna, CG's and obsessivedetail. Lots of great products out there. Like klumzypinoy said Orngez and FMINUS are the resident CG guru's which is great cuz they've been there and done that =)
DG901= great soap.
Citris Wash n Gloss= great soap

As far as CGs goes you can't go wrong with:

1. Citrus Wash n Gloss
2. VRP
3. Synthetic QDer
4. Glass Cleaner
5. Blitz
6. Bare Bones Under Carriage Spray

Adam's Detail Spray has no carnauba in it.

that is correct...

even though mark from cg said their is a lil. those are the words direct from him( no flaming) hehe...howevever, i havent treid the CG speedwipe or the propolish (blue stuff) which does have carnuba so i can't compare...

AP detail spray (if it had no carnuba in it) would probably be CG's speedwipe. AP detail psray is good stuff, i've diluted 1:1 as a clay lube

Einszet

Glanz wash excellent basic wash
Blitz APC good cleaning ability for basic apc needs
Their wheel cleaner is as good as p21s gel, just not in bulk.
Plastik, best trim and rubber cleaner out there. leaves anti static film
Rubber care, Good product great for wheel wells, and engine bays, rubber trims.
Leather car, excellent for newer coated and maintained leathers.
Cockpit premium fantastic uv and anti static interior cleaner dressing.


1z Intensive paste, fantastic SRC polish with bit more cut than sip, less than PG 3 times the work time.

1z HGP excellent src polish with same cut as SIP, finishes down like 106, even greater work time than 106.

1z Final Finish. A good solid final polish for removing hazing or holograms.

1z metalic polish and wax. My preferred step down polish from polish heavy details.

1z glanz fantastic sealant with the look of a good carnauba but 4.5 months durability in seattle winter.

this post is on the money.

things that aren't nice about the 1Z pro line
Smells yucky to put it simply
You have to develop a technique to get product out or else you will be wasting lots. One think I love love love about IP is that if you use a but more product then usual, then do your usual heavy passes, left up and do some light pressure passes, the stuff finishes off with a really dark wet look. Def one of my favorite companies out there. Someone just needs to teach them how to make better smelling stuff. New lids would be nice as well...
