Meguiars Gold Car wash seems to work well. Foams a lot more than the cheap stuff that we got over here.

I use Meguiars Gold Class - well priced, foams well, cleans well, and contains no surfactants so leaves you wax intact.

Autoglym Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner. Stock up when Halfords do their 2-for-1 offers. It's great, especially if you prepare with a coat of Super Resin Polish beforehand.

I've used AG, Megs, Hubikote, Dodo Juice, Power maxed, Bilt Hamber AW etc etc.

Dependant on how bad the car is and whether I have a LSP applied to the car is what I then use to choose the shampoo.

AG and Meguiars is readily available so easiest to go to them. I also pre wash using snow foam and always use a 2BM rule.

Dodo Juice born to be mild is my fave at the moment. Like 'Twincam' always used after a prewash and using 2 buckets.
