  • Do You Love the Smell of a Car Wash?
Size: 1 Gallon (128 Ounces)
Do you love the smell of a gas station car wash, but want to wash your own car? This is the car wash soap for you! What the Details page doesn't tell you is that 3M 38377 has the consistently of hair gel; this stuff is thick, heavy, and goes a long way. Oh, and it smells EXACTLY like a car wash; because this is probably the exact same stuff automated car washes use. From use I've found this car wash soap to remove dirt and grime incredibly well, and I could not be happier. I was incredibly disappointed that my jug leaked in transit, I was delivered a soggy box with a plastic wrapped jug covered in car wash soap. I was incredibly disappointed because, as of 12/25/2018 when I'm writing this review, I'm on the team that manages 3M's industrial product presence on Amazon. I expected Amazon would do a better job of preparing the product for shipping, and not allow it spill everywhere. DISCLAIMER: I am a contractor at 3M. I did not receive a discount on this product and was not incentivized to purchase it over a competitor. My opinions are mine alone, and are not representative of 3M. I do believe in 3M's product philosophy, and I do believe this car wash soap is a legitimately excellent product. ... show more

  • Excellent value, same great performance as the 3M Car Soap
Size: 1 Gallon (128 Ounces)
Excellent value. Works just like (could be the exact same thing as) the 3M Car Soap sold in smaller black plastic bottles. This lasted me 4 months with cleaning my Volvo XC60 once a week

  • Eh, it's ok

  • Suds... Suds... amd more Suds...
Size: 1 Gallon (128 Ounces)
All I can say is wow. This was recommended to me by the body shop that just finished repainting my car. And i must say that I am glad they did. A little bit of this product goes a long way. Endless suds and rinses away super clean. Will buy again and again.

  • Best Car Wash Soap on the market
Size: 1 Gallon (128 Ounces)
Started using this a couple of years ago when a friend gave me a half bottle and told me to "keep it". I use it on my vehicle, my motor-home, motorcycle, and even my boat. Excellent product. Eats bugs easily, even long time dried out ones... And a little goes a looooong way. Great product!!

This stuff works great, it cleans really well and does not remove wax. The car wash soap actually comes in a clear bottle instead of the white bottle that is shown.
