We created Car Wash with a careful balance of powerful cleaning and exacting care. Now you can wash your car thoroughly while protecting your wax.

Mothers pH balanced, super-sudsy cleaner also resists water spotting.

  • Sparkling and shiny car wash

  • Beautiful
Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Growing up only ever using dish soap to wash the vehicles I heard they were famous for leaving a nasty film, dulling the vehicles. So I did some research and found some of the best detailers use this car wash so I decided to give it a try. It is easy to use and goes a long way. I found after using it the bright shiny color started to show through again. It has been a game changer as to the way I care for my vehicles. Never again will I ever use anything else. ... show more

  • A Bit Deceiving... (In a good way!)
Size: 64 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I recently put this through the paces on my car. First, I used it with a foam gun just to get the loose dirt off and initial impressions were very nice! It covered the car with a nice sudsy coating (not SUPER sudsy, but more than a budget car wash liquid) and smelled like bubble gum! However, the suds disappeared quickly, almost TOO quickly. Made me a bit worried. But I moved on to the hand wash. Poured some in a bucket, filled it up with water, and as expected, LOTS of suds, but they seemed to die down very quickly... After the rinsing off the soap and drying the car though, this is where the car wash liquid REALLY shines (bad puns are bad). In the sun, the paint was deep, reflective, and it just looked CONSIDERABLY cleaner than before. It looked like a whole new depth was added to the paint. Coming from Meguiar's Wash and Wax - 48 oz., this car wash liquid takes the cake in final finish and cleaning ability. However, I think the Meguiar's takes the trophy home for best smelling (to me), most suds, and longest lasting suds. The Mothers left an awesome finish and kept water spots away when drying, but the bubblegum smell was nearly non-existent and the suds were worrying at first. I would consider Mothers California Gold as a nice start to a full-on DIY detailing job (or even just a quick, light detailing job). It gives a nice base to work off of. It seems to clean dirt off more effectively than Meguiar's (tested by clay bar) and leaves a nice, smooth finish, giving you a bit more peace-of-mind. However, if you are short on time and would rather just give it a quick wash, consider the Meguiar's. It'll give you a one-two combo of a wash that's ever so slightly less shiny and will coat it with a (very) light wax. Sum: - Good: Smells like bubble gum, leaves a deep finish (whole new depth - especially on darker colors!), keeps water spots from forming while drying, cleaning ability is awesome! - Not-So-Good: Suds are a bit disappointing, scent isn't as defined or noticeable once rinsed off. Recommended! ... show more

  • Works pretty well, definitely a cost-effective choice
Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Lathered up nicely, left my car looking really good after washing. Seemed to not have any reaction with the paint sealant on my car, which is a plus. Soap has a very mild scent, which I find a good thing. Less than half the price of other washes, with twice the volume. Will probably switch over to this soap full-time once I use up the rest of my other soap. The bottle dimensions are on the small side, but the volume is exactly as described (32 oz.). I still can't figure out why some people have an issue with that... ... show more

  • This Stuff Is Great!
Size: 64 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
One of my neighbor's trees extends into my driveway, which I really don't mind, specialy during the summer time, but with the comfort and shade, comes lots of a weird milky crap tha the tree lets off. So my car can get pretty sticky and dirty easily and quick. I started using this product exactly a year ago and it works beautifully, this car wash not only gets rid of all road grime, dust and dead bugs, it leaves my car shinny, so shinny, I don't want to wax it afterwards. I even use it to wash my tires and rims, it easily helps remove brake dust build up and other hard stains. Simply mix some of this wash in a bucket of water and you should have enough to wash your whole car, including tires and rims. Trust me, you won't be disappointed, this stuff is great. ... show more

  • Smells like bubblegum and keeps the bugs coming back for more!
Size: 64 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It seems like every time I wash my car with this stuff, I get more bugs to land on my car when I'm trying to wash it. First it was just flies, and then last week I had a horse fly bother me. I hate horse flies, but I don't hate this stuff because it keeps my car looking glossy! I love this stuff during the summer time because I get so many bugs on my fascia just from driving to and from work in one day! Then at the end of the week I wash them all off and I can look forward to scrubbing my car again the following week! The bottle is a great size and I feel like I get a lot for so little. ... show more
