I use the Griots Brillianf Finish and works great with the sprayer and bucket but the best part is that can be easely found at Advance Auto or Auto Zone for just $13 for 64oz
On Amazon, others asked about whether it’s PH neutral and the response was “Yes”… so I ordered a gallon of the Grape and Glow!! Thanks for sharing the test… keep up the great work you’ve doing!!
That jay Leno stuff performed better than I thought it would. Also, could you please do a video sometime of that ceramic detail spray that you mentioned? I’m really interested in how that performs
@@asianguywithacamera do you spray it on with a wet vehicle and towel dry? Or dry the car off then use the spray and buff dry? I’ve tried p&s beadmaker but all it did was leave streaks. I wasn’t very impressed
Your 4Runner has been washed more in 4 videos than mine has in its entire life lol. But really thanks for putting the work in to show the difference in the products.
I understand why you tested them all in the typical cannon with the larger orifice but I really wish you did them all with the 1.1 orifice so we could see how the cheap products perform with that setup. Especially since everyone watching your videos is gonna upgrade to the smaller orifice because of your videos, I did. I’m really curious which cheap soap foams the best with the 1.1. Would be another great video if you do that test. Thanks for all the excellent videos btw. You’ve helped me so much man.
Hey Josh…I use the Maguires wash & wax as my basic wash soap for my customers who just want their car washed (not detailed) and they love the shine. Good gloss enhancing capabilities.
@@MagicMikesDetailing Do you think that (after doing a pre wash and rinse), I could foam canon this onto the car and contact wash from there? Without using a bucket?
1st In my experience, using soaps that can be used in "direct sun" really work better when using deionized water because if the water isn't then still you see water spots.😄
What are your top 3 favorite air fresheners for cars? I've smelled chemical guys squash, signature, and black frost but none of them are really what I've been looking for. I've been looking into the new car smell but if it smells like the little trees new car smell I don't want it
I figured it would be Adams, I have been using Chemical Guys Honeydew Snow Foam for quite some time with pretty good results. I may switch to Mr. Pink or try sticky snowball. So many to choose from. Thanks for doing all the videos.
Josh, I've been watching a lot of your videos and I appreciate all the links for everything you use for setup and chemicals. I am also a big fan of Technicians Choice of products and glad to see that their Grape & Glow is a great foam wash. Next, I was wondering if you can do a review of Technicians Choice G-Max Graphene Detail Spray. Keep up the great videos.
LOL! here im looking for what to buy, right? i have a gallon of grape & glow out in the garage from when i used to detail at a dealer, and bought for myself.
i understand that youre doing 2 oz for all the soaps, but how i see it is if the company feels like they should have a smaller or bigger ratio to get the foams truest form/thickness, that would be better to test right? all of these companies run their own tests so they pick these oz based on the most effective performance.
In my experience, meguiar's gold class car wash, foam even more than ultimate wash & wax. Although I find UW&W awesome lather for a shampoo containing wax !. Would that make a cool duel of Meguiar's shampoo in the foam cannon ?! Ultimate wash & wax vs nxt car wash vs gold class car wash vs ultimate snow foam. Superb review my friend 👌
Gold class is an outdated product. It leaves oils behind after a wash. And those oils mask any hydrophobic properties of any sealants or coatings already on the car
Oh well, I often wash my paint (CQuartz lite x2, gliss v2 x1), and after each rinsing the pearl effect reappears very well!, And although gold class has been around for a long time does not remove its lubricating power, it will lubricate always more than UW&W!
I have the Maguire's classic and Maguire's Ultimate I am only using the classic but will try the Ultimate the next time I wash my truck when they are both gone i might get the grape and glow great videos!
I bought a Ryobi 2300. And bought the quick connects. Everything hooked up great until I went to use my foam cannon. It has a smaller quick connect. are these like 3/4 verses 1/4? Do I get an adaptor or just another male for the foamer?
@@imjoshv I’ve noticed the gold doesn’t foam as well as pink but I really like the smell 😁. I’ll runout my gallon and I think adams mega is next on the try list
Waxshine. They have 2. One has silica in it and the other is a green regular wash formula. Maguires hyper wash, & Lastly apexauto products- car shampoo. There based out in Texas.
Great videos 👍 continue good work. One quick tip I bay mjjc v2 with 1.1 and i wont to go with meg wash and max. Witch is the best mix ratio for ine small car? My Thot is 60ml and 600ml water If you can tell my one of the best ratio mix for wash and wax.thanks again
You should try bilt hamber auto wash not the foamiest but by far the best cleaning abilities I've used and believe me I've tried many. I won't use anything else , however I believe it's quite a lot cheaper here in the UK. Subscribed and keep up your excellent work 👍
Nooo I need to know who the best of the best is! I just got my old-school Corvette running again and the paint's looking great. I'm kidding though. I know these videos take time. I appreciate you putting this stuff together for car guys. Subbeddd
3:09 Is the swivel really need if you have the 3/8” quick connector? Wouldn’t it just swivel on the connection? The link in your description is not for the swivel version and doesn’t show both models like you said. Do you have another link or somewhere else to buy it?
buy pH strips cost are very low, so if they don't write it on the description the soap is pH-neutral you can test it yourself. When a soap is pH-neutral it must show on your pH-strip between pH 6 and pH 8.
Good idea. Just because the published label claims pH neutral doesn’t necessarily mean that it is actually pH neutral. I agree there should be a test to validate those claims. Maybe a separate video could clarify the pH neutral facts.
Hey bud I purchase the mjjc pro and the short spout handle gun I have the blue 50ft hose and use a green works 2100 1.2 gpm pressure washer and I get runny foam not even close to what you get I am using the griots foaming poly gloss soap any suggestions??
A bit off topic but have you tested the BlackMax hose from WalMart? It says UberFlex on the hose. $35 for a 35 foot hose, I feel like it was a good deal
Yes, he has tested this hose and others a few months ago. It was recommended, and I bought one. Works perfectly with my Ryobi 1600 and Griots Brilliant Finish cannon.
Hey big fan of your videos! Would you be able do to a review on the AR Blue Clean 2-in-1 2050 PSI 1.4 gpm pressure washer? Thank you for al the info you provide!
On the products Amazon page, Professional cleaning supply Inc. (The seller) states that Technicians Choice “Grape & Glow” is “PH neutral.” It’s under the Q & A section. I don’t know how correct it is…. Just thought I’d mention it. Great Work Brother, I love your channel/content!
Just FYI. I have a hose end foam sprayer and it is really unimpressive. So unimpressive that I now just breakout my gas pressure washer and use one of two foam cannons every time. They dont foam much and waste much more soap. Dont waste your money on one. I have a chemical guys Torq version
I’m a big fan of your videos but…I don’t know why you’re only using 2oz across the board…like…the griots…it said 4oz you used 2oz and said it was runny…well of coarse it will be if you’re not using the recommended amount…I feel like a better way to keep it fair would be to use the recommended amount…
I gotta say, using 2 ounces of product across the board isn’t fair. You should have gone with the manufacturer’s recommendation. Some of the products are made to have 1 ounce, some are made to have 4,5,6 ounces so you can’t fairly compare them only using 2 ounces. For the soaps that didn’t have any foam advertising on the bottle, you should’ve used the average amount just to see if it could foam at all. Not hating on the content, I’m a fan of the channel. Just wanted to give my opinion, even though I know nobody gives a shit what I have to say 😂
That has to be the cleanest 4Runner in a 300 Mile Radius

Yep the grape and glow has a ph level of 7.5
That jay Leno stuff performed better than I thought it would. Also, could you please do a video sometime of that ceramic detail spray that you mentioned? I’m really interested in how that performs
Jay Leno's is made by the same people who make Adams
Tec582 spray, very economical in the 1 gallon size. They just released the Tec584 graphene spray, supposedly really good, too.

Your 4Runner has been washed more in 4 videos than mine has in its entire life lol. But really thanks for putting the work in to show the difference in the products.
Great video! The technicians choice looks like it may give Adam's Mega Foam a run for the money! Can't wait to see the final round.
It’s up now!

I'm waiting for that competition as well! I think any shampoo under 15 cents an ounce should qualify. C'mon Josh!
Yeah I would have liked to see that as well for exactly the same reasons.
Well if it works in the cheap it will obviously work in the morning expensive
Hey Josh…I use the Maguires wash & wax as my basic wash soap for my customers who just want their car washed (not detailed) and they love the shine. Good gloss enhancing capabilities.
Do you use it in a snow canon or bucket wash?
@@CrystalNinja07 both. Doesn’t foam super good, but does give it a nice cover
@@MagicMikesDetailing Do you think that (after doing a pre wash and rinse), I could foam canon this onto the car and contact wash from there? Without using a bucket?

👍🇵🇷
Mother's! Now that's a blast from the past!

Hey Josh, Once you add the soap in the foam cannon do you fill the cannon to the top with water? It looks like you don't fill it all the way.

I found the spec sheet on Grape and Glow it is 7.5 but is that bad?
Nice work!!! 7.5 is ph neutral!!
Can’t wait for the finals!! Are Mr Gold and Mr Pink the same formula with different fragrances?

Witch is the best mix ratio for ine small car? My Thot is 60ml and 600ml water
If you can tell my one of the best ratio mix for wash and wax.thanks again

Have you ever tried Cherry Foam from Superior products???
Auto Fanatic snow storm 007 2.0 formula it's on par with mega foam!
So which is the best in the all four parts you have done . Also which is the cheapest .

you said you sell the JJ foam canon on your website-what is your website?? thanks for all your Awesome videos!!
Every Maguires product I e ever used has been excellent. I don’t think you can go wrong that brand.
I haven't seen you do a review on Ethos car care Foam Party or Ethos car care Ceramic Shampoo. Would you please do a review on these 2?
Have you ever tested Image Wash Products 2 step truck Wash soap? I would love to see a test of it.
You should try the oreilly brand car wash concentrate it’s made by superior products and it works pretty well for the price it’s super cheap
Did u swap out the stock orifice with the 1.1 orifice using the 1.2 gpm power washer?
Thanks

AWESOME evaluation and fair to all brands. Subscribing as a result.
How much soap/water did you used for the mothers soap?...
That technicals choice looks alot like Xtreme solutions Xtreme suds. They both might be the same product private label from b&b blending
Bro I love these videos! Keep it up 💪🏽🔥

So 2oz of soap in all these tests but I didn’t catch how much water you were adding then?

I can't wait to see the finals!!
Hey Josh, another great video! Thank you! According to Great Lakes Chemicals, TEC472 is PH Balanced.
Thanks Matt I saw that! I have a call I. To technicians choice to ask them too
Randy Freeman answered pH question that it was pH neutral, is he a rep. of seller or manufacturer?
A bit off topic but have you tested the BlackMax hose from WalMart? It says UberFlex on the hose. $35 for a 35 foot hose, I feel like it was a good deal
Yes, he has tested this hose and others a few months ago. It was recommended, and I bought one. Works perfectly with my Ryobi 1600 and Griots Brilliant Finish cannon.
Thats correct! Its is an uberflex hose and its great!
I got thr mothers at O'Reilly for 6.99 great value there
Great comparison, thanks Josh 👍😁
Thanks Dave!!! Hope all is well!!
you should test foam cannons, compare the mtm pf22 against the griots garage brilliant finish, compare both with the 1.25 and 1.1 orifice
In progress!!
Great information and testing I like video like this. So I don't go out and waste money bad soap.
How much water are you mixing in the foam cannon. 2ounces soap, plus ……ounces of water?
Wich is better for glosss meguiars or the mothers?
Can you do some tests on different microfiber towels? Thank you.

Have you tried turtle wax or mcguires ceramic wash it’s a more watery wash not very thick
Turtle wax??? To wash your car??? WTF !!!
How much wash and wax goes in it the foam canoj the bottle doesnt say.
wish you would have just tried regular dawn dish shop or the cheap bootleg stuff from dollar store
you should try out the last soap!
Try Jax Wax cannon soap its the best foamer.
You should compare that purple one with adams mega foam
Oustanding video brother 👍👏
Can you do Koch-Chemie snow foam at a later date and a Gyveon prodcut
Will you be changing from your usual Mr. Pink to this one?
I want your input on Renegade Money Shot along with their sud storm
where can I get an extension lance for reaching into the big truck engine bays
Try the Auto Fanatic snow foam.
How about superior products cherry foam?
ill get some ordered
Oreilly can get it
Yes I was gonna mention this one. Oreillys has it online only and pick up in store makes it super easy to get 👍
I use the griots as the second phase of my wash. It’s great. Yes I waste water.

What’s the foam cannon u used the second time for the second test and where can I buy one
What about just normal dawn dish soap? I mean it’s obviously not a true car wash but maybe?
Dawn is great for prepping for coating because it strips off grease and some wax or sealants
