Long Haul Truck Wash - 09-10-2008, 02:26 PM

is what I used today on my car along with Natty's Red and Spray and Gloss.
I have/had a 4 ounce bottle Long Haul Truck Wash that was sitting on a shelf for quite a while.
Here's the quick review.
I poured an ounce and a half into a bucket.
It sudsed up decently but had no longevity.
It cleaned good enough but then again my car wasn't terribly dirty.
My car was slick and shiney to begin and I feel the wash did not hurt either as when I was finished the paint glistened in the sun and the drying towel slid acrossed the sufaces.
Of course the sun was trying to dry the soap on the paint but I continually showered the car with water.
Onced finished I did the flood and dried the car.
Not my favorite carwash product but I wouldn't hesitate to buy/use the Long Hauler.

Yes my car has another coat of Natty's Red on it.

What color is your car?

Metallic or non?


Any issues with hazing at all?

If my daughter can leave her car home long enough I'd like to try some Zymol Titanium on it.If she's not at school she's at work so I might just do a wash and Spray and Gloss on mine.Use up all The Long Haul Truck Wash.

Provided the price was right.

You'll find only old stock now. Long Haul didn't make it through the long haul.

But, if what I've read is true, Race Glaze (Not the UK brand) and Wizards should be quite similar.
