Chemical Guys soaps and cleaners are legit. I got started on them with a birthday bucket, too.
I use the Mr. Pink soap for hand washing and the Honeydew Snow Foam for my new foam canon and pressure washer setup
The foam canon is a
cheaper version of the Chem Guys foam canon. Their stuff also tend to have nice smells; Mr. Pink smells like old school bubble bath, Honeydew smells like, well, Honeydew, and The Speed Wipe smells like Cherries. It's not necessary, but it's fun.
Their tools (rag, sponges, sprayers, brushes) are overpriced IMO. The "
Torq Foam Blaster" that hooks to your garden hose is doesn't work as well and isn't worth the money/time. It gives much more watery foam, which dries faster leaving soap spots. That being said, I use their green wash mitt. I also have a half dozen plush microfiber towels to dry the car and then use a bulk-pack of generic microfiber cloths to wipe down everything else.
I've never been let down by the cleaners either. Total Interior does it all and doesn't leave a greasy shine like a protectant. I use it on all interior as a quick wipe down. The Leather Cleaner, which is also a mild conditioner, is what I've used on my seats a couple times. It cleans well and smells nice. The seats/wheel/dash are slick for a few days, but it fades quickly.
The Chem Guys wheel cleaner is good, but kind of pricey. Meguiar's makes a version that is a better value.
I can't clean a pane of auto glass to save my life, so no help there. No matter what I use, I get streaks. My best luck has been with Chem Guys Signature series glass cleaner. The Streak Free isn't so streak free for me.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
