By far the best I have used so far are the Dodo Juice Shampoo's. Give a great lather, smell fantastic and make the bodywork easier to dry.  :happy2:

Zipwax?  :surprised:

A good one to try would be Duragloss Cherry Wash - it's a concentrated formula so dilution ratio is good, making it an excellent value for money product, and coupled with that, it's an excellent shampoo too!

Or you've got the three shampoos from Dodo Juice - Born to be Mild, Sour Power and Supernatural... all of them are pH neutral and are good maintenance shampoos.

Hope this helps

I so actually did tell you we do Cherry Shampoo, and if I knew how to use the search thingamejig, I'd find the thread and show you!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

It was one where Keith was saying about Cherry Snow Foam (which we also do, but actually haven't told you about yet  :ashamed:) and I told you that you should check out our Cherry Wash... Remember?

You even sent me a PM about it!!!  :chicken:

We've got a group buy running - we need to get up to six to get the price, which is £45.99 for a foam lance and 1 litre of snow foam.  It's a lot of money, but it's a good investment and it's great fun too!  :smiley:

They come with all different fitments so if you have a Karcher pressure washer, we would supply it with a Karcher fitment and it should fit... the only one that's different is if you have a Karcher Pro.

This is the group buy thread

Hi Ed,

We've got the order come through but you're right, the discount code wasn't on there.  It's up and running and we've not had any issues with it so not sure what went wrong  :confused:

We'll pop something in with your order to make up the difference  :happy2:

All the best
