Summary of the following car soaps. Poorboys, Pinnacle, Wolfgang, Sonus, Meguiars.

Pinnacle seems to perform the best out of all of them. Has lots of suds, smells like coconut, and super slick (slicker than all the others). The big down fall to this one is the price, 70 bucks a gallon ouch :?

Poorboys is my main car soap. It has lots of suds and is very slick on the paint. The soap has a nice clean smell to it too. The quality of this soap is excellent for it price tag and performs better or the same as more expensive soaps.
The Wolfgang soap is on par with the poorboys one. It might be just a little slicker but hard to tell for sure.

The Sonus one seems to perform like Meguiars or other over the counter stuff at stores. It makes suds in the bucket but seems to go away when you start wiping it on the car. Might be some what slicker on the paint than over the counter stuff but not as slick as poorboys.

Meguires is the best wash for just getting the job done. Not super slick or tons of suds like poorboys but has enough to get the job done at a low price.

Thanks for the write ups and reviews Ballswaldo!
If you have not tried Four Star Ultimate I suggest giving that one a try when you need some more car shampoo.

Nice reviews!

Danase' Foaming Wash is very close in suds/slickness to PB SSS and Wolfgang, but much cheaper. You might want to check that out. :wink:
