The best part about your videos is that you review products that I can buy at an auto parts store and they're geared toward Joe Average and some professionals.
I bought this and I’m very happy. I used turtle wax ceramic spray 2 washes ago and it’s still got beading action. I’ve used it heavy and light. If the car is super dirty then stripping wax isn’t a big deal to me now that I use spray wax.
Scott, glad you are back from vacation. Now I am able to restock the out of the box items for detailing.
It's great as a wheel cleaner in a spray bottle. Mix it about a 5 to 1 ratio and work in small areas, always rinsing it off before moving to another area. It really seems to brighten polished metal wheels and loosens brakedust to wipe away easily with very little work.
Chemical guys Diablo wheel cleaner and their brushes make wheels look brand new. I havnt tried this out yet for cleaning the wheels other than foaming and spraying it iff but this did a great job with most of the nasty shit. I'm just used to using chemical guys for the heavy shit
I'm no pro detailer so I don't know what product is top of the line but I found this to work well. I went in between the aggressive and extreme to get some decent lubricity. When just going aggressive, I found it to be too watery.
I hope this helps someone out.
When I detail a car I will use a soap that will take off road film and old wax, I will also use a paint prep as well, weather an IPA water mix or what have you to get a virgin clear coat for the polish and wax, or my 1 step method. I think I am going to purple power for a while. I really like Scotts honesty and transparency, it is refreshing to see.
Reread the bottle. It says not to dilute it into the foam cannon. I use it all the time and it foams amazing and works great at removing everything from my cars
Hiya. Glad I found this. Was worried when I put it in straight in foam cannon. I figured it dilutes when spraying, one I just did, left tons of spots, thought I screwed up the paint!!
@@paulr5027 yeah you have to read every single different type of soaps instructions. Some are ready straight out if the bottle for a foam sprayer while others have to be diluted first evem with the foam sprayer diluting it. Gotta also play around with the dilution on most bc their instructions aren't always perfect with every foam sprayer.
it doesn't say that on the bottle...
Just picked some up and used 9 ounces in a gallon spraying it from the pressure washer.
I can see where you say it's thin and doesn't have great lubricity. Appreciate knowing this.
As I will probably only use it before a paint correction or fresh sealant.
Or in spray bottles to prep rims, or areas with bugs and tar.
I think I'm washing a car differently to many detailers. I don't use a TFR shampoo, I use a concentrated form like GUNK TFR and dilute and decant into a 7Ltr spray bottle and go around spraying the lower half and skirts of the car. I'll leave it for 3-5 minutes and then pressure rinse it off before snowfoaming or bucket-washing with regular shampoo like Bilt Hamber, TWMW, or Meguiars Classic. Comes out fine every time so far.
Some interesting remarks about using TWMW as a wheel cleaner, so I'll give that a whirl. Cheers, Scott.
For paint correction, I use PP vehicle and boat wash as a foam soak in my cannon and then bucket wash with 9 ozs of TW Max Power. Strips it to the clear coat every time.
PH level 10.2 and main surfactant is sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate.
Hey Scott, welcome back! I get it Scott. Where I am located I am not able to get the PPBnW but there is Max Power Wash. I need a soap to get rid of TFR and you have answered my question. My search will continue. Thank you for the review. Love you my friend.
Try angelwax fastfoam for traffic film!
Informative as usual Scott. Purple Power also makes a soap called Prime Shine. Tested ph with litmus test strips and it's base is almost, if not as high as PP Boat and Vehicle Wash. (Prime Shine is about 9.5 or 10 on scale, where BnVW is around 10...almost 11). The ONLY difference I could see is Prime Shine leaves a shinier finish and produces more suds out of foam cannon. Prime Shine cleans really well. Between pressure washer and foam, it even removes light brake dust well enough that I haven't need to use wheel cleaner. If you can get your hands on some Scott, try it out.
3 Scott videos in one day YES
I just found your channel today. Definitely subscribing. I love your "no BS approach" in a world of snake oil. I was wondering if you could do a video about the turtle wax ice synthetic wax? I saw in the "20 way ceramic ..." Video on RUclips that the turtle wax ice last incredibly long for what it is. It also doesn't leave white residue unlike other traditional waxes. I also picked up a gallon of meguars synthetic spray wax from Amazon and it's pretty awesome stuff so far, and appears to be nearly identical to the turtle product. Let me know if you can't find that video.
Nice, I just did a video testing this products ability to remove traffic film. You are right, the biggest thing is lack of lube for hand washing.
I bought this before I found out about Purple Power vehicle wash and your experience is the same as mine. I don't really use it much except for a quick bucket and hose wash - not really anymore in my power washer...
How do you know it's stripping wax? And what does all of the terms mean. I'm just as guy trying to wash my truck.
If the paint isnt beading spray sone water and check first
Good video buddy i did a review on this 2 years ago this is a good product tfs buddy
works very well on my wheels. ( matte black, with Brembo brakes, tons of brake dust)
I get it just for that.( inexpensive and works)
I thought you said bamboo brakes 😂
Hello, What is the ratio for cleaning the wheels?
Great review! I like your accent, it’s awesome!
You should do a review on Harley-Davidson quick wash. It's a spray, seems to cut wax without agitation.
This is a perfect candidate to just add an oz of ONR for added lubrication. Then it becomes the perfect strip wash (pre rinse).
Hi Scott, can you please suggest what could be done on a dried up ceramic coating horribly done. I have a brand new truck 2018 midnight edition duramax which is 4 days old and has 75 miles on it. I messed up the ceramic coating and let it dry too much before I cleaned it up. It's on all of the outside of the truck bed. Luckily I only messed up half of the truck right. ;) I tried sanding it with 2000 grit but leaves a lot of smear and scratches. Is there any other easier way to easily take it off? It's a 9h ceramic.
So Turtle Wax Max Power at 9 ounces for gallon dilution is stronger than Purple Power for stripping wax and sealants. But Purple Power is better for removing traffic film. So if I want to clean and strip wax and sealants before I clan and apply a base sealant like Meguair's Fast Finish or DPC Armor, I can
1) Wash with Purple Power to remove traffic film and other surface dirt
2) then Wash with Turtle Wax Max Power (which is cheap compared to other paint preps like Dupli-Color Paint Prep).
3) Then I can clay using diluted WOLFGANG CONCOURS SERIES Uber Rinse Less Wash as a lubricant.
4) then apply a sealant like Meguair’s Fast Finish or DPC Armor.
Did you ever end up mixing it with something with more lubricity?
I like to use this stuff straight in a 16 oz spray bottle as wheel cleaner. Using a brush and this soap works good and easy on the wallet
I do a 3 to 1 ratio an use primarily as a wheel cleaner. I do occasionally use it to wash the car at the 6 oz mid level.
I've been testing this product. I like filling roughly 30% of the foam cannon bottle with this soap and the other 70% water. I have a bucket with wash mitts soaking I'm griots garage brilliant finish waterless wash solution. It provides that lubricate this turtle wax soap needs!
Why would you want to remove your waxes and sealants for routine washing? I would think you want those to stay on the car as long as possible. Reason being you will wash your car more often than you you will seal it or wax, especially if using a synthetic wax. You will probably be washing once every 2-3 weeks, waxing every 2-3 months and sealing every 6-8 months. The only time you might want to remove them is when you clay the car perhaps once a year. For routine washing, it would probably be best to use a carnuba wash to maintain that shine you worked so hard to seal in with sealant, and enhance with wax. You wouldnt want to strip that away and have to seal and wax again after every wash.
I wash my car weekly and use a spray wax on it every time I dry it.
Hi Scott can you do a video on how to get stains out of carpet for example motor oil
I like the meguiars wash plus soap.
Hi Scott. I can understand the confusion. The routine I feel you recommend was wash the car(Blue Coral good weather / Purple Power rainy weather), dry the car, then use Meg's fast finish. If I do this weekly or every other then neither soap will remove the fast finish so why apply right back over? Or was that for your customers that you see more than 30 days ?
Hey Scott. I have something for you to try out, I took one gallon of the purple power RV and Boat Wash and two bottles of the max power soap and mixed them. It wasn’t too bad and still cheap. I mixed it all in a 5 gallon bucket and poured it back into each container after mixed. I also used the empty TW bottles to drain spray bottles onto that are basically empty but you can still tell a little is left. I try to minimize the amount of chemicals I toss out.
Hi Scott, have you made any videos about the type of brushes you use? I took a look at your video list but could not find one.
So if I decontaminate my car with all kind of chemicals, then clean with this, it should remove a sealant thats on the end of its durabilty? Time to get my car ready for winter soon and want to apply a fresh layer on just bare paint to make the protection last most of the winter..
Could you perhaps add a dash of say N914 to increase lubricity to safely remove wax/ sealant with minimal marring?
Using this in a foam Canon it's supposed to be 1 to 1 says so on the bottle.
Adams products never disappoint
their strip wash is a huge fail in my world but their car wash is great and i agree...but wow their soap to strip wax off a car is overpriced and doesn't work well at all
Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing I mean I put half of this in my foam cannon and the other half with water and I had a sealant and wax on it and I let it sit for about 5 min and the water was still beading like crazy
Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing what strip soap do you prefer?
What's a good soap to use? One that gets rid of traffic film?
Scott can you tell me how to ....Ha ha that's all I see as comments....I think you will be the next President...love you Scott
Why would you but this knowing it would strip off the wax? Is there an advantage of stripping off wax? Should it be left on as long as possible?
Can Turtle Wax Bug and Tar remover strip wax and sealant? some reviews online says it does.
What's the best soap to removed (TRAFFIC FILM)? I washed my car in an automated car wash for too long and a white film built up in door handles and between panels.
I have found Dupont No 7 Car & Truck Wash Concentrate to be the best at that. It is an extremely good car wash formula for around 10 to 12 bucks on Amazon. It's not well known for some reason but has been around forever.
lookahere I’ll give it a try thanks!
@@Idrathernot. No problem man.
What about trim restore residue off paint ?? I put some on my trim and I guess some melted off dripped down my driver door now I can't take it off I used same brand
Can this also be done by hand washing for those who don’t have a power wash
O'Reilly's this afternoon and I seen on the Shelf purple Power has a wash and wax soap have you tried it if not will you
will it stripe ceramic coating
Scott, this sounds like a body solvent shampoo. Is it necessary?
So purple power isn't strong enough to remove waxes and sealants on its own without the paint prep?
Tundra Guy no traffic film removing soap can strip a wax if the wax was just applied within the last 30 days..yes purple power soap can remove after one wash if wax is a little older than 30 days..turtle wax can't remove wax on first wash either but it's a little better than purple power but you will need to use paint prep as well. ..i hope that makes sense. .great question
Scott Bley Sorry Scott but wrong. Max power stripped my 1 week old Collinite 476s. However I used 4 ounces in a 22 ounce spray bottle.
1221Ralph sorry Ralph but that wax is very easy to remove regardless:)..but i agree some waxes are easy to remove but that's not the case for better waxes
Scott Bley I find it hard to believe that Collinite 476s is easy to remove. It's one of the longest lasting paste waxes.
1221Ralph i like some of their products but many fall short for me but perhaps i have to revisit them
Only way I could get a foam really was not to delute it at all.
Hahahahahahaha you make me laugh every time with your occurrences. Nice video like always. Take care friend
Scott can you tell me how to clean mirrors on my car?
Do you thing this soap is agood ceramic coating prep?
Maybe it intentionally doesn’t have lubricity because they need it be abrasive to remove the waxes and sealants
Have you ever tryed
Turtle Wax Hybrid Snow Foam?
What is that for?
Hi scott .. can you do review abaut sonax color..... thanks
Would this strip bead maker sealant well?
Is this safe on ceramic coatings?
Would it be difficult to have 2 foam cannons? One with Purple Power, one with the Turtle Wax, and use one after the other?
Not at all. I actually have three and I use two for almost every wash and sometimes the third, all with different soaps / solutions / cleaners. Pop one off, pop another on and you have a different cleaner. Beats having to empty / flush / fill to change cleaners.
I have a very basic question. How can you tell if there is traffic film on you're car, after a wash, regardless of the soap you are using?
Will this remove seal n shine?
No, I put 9+ ounces in my foam cannon damn near undiluted I’ve washed the car twice and it’s still on there. Turtle wax needs to make a product specifically designed to remove seal n shine cause boy is it a stubborn bastard
Knavar thats good thoe cause we want our cars protected 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 but i agree we need a stripper chemical
I tried this one but find it to be garbage.
Bought it for my detail shop but didn't perform well so I brought it home and use it to clean my mowers.
All hype..
Are you saying this product will strip all the carnuba wax from my car
If you use more than 5 oz of this stuff. Use 3-4 oz in a foam cannon, diluted with water and it won’t strip wax.
I would recommend not diluting this stuff in the foam cannon. I used this stuff all the time and when not diluted, there's much better lubrication, not the best, but enough.
Has anyone used this in a power washer??
Guess my post didn't post the first time. Anyway love your RUclips videos.
Does this work with a electrical pressure washer and foam cannon?thanks
yes and in this video i used a electric power washer and a mtm foam cannon
So great and weird because I was just about to do something similar to what you explain in the video. I have never clayed my cars and recently got a greenwork pressure washer like you recommended. Thank you for the informative videos. I appreciate my cars a lot more and save time and money by watching your channels. 👍🙏
It didn’t remove the sealant and wax on my charger and I let it sit on there for awhile I just didn’t get it the strip wash from Adams does work really well but it is expensive
Hi Kevin,
First off what sealant & wax are you using on your Charger? And how long have both products been applied to the vehicle?
Trent Hallmark Adams paint sealant and Adams buttery wax
Okay, how long have both products been on the panel?
why review this shampoo as a snow foam???
What is a paint prep. Can you give me a name of a product please?
tom martin ruclips.net/video/UBvSC3ITDjQ/видео.html
When painting a car you want a degreaser before actually painting over the service. You can find it in different brands, some are better than others. Not sure which kind Scott uses but you can buy it at any auto parts store or walmart.
Reminds of the old Dawn soap debate. Dilute it enough and it wouldn’t hurt a baby’s butt.
will it stripe wax on my car if i use 3 Oz
Anybody else use this in a bottle as APC?
Guys... Does it has "WAX" including this product ?!!! Direct answer please !!!
No! It does not!
Ok I know this video is old, but I just Don't understand why every time I watch a video from this channel, it's dumb.
Just used this product for the first time, not impressed, came to see what others have to say about it.
But here he uses the foam cannon and dilutes it.
Clearly on the bottle it states if you are using a foam Canon DO NOT DILUTE! WTH? Not even gunna finish watching this. Tired if these youtubers wasting my time
I use this stuff and I diluted with water so it won’t strip the wax/sealant. It’s not bad for 7 bucks.
I literally bought this product today to strip the sealant and it didn’t work I used at least 12 oz
it depends on how long your wax has been on the car..is it older than 30 days old?
Not the wax but the sealant is it’s because I’m trying to apply a ceramic coating
Kevin C you would be surprised how well dawn soap works. I ceramic coated 5 vehicles now and used Chemical guys clean slate and dawn together and it does a great job. Now I just use dawn and it works great but scott turned me on to dupli color paint prep which gets the job done even better.
I bought this stuff but is all about marketing, even the color of the soap this flashing atractive green looks like is going to leave your car like it was new by magic
These stuff are garbage, worst product I ever bought for my car. It leaves a white color stain after washing the car. I hate it so much I'm thinking about throwing it right back to the park with a loose cap, here keep the $4 dollar garbage as crap son.
Ethan Young just used this on my black car and it left a film that is almost impossible to get off
just add some Greased Lightning MUCH Better then Purple Power !

Complete waste of time and money. Add and ounce or two of APC or degreaser to ANY soap for a strip wash/tfr wash. This whole traffic film removal theory is more industry hype. Foam cannons are the best way to waste money on product. Keep it simple people. Rinseless wash, paint prep or ipa, clay bar, seal/wax
That is completely misleading because the term APC is a huge variety of different things. Everything to a basic alcohol based simple green to something like purple power. So thanks for showing your knowledge so we know to disregard everything else you said.
Vincent Valentine, it matters not all the same. You've missed the point exactly. The point is to remove wax sealant and or traffic film in the most economical way
To me, I would think since most of the traffic film is on top of the wax or sealant, that the best way to remove the traffic film it to remove the sealant or wax. If you really want to strip it down fast and efficiently, use a hand pump sprayer with 1:1 degreaser and spray the car. By the time you get around the whole car it’s probably ready to soap up the car however you wish.
What APC you reccomend?
So is Meguair’s All Purpose Cleaner enough to completely remove traffic film and strip wax and sealants?
FIRST!!!!😃
Are people paying you to review their products? I watch a lot of detailing videos and it seems more like you and other detailers are reviewing products to gain money rather than to tell the beginning detail the best product to use.
That is some horrible foam
Brandon Morfin it's not meant to foam...
y @@1221Ralph
TALKS TOO MUCH
You were saying the samething about purple power soap that you were all in love with. Now your saying this!? You're losing me here scott you say one thing then in a few weeks your saying another. You're losing me. Look either it IS or it ISENT don't make things complicated.....
Lucas Ornelas i agree.
purple power was the best thing since sliced bread a couple months ago.
now its caca
Richard Johnson exactly.
perhaps i haven't explained it well and I'm sorry...no traffic film remover soap can remove a fresh wax within 30 DAYS..after 30 days purple power will remove the wax without paint prep and it has better cleaning ability than turtle wax and better lubrication..i didn't mean to lose you and i would not use this soap all the time and prefer purple power so I'm not sure how i lost you?...so sorry my friend:)
Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing you are right Scott but in the next few months you'll be saying something completely different from now. I get it... your testing and learning new things as you go. Learning never ends. It just makes me upset and makes me feel now I need to return purple power wash and get turtle wax soap instead. I've gotten quite a few items you've recommended as I'm sure we all have but your turning into a salesman now. Maybe you've found an art that your good at? I get it there your opinions expressed but I'm sure we all rely on your understanding and wisdom after doing it so many years I definitely trust you.
i think you both lost the point..i said purple power has better lubrication and better traffic film removing ability, but this turtle wax can remove wax a LITTLE better but it comes with lack of lubrication and lack of cleaning power so i wouldn't pick this soap over purple power...i think you both lost the point and i said i wouldn't use this unless i was going to do paint correction but i don't feel the same about purple power...im not really sure how i could explain it better and I'm so sorry if i confused you both
