What kind of soap do u all use?

I use mothers soap and sometimes Meguairs because they claim not to remove wax. since i have a black car i need all the wax i can have on it to make it look good. so i am just wondering if there are any other good kinds to use that wont remove wax.

Personally I use Zaino's car wash, however, that is also die ot the fact that I use Zaino polish. In reality, any good Car Wash brand of soap should work ok. They are PH balanced and formulated not to remove wax.

I've been using Zaino since I got my MB. It is the best product that I have ever used (I hear good things about Klasse, but I have yet to try it). It is very user friendly; goes on quick, and wipes off quick. I normally put a coat of polish on about once a month. Some people complain about the process in that you have to wait a good deal of time in between coats (although you can purchase an accellerator to shorten the time), but it doesn't bother me at all.

Before using Zaino Z7 wash, which would be harsh on a Carunuba waxed car, I used P21S Bodywork Conditioning Shampoo. It has a nice smell, and out of all the washes I have used, seems the most gentle.

for regular washing i highly recommend Meguiars Gold Class shampoo. It is $9.99 at Target for a whole gallon! I use it for a lot of stuff, clay lube, washing rims on my zainoed cars, and to wash all other cars not protected with zaino.
