Ic3ncok3 Neutral Newbie December 28, 2005 Share December 28, 2005 this might sound silly but has any1 tried using dettol shower foam to wash their cars? reasoning behind my asking comes from trying to wash my empty soft99 authentic wax can. i noticed that the dettol shower foam could not wash away the carnauba wax. but the lux shower foam could. i believe dettol shower foam is pretty effective in washing off stuff like shoe polish and SAF camou (the stick type, not the water based type) but it doesnt seem to be able to do anything to carnauba wax. soooooo, maybe we could use it to wash our cars and not harm the carnauba? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raycsk Neutral Newbie December 29, 2005 Share December 29, 2005 Here's one for you... Have you thought of using Car Wash Shampoo as shower foam? Soaps are formulated according to what they are intended for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toalson 1st Gear December 29, 2005 Share December 29, 2005 Yup I know i'm a little But water free and got hose. But if weather is hot and shiny then most likely just do a quickie if not I'm all In fact most of my collueages also think i'm cos mostly after wash in the afternoon, by the time leaving office it rains.....
