Turtle Wax Zip Wax Super Concentrated Car Wash & Wax – 5 Litre Fast, Effective Cleaning – Brilliant Shine Every Time

I've found myself exclusively using this wash and wax shampoo as it suits my style of car washing. Specifically, I like to wash a panel, then rinse then wash and leave the soapy panel to rest while I wash another panel, then return and complete. The roof of my car gets 5-8 iterations of this treatment. By washing my car this way with this Turtlewax shampoo and wax, I found the shampoo allows a decent layer of wax on my car, and you can feel the effect increasing the slippery smoothness of the panel. However, despite many layers of the shampoo, upon the final rinse, I find there isn't a particularly hydrophobic finish. In my experience, there's no easy wash and rinse to a streak-free hydrophobic finish that beads well with this shampoo. This is why I started using the multi-layer approach, as I wasn't happy with the lack of a hydrophobic finish that beaded well, but it seems it's just not a particularly hydrophobic shampoo that gives good beading. But it suits me and I like it. I usually finish with a hydrophobic finish rinse and my car comes up a treat. and I get my water beading. Good value, but might not suit everyone.

Brilliant results

Turtle Wax Zip Wax Car Shampoo promises a lot and delivers most of it, making it a staple in my car care routine. Its super concentrated formula is not just a marketing claim; it genuinely lifts dirt, oils, and the dreaded road grime with ease, leaving my car looking as though it just rolled out of the showroom. The addition of Carnauba waxes is a bonus, offering that sought-after water repellent finish and a streak-free shine that genuinely lasts. It's refreshing to see a product live up to its promise of cleaning, shining, and protecting in one fell swoop, especially with its ease of use from wash to rinse to dry. However, the claim of needing just a capful for a "fantastic finish" might be a bit optimistic for those of us who take our car cleaning seriously or have larger vehicles to contend with. I found myself using around four caps each time to achieve the level of clean I desired, which does impact the overall value for money. Despite this, the 5L bottle still offers decent mileage, and the quality of the finish can't be understated. Overall, I'd rate Turtle Wax Zip Wax Car Shampoo a solid 4 out of 5 stars. It delivers a superior clean and shine, albeit at a slightly higher consumption rate than expected. Nonetheless, it remains a worthy investment for maintaining that showroom shine, making it a reliable choice for routine car maintenance.

Turtle Wax Zip Car Wash Wax. Good price for a 5-litre container. A capful of the Wash and Wax mixed with water cleaned the Jeep quickly with a good result. Easy to use with good foaming. The Container will last a while. Very pleased with the effectiveness.

really good car wash

I have bought this two years ago and since then I have been using it. I’ve been using this car wax shampoo and I’m really impressed with its performance. It cleans the car thoroughly while also providing a brilliant, long-lasting shine that makes the paintwork look fresh and polished. The application is easy and smooth, and it leaves no residue or streaks behind. I especially like how it enhances the gloss without making the surface feel sticky. It also seems to offer good foam and protection against dirt and water for a while after washing. Overall, this product delivers great results every time. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an effective car wash that adds a brilliant shine, and I would buy it again myself.

Good budget option for those car cleaning enthusiast. After the first time use, it cleans quickly but if you have a 4 year old that loves to clean the car and takes a lot of time it will leave streaks on the windows and spots elsewhere so you need to be quick and target sections of the car. I have used it in garden hose as well and it spreads nicely but you have to use more, don't expect too much foam via the garden hose method but you will see. I am yet to use it after the snow foam so will update if it enhances the shiny effect.

I have been using this brand of car wash for many years and although I have tried many others I always come back to Turtle Wax. Pleasant smell that easily washes off. Gives a real deep shine to the car and the rain water beads off nicely. Highly recommended.
