A customer favorite

Highly Rated In The Car Care Community

Car shampoo was one of our first products and one that we can honestly say is a near perfect blend. With our Car Shampoo you can literally let the foam sit on your vehicle all day, in the sun and it will rinse off clean without any left over residue.

Gently glide dirt and debris off paintwork

Perfect For Weekly Washing

Car shampoo is powerful, yet gentle and safe. When released through your wash mitt, foam gun or foam cannon, it provides a thick, clinging foam that lubricates the surfaces, pulls out the dirt and rinses off clean, leaving a high gloss shine.

Where to use car shampoo?

Bucket, Foam Gun or Foam Cannon

At Adam's we recommend using our Car Shampoo with a Wash Bucket and a Foam Gun or Foam Cannon. Click through the carousel to see how our Car Shampoo works with these detailing tools.

How it works

Car Shampoo + Wash Bucket

In a bucket, you only need two-ounces of Car Shampoo. We recommend applying soap directly onto your wash pad or mitt, and then filling the bucket with water. Instantly, you'll notice thick, luxurious, foaming bubbles. The formula acts as a lubricant when gliding on your paint.

How it works

Car Shampoo + Foam Gun

A foam gun is a simple detailing tool that produces moderate foam. In comparison to a foam cannon, foam guns produce less foam. Foam guns are still an effective foaming tool that connects to any garden hose without the need to purchase a washer. Adam's Foam Gun's are 35-ounce canisters that require only 4-ounces of Car shampoo.

• Pro-Tip: Before adding shampoo to your Foam Gun, add water! Otherwise, you'll be playing in bubbles instead of washing your car.

How it works

Car Shampoo + Foam Cannon

Adam's Foam Cannon produces the most foam out of any detailing tool on the market. Foam Cannons do not attach to a garden hose and require a pressure washer for use. For best results, we recommend using 4-ounces of Car Shampoo.

• Pro-Tip: Before adding Car Shampoo to your Foam Cannon, add water! Otherwise, you'll be playing in bubbles instead of washing your car.

Adam's keys to washing

Introduction To Washing

Improper washing technique is the #1 culprit for creating swirl marks in the finish of your vehicle. If you’ve spent many hours in the garage or driveway polishing your vehicle to near-perfection, the last thing you want to do is an incorrect wash process, which can reintroduce imperfections like swirl marks, haze, and scratches back into the finish!

Two is better than one

Two Bucket Washing Method

One very important aspect of safely washing your vehicle is the Two Bucket Wash Method. For those not familiar with what this is, the Two Bucket Wash involves having one bucket for your premium car shampoo and a second bucket filled with clean water. Both buckets should have a Grit Guard at the bottom of the bucket, to act as a dirt filtering system. Clean water with a Grit Guard is used to clean your mitt, while the other is filled with soapy water to reintroduce soapy suds to your paint.

Pad, mitt or sponge?

Use High-Quality Scrubbing Options

Remember, wash pads are one of the items in your detailing arsenal that touch your vehicle the most, so it’s extremely important to choose the best scrubbing option for your vehicle to keep it looking its absolute best. There are several types, such as wool, microfiber or chenille. In selecting the right accessory, it needs to be very soft, very absorbent, won't break down on you, and traps dirt in the deep pile microfiber. Adam's scrubbing tools are tested for premium results.

Safe drying methods

Drying Towels or Air-Forced Dryers

The last thing to consider before washing your car is what type of drying products you will use. If you are looking for the safest way to dry your vehicle, we recommend our Air Cannons, which blow heated, filtered air for a spotless finish. Alternatively, our Ultra Plush Drying Towel is perfect as one of the final media to touch your vehicle during the wash process, as it is a large, soft and absorbent microfiber towel.

Pro-Tip: Use Adam's Detail Spray as a drying aid to avoid spotting
