To be honest, I never paid much attention to car soaps, usually grabbing whatever was inexpensive on the Pep boys shelfs..
What I have observed with Griots is you need VERY LITTLE and it sudz up great, and holds it suds thru-out the wash.
The first time I visited Griots, an Asian man from Montreal was in town getting a factory tour of Griots, he owned his own detail business in Montreal and was kind enough to take a look at my car (along with a Griots techy) in regards to my concern of the Boars hair brush when I returned that product...anyway, he went thru a 15 min "proper washing" technique that I follow religiously, as silly as it sounds..this gentleman was very animate of his work and appreciation he is rewarded with via his customers.
His method was to use 1/2 the recommended soap on Griots product ( 1/2 oz per 2 gallons instead of 1 oz )..then filling the bucket 2/3 with hot water, without letting is sudz up(low water pressure). Allow the product to dissipate and totally dissolve for a few min. before turning on the hose outside and shooting cold water (carefully) to fill the bucket...the result is a beautiful head of sudz that will still be present as you finish your wheels off last.
He also covered proper technique (linear motions, one side of pad, flip other side of pad, then second rinse bucket) etc.
