About this item

  • 12 plus YEARS OF SUPER SUDS – Maxi Suds II has been available on Amazon since 2010 and has been a customer favorite of Chemical Guys fans dating back to our early days selling at car shows. Fans have loved it so much we introduced two additional scents so users can mix it up when they wash their car - cherry (original), grape rush and strawberry margarita.
  • WHAT'S SO DIFFERENT ABOUT IT - Maxi Suds has a unique formulation with water softeners which help reduce streaking and water spots. It can also be used outside in the sun while still delivering great results.
  • IT'S VERSATILE – Maxi Suds can be used on any color car and since it's pH balanced, it won't remove your wax or sealant. Also, whether you are washing with a wash mitt and bucket, a foam gun connected to your garden hose or a foam cannon connected to your pressure washer, Maxi Suds will deliver loads of foam and suds to get a great wash.
  • CONCENTRATED – A little bit goes a long way. Just add 1 oz. of Maxi Suds to a 5 gallon wash bucket or to a 2 oz. solution tank for your foam cannon or foam gun and you are ready to experience a foam frenzy.
  • BEGINNER AND PROFESSIONAL DETAILER FRIENDLY – Chemical Guys makes products for beginners and experts alike. Chemical Guys products are professional grade to get the best results and are also simple enough for even a beginner to achieve immediate results. This soap was made in the USA.
  • SMELLS GREAT, LOOKS GREAT, FEELS GREAT – Washing your car should not only be fun, but it should make you feel good. It makes you feel awesome when your ride looks clean and new. We’ve created Maxi Suds to not only make your wash better and easier, but also, any of our three scents smell great and add to your car washing experience.
  • MADE IN AMERICA – Each bottle of Maxi Suds is proudly produced in the USA. We celebrate the happiness of clean cars each day in our Southern California headquarters as well as our Detail Garage retail store locations throughout the country.

GREAT Suds BATMAN!
5 Stars
GREAT Suds BATMAN!
Sudsy soapy soap... soap that sticks and is slippery, all in one!Scent is great... kind of wish it stuck around after rinsing lolSprayed with a foam cannon from a Karcher electric pressure washer.First pic is just a QUICK spray... to see how it stuck when put on lightly.2nd pic is more of a "full coverage" pass as seen in the video. It doesn't take much... this stuff sticks and doesn't run.In fact... 30-40min later, when I went to leave, there were still suds in the driveway... and I had rinsed most of it down!!It does seem to take awhile to rinse it all away. Like it kept sudsing up from what was coming out of door channels, running from behind roof rack, etc.I let it soak as I sprayed the whole truck down and took my time getting the wash mitt out. Nothing was really CAKED on, but everything seemed to wipe off easily. Not saying the soap is magic... but it worked as well or better than any other I've had!I use a an RV water softener on the hose to rinse it and it sprayed off nearly perfectly clean... no soap streaking at all with just a quick drive (no towels used... I was in a hurry)ONE COMPLAINT. Weak bottle? I have no idea how, but the bottom corner of the jug got dented.... which apparently caused a hole... and ~1/3 of the soap ran out the bottom into my 5gal bucket (that also had all my other wash gear in it). Salvaged a lot of it by topping off my spray bottle, refilling another brand's soap bottle, and currently storing this jug on its side to keep soap from running out until I can get around to using it up.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is great soap!
Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2018
I really like the foaming action of this soap. I have seen that some people have said that it didn't remove road grime, tar and bugs, but I didn't expect it to by spraying alone.

Instead of a two bucket wash system I use a no bucket system.

1. I first power wash my vehicle with plain water. This gets most of the loose dirt and contaminates off, as well as get the bugs wet for the next step.

2. I load my foam cannon with soap, attach it to my power washer and give the vehicle a thick coating of soap. When the whole car is saturated with soap, I use my microfiber sponge to start washing the same area that I first began applying the soap. I then scrub the whole car paying special attention to areas where the bugs and tar are concentrated.

3. I then begin rinsing my car with the power washer with the white nozzle. The power washer removed the already softened bugs and that weren't removed during the previous two steps.

After step 3 around 99% of the bugs and tar are gone.

Please know that I haven't wash this vehicle in 3 months. I just recently purchased a Greenworks 1,600 PSI power washer and another brand of foam cannon.

My car is 10 Years Old and has over 103,000 miles on it.

Good luck with your washing projects. My next project will be washing my house. It is almost 4 years old and is showing some signs of dirt over the winter.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 22, 2023
Good points, it's very concentrated so goes a long way. Used with a brush it cleans off dirt well.
Disappointed though as it doesn't take the dirt off without using the brush. The two photos are after leaving the snow foam on for several minutes. It made no difference to the car, even the polished paintwork of one car still looked dull until I washed it again with the brush. Years ago I had snow foam that really cleaned a car but I guess environmentalists have put a stop to whatever was in it as nothing I can buy today is anywhere near as good. In short, yes it's a good detergent but no better than many others on the market.
