Well, I DO baby my car, but baby shampoo and oil?
Wouldn't the baby oil attract every dust mote in the world?
I think I'll stick to using the baby oil on my wife.

Stick to car wash soaps and cleaners...designed for the car and not a baby!


ya i agree with mygt500.. car wash is made just for cleaning and maintaning your car. as baby shampoo is for small children.
and i would hope big companies know what there doing know what there doing when they make this stuff.

hahaha, ive heard of some DIY household cleaning but jeeeeeeeeze!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "hmmm, i think im going to rub a couple sticks of butter on my car for more of a wet look" thats basically what you guys are saying. better yet! lets use conola oil instead of the usual 10w-30... hmmmm yeah.... that will work. theres auto soaps and waxes... etc for a reason. this time, how about we all think inside the box. just this time. hahaha!

 after getting his car painted ,my neighbor  only washed his car in johnsons baby shampoo & only used turtle wax  on it for years. don't think it harmed the paint, but it faded like most paint jobs after several years.  i would use car wash soap made for washing cars since this is what it is made to do. but to each his own.

Do it if you want to strip off the wax.

I don't know guys, I think it's worth it for someone to try it just to say "clean like a baby's bottom" after they're done.

Nobody is saying that but you. Yah your examples really prove a very intelligent point....especially the butter.. besides the harmful oil, the sticky substance, and ants be crawling on your car, it does make the car have that "wet look"..!!

Way to go to make a comparison man...

how about this:

http://www.phantomplate.com/ .. people paid money for it.. well it turns out, hairspray can do the same ****.. so if someone slaps a sticker of "Car wash soap" on a baby shampoo, with your concept, i guess it's okay to use?

why are you trying to avoid car soap? are you afraid its going to harm the paint? I cant imagine its a price thing considering the millionare "nextdoor" is using it.

Try it. If it doesn't work, go back to what you were doing. Some of the best discoveries have been made by accident.

no one is avoiding or afraid of car soap homie.. just looking into other options.. maybe it's better maybe it's not.. that's why i started the thread.

I've done it before ( grabbed wrong bottle from under the sink ) really got the car squeeky clean. Probably stripped all the wax off. My car wash of choice is Mequiars.
