View Full Version : Auto-Gylm
Is there a special way to wash your car using this that im unaware of :?
I ran out of car shampoo last week so thought i'd buy a bottle of this, so i wash my car as i always do, then when i come back out to my car about 1hr or so later it hasnt removed any much what so ever :x
IMO it is absoluity rubbish
And before you's say i am capable of washing my car vvv

I just found this to be totally useless, and wondered what is wrong before i bin it :(
the auto-gylm shanpoo is not good at all have been using it on mine and i will not go use it ever again i might as well just use water
I know it's poop :(
I managed to scrape alittle bit of my old shampoo out so still managed to clean it before i waxed it :)

shampoo that just doesnt want to bubble? whats that all about.
Mguires is teh way forward or the good ol 2ltr bottle of tutlewax is the daddy!
i use auto glym on mine & works a treat, although did use some concentrated stuff that dad got with his RX-8 that stuff is the daddy. Now back to auto glym
maybe u think if it lathers it cleans well?
if no bubbles then it doesnt clean well?
The concentrated stuff i used doesnt lather & gets anything off the car.

Try Meguires (cant spell) always the best in my opinion for a similar price
meguiars is good but i also find auto glym to be class, never had a prob with it on my car, i'll use either

Nope rinsed my car as always then sponged down with the auto-gylm then shamonised (sp) it all dry like i always have done when i've washed my car, all looked nice until about an hours later when i went back to the car a realised it hadnt removed any much whats so ever :x
It's totally poo i think i'll stick to what i always use just got to save £30 for a bottle now :(
Use meguires gold class and its brilliant bubbles in the bucket but no bubbles go on the car. followed by a chamios, polish and wax cant fault it.

then seal it and you'll lock the shine in for months opposed to weeks.
I used to be an Autoglym user. Used it for years and was always impressed.
Then when I ran out I thought I would use Meguires for a change, totally blown away by the quality, will stick with it now :thumbs:

I haven't been on here for a few weeks and was just about to put up a post about Auto-Glym. I'm really, really unimpressed by their stuff. Last year I washed my car once with their car wash stuff and thought it was awful, I then used their car polish and that was terrible as well- took loads of effort to get the residue off and then there was white bits everywhere- and finally, a few weeks ago I was recommended their Bumper Care stuff as previously I'd used Back to Black and that was pretty poor- so, rubbed all my bumpers clean with Bumper Care and was really impressed with the results- then washed my car and the whole thing went streaky as f**k, I was so annoyed. So, I think from now I'll stick to Meguairs- have been using their Soft Wash Gel and wax for a year now, and today bought some of their Nxt Generation Bumper stuff....its miles better than Auto-Glym any day.
