What are the best products to wash a car with?
I bought a brand new Subaru Crosstrek a few weeks ago. Now it’s time to give it a bath—what are the best products to wash a car with?

Oh my—this is a debatable topic, and car owners are typically very loyal to their favorite cleaning product. However, one thing to keep in mind is Consumer Reports’ recommendation not to use dishwashing liquid and other household detergents. These agents can damage your vehicle’s clearcoat.
The list below contains recommendations from various car and consumer sites:
Site | Recommendations |
|---|---|
Consumer Reports | Avoid household cleaning supplies and use only soap designed for cars |
Car and Driver | Meguiars Gold Class Car Wash |
Insider | Chemical Guys Snow Foam Car Wash |
CNET | Adam’s Car Wash Shampoo |
