This is a good example of companies making products for its intended target market. Thank god we have people like yourself helping us decide what camp we see value in. Personally I’d spend more on performance and ease of use, but for those who have not interest in car care the biggest bottle wins every time.

Great video again, love the new starting titles too. Watched both videos and can see the arguments for both sides, with my knowledge base and still got a lot to learn I'll go with what i know works for me.

Loving the new opening credit. Video was brilliant as per usual. A informative video explaining that cheap vs expensive.

I love the the new intro Specky 😊. Interesting conclusion. I would consider the Orange as quick wash down from a particular dirty journey- sort of wash between maintenance and deep clean wash. Shall watch Pauls now to see the hard water difference 😊

Love the new open title sequence 👍 Watched both videos you both made, I think you get what you pay for in most cases with detailing products.

Excellent video buddy Absolutely loved it I’m a fan on slick N Slide

Big fan of your videos, style and methodology.

Great video mate 👍 thanks for doing the comparison so we don’t have to. When you and Paul were talking about the price that you got it for with free delivery, I thought I need to go and check this out and luckily I gave it a miss. I also checked out the grit guards from the range and that was a no from me also 😂

I do enjoy a Cheap vs Expensive comparison and how fairly you did this video. Hope you stick with them mate.

Great comparison Specky.

I remember back in the day when you had a plastic sachets of turtles wax shampoo you didn’t have much options for car wash used to wash the local taxi company cars 5in a morning tyre slick applied with a brush

Quite an interesting video. Never really been a fan of Turtle wax, but with the recent launch of new products I’ve tried a few and been pleasantly impressed with some of them. Tried the Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Wash & Wax shampoo and it’s very similar, no duds at all but leaves a nice hydrophobic layer behind. Just something not right about washing a car with no suds. 🧐👌🏻the Graphene QD is pretty good too.

Great video sir. I have to say I use the ‘cheap’ TW orange water shampoo if I’m doing a quick wash. It’s not perfect BUT for the price, with free delivery… I have no complaints. It foams up well if you add the shampoo first then the water. I always finish a wash, even a quick one, with a rub over with some sort of detailing spray or wax, just to get a good shine. The old adage; ‘you get what you for’ never lets me down in life

Hello Specky, great video,the comparison between budget and expensive products when I wash my car,i want to know it has suds and slickness.

Hey Specky! What coating have you on that bin in the opening shot? Looks very shiny 😂

I couldn't help but smile. 10:16 When you had used rhe big orange in the lance and started using the mitt, did you cough up a greeny to add some lubrication? 😅

Love your Video Specky, Good comparison video! Phil the beautiful helper gives you the edge over Paul😂

Interesting ;) You do say that a lot in this one. A sunny day in Scotland is like hens teeth. With regards to the Big Orange, firstly with the bucket size, I'd probably go to the turtle wax us web site and find out what they would class as a bucket. Without looking, i would assume that the majority of US use the 3-5 gallons (US) size buckets, so base my assumption based on the fact that this a US product. The second point is, that this shampoo, has a wax of some description in it, according to TW web site, so you would have gotten a better result with warm water to better suspend the wax content in the solution and might have gotten a better result on the panel. Also with this type of product you want want to use a cloth to wash, or go back over the panel with a cloth to even out the wax on the panel. I don't think it explicitly tells you on the bottle that it has a wax in it, so you were correct saying it left something behind. 3rd point does it not say to add the shampoo to the bucket, then fill the bucket with a strong stream of water? anyhoo, I don't think the outcome would have massively changed, but how can we be sure ;) With the instructions on the bottle, you followed them correctly, but its not the best result you could have gotten, fair play. With slick n slide in the foam cannon did you use warm water? we site instructions say use warm water in the foam cannon. Did you use a different mitt with this, as if not, it could have been covered in wax from the previous test. You also didn't cover that this could be used as a clay lube while washing, a massive time saver. I find that turtle wax shampoos don't have enough cleaning power for my liking. Been using the old hybrid snow foam, with bubble-gum scent for a few years now and even at max dilution, its pretty weedy in the cleaning department, but again is a wash n wax, and using warm water definitely helps with upping the bite and finish. It was a good buy and has lasted way way longer than I expected 5l to last, and was a fantastic bargain, but so was the Bilt hamber shampoo. I wonder if adding in ONR would up the slickness, or even TW power max shampoo? Good Vid, as always.

For the weekend warrior products I've always assumed a bucket as your typical builders black 10 litre buckets as it's what we all use

Would have to work out like for like monetary wise , therefore you could use far more if the cheaper one, that would give a true representation of whether it was good value or not

Cheap one not for me but maybe I have been in Glasgow too long and my NE blood running thin now. The expensive one I looked at when I ordered the Tyre cleaning products recently with the Graphene tyre shine but I passed on the shampoo as I had plenty in reserve. Are you off to Waxstock at the weekend ?.

Most companies who uses this so much product per bucket. I just understand it to be 1 ounce per gallon of water. Thats kinda the standard, here in the US. I never seen any weaker dilutions than that

If the advised ratio in a foam lance is 100ml to 1l the measures you should be using in your 600ml cannon would surely be 50ml to 500ml

I have never used these TW products? I've used their Ceramic Hybrid Shampoo, not impressed with that product. I do like some of the TW hybrid products and they are made in the State where I live, a plus for me. I try to use American made products when possible and may consider the slick 'n slide product. I am currently using a shampoo from 3D called nano shampoo. 64 oz makes 5 gallons of shampoo for only $40 US. I put about 1 oz per 2-3 gallons of water or 1 oz per foam gun. I am very impressed with the lubricity. I do listen to your & Paul's podcast, even though I wouldn't or couldn't buy some of the chemicals you use? But still entertaining...

The pure shampoo is the only TW product i own, but love it, smells great as well

Tried the cheap ones also, end up using so much more . Went to autobrite purple velvet and like night and day. But my last bottle I've got doesn't seem as foamy as I remember. Wondering if they have changed the recipe . Next bottle I will try garage therapy

Is big orange not more like a weak tfr anyway I don't think it's really meant to be a regular wash if you have a waxes or coated car as it would possibly degrade as it's a citrus cleaner.

Unrelated to this video but koch chemie green star would it damage existing protection and would it be a good cleaner for wiper blades ?

Specky will be a good comparison not just on price but on water ppm/hardness soft scottish water given galasgow is 36ppm v english harder water on 100ppm /500+ how the results differ with temps love your vids and paul dalton and also vickys i hve leaned so much keep up the good work all🙂

Nice comparison Craig - strange that TW who a always covered the “budget” market very well, chose to make their “premium” shampoo incredibly expensive. I expect their Zip Wax will be worth the extra cost over that orange water for the majority of uninterested car washers. As for the enthusiasts, one of the super slick, super concentrated, products from scene brands will do at least as good a job as the SnS for a much lower cost per wash. How are you getting on with the Ava - still loving it?

Another interesting video the big orange looks just awful toh but as well as my car I wash a few neighbours car and I always keep a 5l of simoniz 2 in 1 which can be had on Amazon for roughly ten to eleven quid for 5 litres is awesome value. It's great in a foam cannon and great as a wash. For price it's a must have in the arsenal of cleaning products. Currently using prokleen snow foam which I use on my main car and it's decently priced as well in a world where some stuff are priced ott. Enjoying the content.

A standard buckett is 2 gallon.(farm,gardening bucket) so 2 cap full to 10 letiers sounds bout rite

I think the results were predictable to be fair. But it did demo a point made in one of the podcasts. I will though, be sticking to GT Shampoo. But to be honest, considering what Turtle Wax did to Jay at Bouncers, I'd encourage everyone not to buy a Turtle Wax product.

Jesus, to be fair you kept overflowing the bucket of water when filling the big orange bucket. Absolutely no need to fill a bucket that much. Fill half way, then put your 4 caps in and then fill another bit with the gun. I use it for my wheels, my partners & daughter's car and it works well. I use slick n slide or labcosmetica semper on my own car 👍 seriously though, a good little topic for the podcast would be WHY does every detailing KZfaqr feel the need to overflow their bloody buckets. It's my pet hate😤 rant over 😆🤙

If i had to pick one shampoo to use for the rest of my life i would go for GT v2, but i am enjoying diy details incredible suds its just more fun to wash the car with more suds

Was it not an option to use the Big Orange shampoo pure in the Foamlance...🤔😲😂

interesting that. I'm not sure I'm won on either in a lance but you can't test oranges against bananas and have a fair result . Maybe the 5 litre is aimed more at you commercial user ? Stuff we use is like water but has NO instructions on the tub so it's just a couple of glugs into the bucket . Good review though , bound to be other products like this with clearer results , and not just shampoos . Often think with some waxes n polishes does spending an extra 10 , 15 or 20 even on a product up their range mean I'm getting a noticeable result ? Harder to test that I guess in finishes it's more user experience. Right off to watch Paul's review

Paul thought it was a no brainer

Superb podcast and enjoyable

Getting this watched now 👌

Paul golden did exactly the same video and he’s got an Ava pressure washer Are Ava giving you these pressure washers

That cheap stuff looked extremely weak

First!!!
