With how concentrated GlossWorkz is you get a lot of product for the price. Only 1 ounce per 4-5 gallons of water. So if you don't have the time to wash and wax your vehicle, do a wash with Chemical Guys GlossWorkz and see the difference yourself.

One of the best soaps I have used. Wish it came in a gallon size on Detailed Image.
Absolutely love this stuff. Not a pro at all, so take with a grain of salt. But this particular CG product is my fave. Excellent lube, exquisite shine. My personal go-to now for washing, and re-ordered some from DI. In the here and now, I won't use anything else on my rides and I don't say that lightly.
I have used this shampoo on my ebony black Optima three times now and really like the results. It smells nice, produces a thick sudsy lather, cleans well and leaves the black paint looking glossy.
Love this shampoo and it really does add a nice gloss to my black car. I wish DI still sold by the gallon as that is the size I buy. I hate having to buy it elsewhere. Please return the gallon size for sale. Thanks.
Nothing special - I get better results using my Meguiars carnuba wash that I have been using for years
This is just an OK shampoo for me. I initially bought it for my maintenance wash. I used it on my white car so I may not see the results black car owners see. I honestly don't think it lubricates enough. Then if you don't dilute the product enough it starts to strip wax. I use Mr. Pink for my daily maintenance wash from now on.
I used this with my Gilmour foam gun and it worked fantastically. You can see (and smell) the results.
I have a 1929 Ford Roadster street rod show car and have always had good luck with products from Detailed Image. As usual the Glossworkz was a very good product and if used as instucted it did a fine job on my car. It did not have any bad effects on my polish or sealer and that is what we look for when we are showing the car. I would purchase this product again when it runs out, and when you are showing your car on a regular basis you are always looking for good products to show it off.
This is a great product for the person looking to clean your car but still leave the wax on the car. If you have a black car and after it rains you know how it looks. This product I generally use after about 1-2 weeks of waxing the car to keep it sparkly and still protected from the wax.
After a wash using Gloosworkz I was blow away at how much of the little glittery sparkles in my black paint, and its so concentrated I can see it lasting at least 20 washes!
Great "paintwork cleanser" since technically it's not a soap, regardless it's great and it makes the paint feel really slick.
Glossworkz is a great shampoo. It leaves the car so shiny and clean looking, even with older cars. Many times, after using this wash, customers ask if we've waxed the vehicle. I know that after I'm done using this the vehicle is ready for the next step.
While the product is amazing for leaving gloss after a wash. I just don't feel safety when washing. The slickness is near nothing, and adding more doesn't help the situation. While its a nice sudsing wash, and truly great for gloss, its not nearly right for me as the wash just doesn't feel slippery.
Using Glossworkz was my first experience with a "premium" car soap, and I have to say you definitely get what you pay for. I let the car get "dirty" before using this product and the shine was just as good as the day I waxed it 2 weeks prior. Very satisfied. Thanks for carrying such a great product.
The most annoying part of washing a car after detailing is the possibility of a) inducing scratches during washing/drying b) removing the protection, be it sealant or wax, after a thorough detail. Glossworkz is slick enough to make washing a breeze, decreasing the chances of micro scratches while being gentle enough to preserve paint protection. Additionally, it leaves a VERY nice reflective gloss on the entire vehicle. I would say it is about 7/10th of the gloss you would get if you applied ONR as a quick detailer after washing using another product. It doesn't get heavy duty road tar out, but then again there are other products for that. Highly recommended.
Glossworkz is a great quality wash it leaves behind a great glossy look after. Also my two coats of Blackfire Wet Diamond look just as good as they were applied two months ago. I use this is on a 04 Black mustang GT and a 10 Black ML350 leaves them looking great. I also follow up my drying process with Chemical Guys Pro-Detailer or Synthetic Quick Detailer which adds a bit more shine an protection. Im am glad I purchased the gallon. One more thing is that 1oz in a foam gun set to the max setting will provide good suds and plenty of lubricity.
This product does indeed seem to add some gloss to an already protected finish. I have used it for the 3 most recent maintenance washes on a 2005 Mercury Sable. The Mercury's finish was sealed over a year ago using Menzerna FMJ and has had several applications of Collinite Insulator Wax on top of the FMJ. I am also able to confirm that GlossWorkz, when used at the suggested strength, does not remove wax. If anything, water beads better after washing with this. It does a better job than many other wash soaps of cutting brake dust on wheels which are not quite bad enough to call for using a spray- on cleaner. Quality product!
This is a great maintenance soap . Great lubicity and awesome gloss.Definitly a must have to your aresenal.
I like alternating with the Maxi Suds II and this soap. It might be in my head, but my silver paint has been looking exceptionally deep lately.
So far this is the best car shampoo i have ever used by far .It has amazing lubrication . Leaves the car Smelling like watermelon .A little goes a long way .As for the best part iv never got a car looking cleaner and leaves a awesome noticable gloss . You wont regret purchasing it .
Great maintenance soap. It definitively adds some serious gloss. It doesn't create a lot of studs, but it's has great lubrication. Highly recommended!!

Glossworkz is a great maintenance soap! You can truly see it do something to the paint after using it, it really does add some shine and depth to any finish and also has great lubrication and cleaning ability. One of my top three soaps and glad DI is carrying it now!
