P&S Inspiration Radiance Coating Maintenance Wash, Quart

Radiance is the wash P&S built to go with its Inspiration coatings, made by P&S. A coated car does not need a stripping soap, it needs a wash that cleans without scouring and tops up what is already there. The maker describes it as "the perfect partner to pair with the Inspiration family of coatings, coatings in general or just well maintained paint finishes," and says it "helps remove dirt and grime from the paint without scratching." The part that sets it apart comes at the end of the wash: P&S says that upon rinsing, "a coat of gloss and protection is left behind, boosting the existing coating or paint protection."

Use it as your normal wash soap in a two bucket setup or through a foam cannon, top down, rinsing the mitt often. Because it leaves protection behind, it is worth using every wash on a coated car rather than saving it for special occasions. This is the quart, which is a sensible first bottle if you are testing it against whatever soap you use now.
