Mr. JD, thank you so much for such a thorough review of our /ZERO: Decon Shampoo. We really appreciate your time and support to us as a new small business. Certainly lots of use cases, questions and comparisons that can be done!
Best wishes,
Marios and Rodger
Any plans for US Distribution ?
@@jackemerson1171 Hi, yes of course however we are a small company and just establishing our brand. We will of course want to sell our products world wide and will work with the right partners to achieve that.
Thanks - so much hype here (US) over what does/doesn't strip - even from reputable companies so there is a lot of confusion
@@jackemerson1171 There is no magic solution as Jon rightly said and we hear you on the confusion front. All we can say with confidence is that we will never sacrifice our principles, give wild marketing claims and release products we dont believe in. The detailing community is blessed with real good people who review the products, give factual evidence on their findings and give everyone enough information to make informed buying decisions. Forensic Detailing, Paul Dolden Details, Apex Detailing, Auto Detailing Podcast and Obsessed Garage. There are up and coming channels like Obsessive Car Detailer, Specky, Goose who have great content that educate and dispel some myths.
We hope some day you do us the honor of purchasing our products and give us feedback good or bad. If its bad then we go back to drawing board and improve with future versions, if its good then we all win :)
Litre ordered on the back of these reviewers opinions. Cant wait to try it!
I love this stuff. It’s great deep cleaning abilities leave the perfect base for either further decontamination or fresh protection. I don’t always want or need to clay because after claying you need to polish. Zero followed by a fallout remover will get the car decontaminated sufficiently for me in most scenarios.
I bought the 3x pack of Garage Therapy Decon, Car and Wheel shampoo off the review from Paul Dolden’s TH-cam channel and I have to say as a detailer this is not a gimmick is fantastic stuff and will become part of my routine kit. 5*
Also available In 5litre form www.garagetherapy.co.uk/product-page/zero-decon-shampoo-5-litre
In the States, folks use Purple Power Vehicle and Boat Wash for strip washes. Takes a few ounces, but it's only $8/gal.
Interesting product. I think there's a place for it in a lot of enthusiasts regime. Good to see GT interacting with the comments too 👍
Thank you we appreciate it. 👍🏻
I’ve been waiting for this video for a while now. I’m half way through my Decon bottle. You’re right it’s hard to compare it. I do think it’s better than some of the other American branded Decon shampoos, but I await your future test videos to hopefully prove it. 👍🏼 love the channel, keep up the good work John.
Yeh it's Definitely better than pretty much every shampoo tested. I used it in direct sunlight and got no smears or streaks
Just used this on my 2002 Lexus - clean as a whistle - go try it.
Reviewed Maz and Rodgers shampoos and to me there the stand out products for 2019 and I wish them every success for the future Garage therapy 😍😍 nice video Jon as always thankyou for the mention Jon 😉😉
Thank you so much Paul, we are blown away! :)
Garage Therapy good products deserve good reviews guys
cheers paul :)
I have had some for a while now, my main use is a wheel cleaner, mixed in a sprayer it works very well on coated wheels. I tried it on some relatively new Menzeran Power Lock and as most people say it will not strip new products. I used it on the weekend on a three year old car that never gets washed and it cleaned it really well.
Thanks for the feedback Patrick!
Great video with a lot of information as always, Jon!😎
I’ve been thinking about getting some of this stuff! I’ve currently got ‘AutoGlanz Brute’ which seems to sound quite similar as in the potential strength in cleaning👍🏻
Yes Iv been using Garage therapy products for a while and they are all great, we removed ceramic wax with the decon shampoo that was about 4/5 weeks old with no problem at all, they are the only shampoos I use now, car shampoo, wheel shampoo, and decon shampoo. Big fan of GT👍.
Thank you so much David that really means a lot to us. 🙏🏻
Going to be double hitting my car with this tomorrow morning! Ready for a Bilt Hamber ds wax 👍 😁
I bought this out of UK and shipped it to AUS, I really like this for decon washing my ceramic coated cars. I double up with the foam presoak (1:10 feels like enough) and contact wash, and it works so well, I’ve found I’m not having to reach for tarx either. I use it when I haven’t been able to wash the car for a couple months and it’s got baked on wet road grime - on my white daily the clear bra on skirts tends to yellow behind front wheel from road oils driving in rain, this decon wash seems to restore the clarity back as well, and I find I’m not having to use an abrasive cleaner
Oh wow thank you for going to the effort to get the product to you. We are very pleased you like it!
Great video mate. I used G3 Body prep shampoo last week and it did a great job of stripping old wax. It was also a great way at a stronger dilution to clean the wheel arches. Perfect for an application of barebones
I like to use Bilt Hamber for decontamination washes. I spray the whole car with Surfex HD 1:5 first, them I use Autofoam concentrated in my foam cannon and leave it on for as long as I can.
Aha. I've been looking for this little tip as I'm a BH fan and already have the products. Does it strip old stuff really well?
Hi Jon,
Another great review as always, thank you
Interested in using these products especially with the business being based in the UK.
When are you planning to review the stage one shampoo and wheel shampoo?
Best wishes and stay safe
Great vid Jon, never really considered a de-con wash as all I want to do is protect my paint and add more protection. As I’m only a weekend warrior I can’t say I would use it but I can see a place for it in the world of the professionals. When they get a car in they’ve never had before etc. 👌👌👌
See reply i gave to Derek :)
Cool stuff :) Thanks for the review, Jon.
Just had my first bottle delivered, along with a water deionosing resin filter, roll on Saturday
I bought a test litre for the @deltacarcare van but it was sooo good I ordered 5L more!
Hello Doug! Thank you for your support as always.
I only use garage therapy now. I've tested so many shampoos and nothing comes close to this
I use it in a snow foam gun as well it’s so much easier
Have you stopped using the quick release nozzles Jon?
You can buy G3 body prep shampoo from Halfords but havnt used it yet but looks like the same sort of thing.
Have you reviewed any Car Gods 54 products? Saw them in Halfords and I’ve never heard of them. Wondered if they’re any good. Seem to be good value.
Brilliant review as usual. Thanks for keeping us up to date. Any chance of looking at the EZ Car Care range for a review? I'm in love with them atm, prices unreal and good quality.
Looks great, if you do a strip wash comparison can you include Obsessed Garages decon soap?
Yes, that would be great. Matt has admitted that his may not be as strong as he thought. I bought some of his to try next time I strip my car.
@@jackemerson1171 who is Matt?
@@steverabbits Matt Moorman runs Obsessed Garage
@@jackemerson1171 thank you!
I’ve not used any of the other GT shampoos yet used this and I’m impressed with the lubricity so slick it’s crazy what you think of the lubricity John
its foamy and thick and slippy. Its just like using a shampoo.. but the more you use it, theres other stuff going on.. Its very strong product. And Im really interested to see how it shapes up when I compare a load of them. like I say I dont really have much to compare it with but so far results are very good.
Will this strip gyeon wet coat?
Sounds interesting. At present I use Clean Slate and it does a good job for a strip wash. I think BH Auto Foam is also good for that purpose too as it isn’t ph neutral. I’m led to believe it more alkaline on the ph scale.
I've heard mixed reviews on Clean Slate- how do you apply it ? Or how many rounds of application?
you cant gauge much about how a product strips based on it not being PH neutral (or based on its PH alone). It can give you a tiny hint perhaps.. but you could have a PH8 formulation that could attack protection more than a PH 12 one for example.
@@ForensicDetailing I see Jon. I only provided comment, based on my experience with the products mentioned.
@@jackemerson1171 good question. There are a few ways you can apply it. 1) Via snow foam lance, 2) use it via your normal 2 bucket method. I use it via the normal 2 bucket method and it has always worked well for me. The key here is that your protection needs to be old. On freshly protected paint, one application will not be enough and you would probably need to go over it multiple times. These strip wash products are aimed at older protection, in my opinion I.e. a wax that has been on for say 3/4 months etc.
great video as always, just a quick question, would it destroy my glass sealant aswell..
What is your current glass sealant favourite? I have angelwax h2go on at mo.
H2GO to me is a really durable glass sealant so I'd doubt this would take it off but you never know. I've mainly found that the glass sealant loses its hydrophobisity on the front windscreen mainly due to the wipers
Wipers wear down the sealant. This wouldn't harm it so worth a go
I've got more and more into your channel and enjoy your videos immensely. Love your style of filming. Looking to subscribe as a patron but you quote subs in dollars? I'm not sure how it works living in the UK.
Hey Andrew awesome... Patreon does all the work it just works out what 1 dollar is in pounds and takes that from the account at the end of the month. so it will like deduct 75p or something. You can cancel anytime whenever you want. thanks so much for watching and supporting FDC.
I became a patron of Jon's recently, best $1 a month I spend IMHO 👍
Thanks again John. But how do you think this compares to Meguiars Wash Plus? That’s been my go to for the initial deacon/exfoliation of customer cars before further stages and it’s great stuff IMO.
Great vids as always mate!
future video I think will answer this.. although its a different sort of mechanism to wash plus. but ill stick wash plus and maybe adams strip wash in a 3 way thing and see which one performs best or seomthing like that.
I had no doubt that would be on your list of vids to make, looking forward to it already. Nothing better for the consumer than a real world test.
@@ForensicDetailing would be a good video to see the comparison between different ones
This is out of conversation but you should make video of korrek pro series. Its popular in lapland. Thanks and sry.
Hiya John. How do you wash your wax applicators? I’ve tried the washer a few times and theirs still wax in them? Is it worth using new applicators every time and discarding the used ones. Cheers bud!!,
I do yes but they never go back to new.. Surfex and hot water, toothbrush as well... as long as there is no grit there some old product isnt bad. I dont like using like a sealant or a new product on an applicator where i can see old residue though so I always have tons of applicators.
US distribution?
Would it be ok to use this then just go over with Sonax extreme brilliant shine detailer afterwards?
Yes absolutely. It will in fact help the product bond better and last longer as the surface is better prepared / clean of contaminants.
I have a bottle of clean slate by chemical guys, does it work well in stripping old protection?
Otherwise will pick this up
Not aswell as Decon would.
Are you able to get this product on a retail level in the UK? I’d love to get a hold on some of the Bilt Hamber products you have featured on the Chanel. I have a friend that is vacationing in the UK next month and I might have him get me something.
Hi, unfortunately we are not on the retail high street, we are online only.
whats that stool your using when doing wheels please,need something like that myself..off topic...thanks
this one mate its really usefull actually it has 3 positions and its well priced..
www.slimsdetailing.co.uk/slims-fully-adjustable-multi-shaped-car-creeper-z-l-shaped.html
I do recommend you look at slims. I might be biast as they are the only place I go to as they are local to me.
@@ForensicDetailing Yes we love the Slims creeper, so much so we need to buy another.
Forensic Detailing Channel that’s great ,I’m getting on ,thanks
Hi will this product get rid of over use of quick detailer ? My car is ceramic coated but I have lots of spots where I’ve not buffed the qd off properly. Tried to use a wax off product but still have spots all over. TIA
Yo Dazza. Its hard to say without seeing it or knowing what the product is.. I initial thought you were just talking about excess from smearing, but when you said spots it can be like dried on spots of product which can sometimes be harder to remove..
I dont want to guerentee anything.. but I would say theres a good chance this product will sort that out really well yes. Give it a go.. you may well fall in love with it. If not, well I think you will like it anyway.
Forensic Detailing Channel hi yep it’s dried spots from over use of QD.
@@dazza_UTO it should work on these spots mate. let me know Im interested as well.
We are pretty confident it will work. It will likely do a good job on refreshing your ceramic also.
Does anyone know of a source in the US ?
Jack Emerson UK based but you could contact them on the website
Off-topic
Hi. I wonder if you've made a video proving if foaming is worthwhile.
Jon has done this on both counts, a snowfoam comparison video and a IK Foamer style video.
@@GarageTherapyOfficial I want to watch them.
Are GT products readily available in the U.S?
@@abdullah_fardm.9725 Unfortunately not at the moment as we are still building out our infrastructure. We hope that will change in the near future.
@@GarageTherapyOfficial It's similar to Bilt Hamber...products.
Is it available in the US? Jon, remember your shampoo shoot out a few months ago? You should take the winners from that and put them up against this using the same tests. Just a thought.
this is very different though big dog.. Its not like a maintainance shampoo.. they have a normal shampoo though.
@@ForensicDetailing It would be interesting to see how this does on the test panels you made up. That was really informative.This stuff may make a great touchless prewash.
@@kikcodog thanks bigdog you been awesome viewer mate appreciate all your input to the channel over the years and support.
@@ForensicDetailing Thanks Jon! I really enjoy your videos and get a lot out of them. We are a lot alike. You tend to ask the same questions I have and approach things like I would.
Evening John
Quick question if you want to strip anything like wax on your car couldn’t you just use washing up liquid, you would get the same results?
Phil 1969 ruins your paint work takes the shine out of the car
Leaves a film on the car that gives the impression that's its stripped wax but it doesn't
Good interesting video but I don't think I'll be rushing out to buy this one. My truck gets a full wash and wax every week which I see as building up layers of protection. So stripping off those layers goes against the grain.
Hi Derek, if you have a system that works for you we would always encourage people to stick to that and master it. One of the main uses for /ZERO: Decon Shampoo is to remove bonded contaminants that get bonded to the car over period of months which avoids the use of claying. This is a really key point as you dont want to be machine polishing your car every 6-12 months if you can avoid it and kept the clear coat swirl/scratch free. Another key point is avoiding the use of lots of different chemicals in a multistage decon (fallout remover, waterspot removers, tar removers, strong wheel cleaners, apcs etc...) - this is very much a process accelerator and saves time.
@@GarageTherapyOfficial Thanks for the informative reply. Please don't get me wrong as I can see a place for your product. As contaminants don't get to settle for more than a week on my trucks' bodywork I don't get a build up. Its a lot like when Jon does his bits on the longevity of a product, its all relevant to some but as everything gets done every Sunday between 0900 and 1700hrs its only got to last 7 days in my book.
I would really like to see a review of your wheel cleaner, the disks and pads were replaced a couple of months ago and are blacking up the wheels and tyres big time. Even the tarmac where I wash them is beginning to stain with the amount of iron being washed off, I've resorted to hand scrubbing each wheel every week.
@@derekcole6750 Hi Derek, check out Paul Doldens TH-cam channel as he recently did a very dirty Land Rover and use our Wheel Shampoo. Also check out Obsessive Car Detailer TH-cam channel as he has done a dedicated review of our wheel shampoo.
As this product doesn’t claim to remove tar or iron what’s the difference between this and me adding Surfex HD to my Auto Wash?
Totally different level of cleaning power using this method. One of the main advantages is the lubrication system so you do not inflict damage whilst clearing the contaminants. It terms of tar removal, as it is extremely strong product you will be surprised how effective it can be but yes we do not claim this to be a tar remover or iron remover, totally different chemistry.
Garage Therapy Thanks for the reply. 👍🏻
@@LSD04 our pleasure.
Garage Therapy ordered a litre this morning
@@LSD04 Thank you for your support! We hope you enjoy the product as much as we do. 😊
Hey John, have you stopped using the new gun you had for a few videos? Havn't seen it on your channel for a while. or maybe this was was filmed before you had installed the new trigger gun
this was filmed on my old pressure washer before I had the gun :)
@@ForensicDetailing Is it still working properly after a few weeks/month? No leaking or binding for the swivel?
@@TerrificFlow its working perfect so far. You had problems with yours?
@@ForensicDetailing Still debating whether getting this one or a more premium option from MTM (obsessed garage style) but it's always on back order
Hi john would fairy liquid not do the same?
Hi! Absolutely not, different types of surfactants and strength/concentration of product is no where near the same. We recommend buying PVD Magazine, they have done some excellent reviews and articles on different types of surfactants.
no mate. fairy can strip a bit (strips not the right word though), it has some alcohol solvent in it.. but its not that powerfull.
@@ForensicDetailing ok good to know 👍
@@excaliber32 lol don't use fairy liquid on cars it's got salt in it also bad news
Dont tacsystems have something like this?
not that I know of unless its new dean.
Pricey for a new company/product.
wash plus is 15 quid. Adams strip wash is 15 quid. Clean slate is 10 quid. Decon Wash is 10 quid. What would be really cool. Is to get a "cheap" one thats a similar style product and get that in a comparison as well. If you know a cheap-ish or cheap-er ones lemme know ill try and get it in.
Not if it works !!
@@ForensicDetailing Farecla G3 Body Prep Shampoo 500ml is one of the cheaper options i can see, although i haven't tried it so can't comment on performance.
@@Ashley-dy7bx perfect yer its 7 quid will get that on in there. gives us a bit of a range.
just use a few drops of dish soap for goodness sake!
Crazy that has salt in it and will sit in the panel gaps and cause issues later on. Bad idea
