Picked up the newest shampoo from the Mirror Bright line locally. I typically don't use too many car shampoo's that leave some sort of wax behind even though it is short lived. But I just had to try this one 
I purchased it at Autozone as they were offering a savings of $5 off when two Mirror Bright products I purchased.

Front of the bottle
Directions on the rear of the bottle. Many will ask what kind of measurement is a "glug". I asked Nick the same thing and this was his response.
I filled up my bucket with 3 oz's of soap and 3 gallons of water. A jet of water created some very nice suds that lasted the entire wash.
Here is the condition of the paint. The car had not been washed in 2 weeks and some rain made a mess of the dirt and pollen on the car.
I proceeded to rinsing off the dirt from the paint. I also filled up my 32 oz foam gun with 2 oz's of Mirror Bright Shampoo to test the foaming capability. From using it I will have to use another ounce to get some better foam. It did ok but it wasn't the kind of foam that I am used to. When I use my foam gun, I am only using a 1 bucket wash with a grit guard and Meguiar's microfiber wash mitt. The foam from the gun produces some added lubricity and fun.
All cleaned up
Here's a full shot of just after rinsing and drying the car. It is hard to say if anything wax was left behind on the surface considering M21 is holding up well and applied D156 a couple weeks ago. But the paint did look glossy.
I took it up a notch. I followed up with an application of Mirror Bright Detailing Spray. The detailing spray is one of my favorites. It left the surface slick.
Both products worked very well together. The shampoo cleaned well. I had no issues rinsing it off. Lubricity was good. The consistency is thinner than Gold Class. It has a nice cherry scent to it. Overall the shampoo is a really nice product. It's a good maintenance wash for those wanting a little extra gloss boost. Give it a try.
