This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Chemical Guys Car Wash is a concentrated car wash solution designed for everyday cleaning with professional-level results. Its concentrated formula lets you tailor cleaning strength to the job—from quick, routine washes to tackling tougher grime—while delivering a rich, slippery lather that cushions paint and makes rinsing efficient.

What sets this car wash apart is the control it gives you. A little goes a long way, so you can stretch each bottle further while maintaining consistent cleaning power. The generous foam lubricates the surface, helping lift dirt away instead of grinding it into the finish. It pairs seamlessly with standard detailing setups—microfiber wash mitts, soft brushes, foam cannons, and typical two-bucket washing workflows—making it a flexible choice for both at-home enthusiasts and professional shops.

Key benefits

  • Concentrated formula enables economical use and easy dilution—adjust strength for light dust or heavier grime without changing products.
  • Lubricating foam provides smooth, low-friction washing to reduce the risk of swirl marks.
  • Versatile application suitable for hand washing, foam cannon spraying, and varying wash setups in small spaces or full-detail environments.
  • Reliable, consistent results helps prepare the surface for waxing or sealing as part of your regular detailing routine.

Ideal for

Daily drivers, weekend detailers, hobbyists, and professional detailers who want a dependable, dilutable car wash soap that delivers solid cleaning performance without complicating their workflow.

How to use

  1. Rinse the vehicle to remove loose dirt and debris.
  2. Dilute the concentrate in a bucket of clean water according to your cleaning needs.
  3. Wash with a clean microfiber wash mitt, starting from the top and working downward.
  4. Rinse thoroughly, ensuring all soap is removed.
  5. Dry with a clean microfiber towel or chamois to minimize water spots.

Pro tips for best results

  • Wash in shade and out of direct sunlight to prevent rapid drying and streaks.
  • Use the two-bucket method to minimize dirt transfer to the wash mitt.
  • Pair with quality microfiber towels and a dedicated wash mitt for safer, more effective cleaning.
