I've always been told that Zep has some of the most expensive soaps you can buy. What have you guys found?

Zep is junk. Call Scott at the sealer store. Order STW 75.
I used Zep for 4 years and found it to be useless & full of fillers. I used #4358. I also used several other of their products and found them to be over-priced and under-rated.
Call Scott, you won't regret it.

STW75 is good but I found it not as good as it is made up to be. I still have a fiver and a half to go thru as well.

I really like the STW-75.It cleans very well and you can let it dry without worrying about it etch the glass or damage the paint.

I do not wash cars, but all the ZEP products that I have used do very well. I almost always use powders and they are less expensive than comparable products from some of the known vendors thru the internet.
Maybe your rep charge full retail, but you do not have to.

Does STW 75 work well with a cold machine? I mostly do residential and a few restaraunts. I've had a few calls about washing trucks, but i've never washed any. Does this stuff take off tar and such? Is brushing required most of the time, or can you just douse with soap and rinse? I'd really like to take some of these jobs, and have considered just giving the guys a demo and saying "thats what you get for $XXX.XX", but i'd like to find a good cleaner before doing that. Any feedback is appreciated.

Where do you buy STW 75 anyway? What kind of soap is it? Is it worth the money? Does everyone get it from the same distributor? What are they paying?
