Chemical Guys Car Wash Kit 14-Pc Arsenal Builder - with Foam Blaster Wash Bucket Towels Applicators and 16

There are so many car detailing products out there that is really easy to get confused and overwhelmed. To make it worse, there are tons of Internet pundits, all talking about how some brand or product is the best and you would be crazy to consider anything else. The truth is, there are many products out there can produce great results. What I like about the Chemical Guys system is that they have a comprehensive package of products that all work together along with a great set of instructional videos to help you get started. It had been a while since I had done any detailing on my cars, so the Arsenal Builder kit was a great way for me to get back in the game with an assortment of the most commonly used products all bundled together at a very good price. In my opinion, the results I was able to get with this system speak for themselves. The foam canon is the heart of the kit. It hooks up to an ordinary garden hose and quickly applies a generous layer of wash foam onto your car. You need to set your expectations properly, this is not going to produce the same kind of results a pressure washer foam canon would, but the results are more than adequate for an amateur like me. Some people have commented that the quick disconnect can leak, but I have not had that problem. The included car wash works great and smells fantastic to boot. In fact, all the cleaning chemicals included do the job they are designed to do well. I especially liked the Butter Wet Wax, which goes on quick and easy by hand and produces a great shine. Full disclosure, in addition to the products contained in this kit, I used the Chemical Guys Blacklight Glaze and V07 Quick Detailer. Another plus is the Chemical Guys customer service. The wash bucket dirt trap included in my kit arrived damaged, but the Chemical Guys took care of me shipping out a replacement right away. There may be better products out there, or at least products that may work better for certain applications. I found that the Chemical Guys system works well for me. I am able to get great results with a moderate amount of effort and at a fairly reasonable investment level. If you are looking to start detailing your car and are getting confused by all the options out there, I highly recommend jumping in with the Chemical Guys Arsenal Builder. p.s.; I have no connection to Chemical Guys at all, I am just a happy customer.

It was a nice kit for my son who just bought his first truck and washes it often. He loves that brand so I knew I couldn’t go wrong. The line of cleaners work great on my 2019 so I wanted him to have his own Read more

Love the products included in this kit. This is an ideal starter kit to build from. I would recommend getting a second bucket (one for rinse and one for wash). I'm very happy with this purchase. Read more

I recently purchased the Chemical Guys HOL126 14-Piece Arsenal Builder Car Wash Kit, and overall, I'm quite pleased with it. Pros: - Great Starter Kit: This kit has everything you need to get started with car detailing. The variety of products included means you can tackle different parts of your car with ease. - Foam Gun: The foam gun is a standout feature, though it felt a tad gimmicky at first. However, I got it to work fine by only putting soap in it for thick suds, which made the washing process more effective. - Quality Products: The cleaning chemicals are top-notch and leave my car looking amazing. The Butter Wet Wax, in particular, gives a fantastic shine. Cons: - Grit Guard Issue: The grit guard did not stay in place at the bottom of the bucket and kept coming up. This could be user error, but it was a bit frustrating. - Price: While the kit is comprehensive, it is on the pricier side. However, considering the quality of the products, it's a worthwhile investment. Overall: I would give the Chemical Guys HOL126 14-Piece Arsenal Builder Car Wash Kit a solid 4 stars. It's a fantastic starter kit for anyone looking to get into car detailing. Despite the minor issue with the grit guard, the overall performance and quality of the products make it a great buy. My car looks amazing, and it's not by luck—this kit really delivers! Read more

We took a 6 month road trip in our travel trailer this summer and left our cars at home. Safe to say they had gotten pretty dirty over the summer. I bought this kit to wash our 3 cars and it worked so well, that I decided to use it to deep clean our trailer as well. Great purchase! Read more

Package arrive same day packed in a heavy duty box. No dents. All products were packaged well. no leaks. The bucket did not come with a lid : ( and had a small crack on the side but does not seem to leak yet. Great smelling wash and lots of foam with the hose foam gun (Others experienced leaks but I did not).The wash mitt was large soft and kept my hand clean as it has a liner. The diablo wheel cleaner is quick at removing grime and gentle on the wheels. The wheel brush soft as not to scratch the wheels but effective at cleaning the tires. The silk shine is great and not oily, the applicator sponge is size well for tire and detail trim application. The butter wax was super easy to apply and buff for a super shinny finish. I am not totally pleased with the glass cleaner because I saw a residue or film left over even though I used a clean never used microfiber cloth for the glass and mirrors. Overall pleased with the pricy kit but wish it had included an interior cleaner and a waffle drying towel. Read more
