Yeah, too pricey for me.

Chemical Guys shampoos are too expensive for me so I just bought a gallon (128 oz) of "Turtle Wax Wash and Wax" for $5.5 at Walmart.

If you end up buying one, make sure to adjust water pressure and ratio so you're not wasting too much.
I'd just set ratio at C or D (3rd and 4th highest) and adjust the water pressure.. how much soap use depend way more on water pressure than the actual ratio.
I just used the Meguiar's Gold Class Car Wash that I had been using previously and set the Foamaster to ratio "A" (1 oz./gallon) with my water hose... Seemed to foam up nicely.
