Description: Mystique Auto Wash is a concentrated wash solution that lubricates the surface as it safely lifts dirt and sheets it away. Unique polymers brighten the paint while leaving it feeling slick and conditioned. With regular use, you will notice your wax lasts longer and looks better. As you rinse Mystique from your vehicle, keep an eye on the glass and you will see tight beads as the water flows across the surface.

Pros: Amazing lubricity, super concentrated, smells nice, polymer ingredients really make the paint pop
Cons: Not as sudsy as other cleaners, but better lubricating

Awesome product from Prima. The polymers really make the car shine. The high concentration makes a bottle last for months (washing your car every 6 days or so).

Pros: Great "slip", concentrated compared to others, pleasant scent, really makes the paint shine!
Cons: $$$ compared to OTC stuff, must order online/by phone (unless you live near a vendor)

I wash my MINI weekly with this wash. I'm on my third gallon and have no intention of and no reason for switching. I use the entire Prima line and so it just seems logical to use the coordinating wash.

The product is a thick liquid that starts out fresh as a greenish color, and then over time changes to a purple shade. According to DP, this is just something in the chemical composition and doesn't reflect anything with the state of the product. You are supposed to use 1 ounce of wash per 2 gallons of water. I'm not too scientific about it; I use 2 healthy squirts of wash in my 4.5 - 5 gallons and call it fair. Most cheaper washes require 1 ounce per gallon, so you can see how concentrated this product really is.

Using a proper wool mitt, this wash just glides over the paint. The lubricity is fantastic; unlike any other wash I've tried. The mitt slips across the paint effortlessly and removes dirt, bugs, and tire dressing "fling" very easily. Once, after a 1000+ mile round-trip to Vegas and back, the entire front end was covered in dried-on bugs. Bugs on top of bugs on top of bugs. Bleh! I used a microfiber-covered sponge to spread some Mystique across the bug-covered bumper before I washed, and let it sit while I washed the rest of the car...and they all came right up!

The wash rinses away easily. Another thing that I like is that it doesn't create an excess of foam. I really hate foam everywhere when I wash...creeping up my arm, sticking to everything...argh! This wash creates little foam, and I add it to my water after the bucket is filled, so that helps too. If you require a super-sudsy wash, this may not be for you.

But the best part about this wash is easily the shine. The wash contains polymers that leave the car shining as though you just put on a coat of wax. Granted, it won't LAST like wax, but it gives a nice shine boost to whatever wax you are using.

For some, the price may seem high...but remember that you use at MOST half as much as other soaps, so it's not as bad as it seems. And your MINI deserves high quality stuff, right?

Overall, this wash is the easiest way to get your car clean and boost the shine all in one step. Highly recommended.

You can get this item at Detailer's Paradise (the owners are also the creators of the Prima brand; DP is a NAM vendor and the customer service is great!) for $9.95 for a 16-ounce bottle, or $44.95 for a gallon. If you wash regularly, just go for the gallon and get it over with.
