what's nice about it is, it doesn't need to be rinsed off.(I always do) so on a hot day when it dry's fast.it doesn't matter if it dry's..it takes a few washes to get rid of the spots..I always hand wash my truck in the summer..in the winter I do a touch less car wash to keep most of the salt off..that's when I start to get spots again.. but all summer I don't get them..I been using this soap for years and never have spots in the summer..just shiny paint and my SS and chrome really shine up..I'm always asked how do I keep it so shiny..I wax twice a year..spring and fall..I just did it 3 weeks ago...but I always use Murphy's to hand wash my truck

It did that this week...
I'll post mine up here when they come in -- I expect 'em any time...
BTW, I use Meguires NXT or Gold, whichever I lay my hands on when I need it. They both do an awesome job!
