Best shampoo to use with Foam Gun
I recently started using a Gilmour Foamaster II gun for washing my car. I've tried it with chemical guys Mr. Pink and Meguiar's gold class. With Mr. Pink it leaves some type of residue on my Obsidian black IS 350 that makes finger prints and smudges very visible, especially in sunlight. The Gold class did a little better, but I hope that there are better products out there that work well with the foam gun.
I'm quite turned off with chemical guys at the moment. Most of the products I've used from them (sealant, shampoo, wax, microfiber cleaner etc.) seem to be overpriced, overrated, and overhyped.
Does anyone have other brands they would recommend for an inexpensive but effective shampoo that works well with the gilmour foam gun?

I am relieved to hear that a pro like you shares my opinion of CG.
Thanks for your recommendations. However, from reading the product details it doesn't look like the recommended application is using a foam gun. Or is that not correct?

The foam gun is really to break some dirt down, and rinse away before I wash.
I was tempted to try Meg's Wash/Wax, but its pretty pricey for the amount you're getting. Gold Class, imo, is relativity cheap and last awhile.
*Also, CG stuff is kinda overprice, imo, and I fall into the "general market" category. Can't go wrong with Meg's products, everything I use for my car is from them.
