Default Which H-D cleaner to use?

To date, I've used he S100 Detail and Wax as a touchup between full wash jobs. For full wash jobs, I use either the Mr. Clean AutoWash system (which does a great job) but it gets water everywhere! So I also use the S100 Total Cycle Care spary-on. Does anyone have any experience with the H-D cleaners, either good or bad, or does anyone have any other suggestions? I'm not against a good auto wash soap and a wash mitt.
