So I got this in the mail today and had some time to kill, and wanted to do a quick review of this product :inspector:

Got the product, and a dilution measurement bottle :D

Will be testing on on exterior, so I diluted 10 parts water to 1 part product as instructed (2.5oz of product to 25.5oz of water to be exact)

And where ready to go! (luke-warm filtered tap water)

Here is the family work truck, everyone uses it so it gets its abuse. The wheel/tire is not filthy, but still dirty.

Using as directed, i thoroughly rinsed the area with water before use.

Using a foaming trigger, (which kept falling off the bottle >_<) It went on easy and the cling to the tire & wheel well was great. Used Mothers tire & wheel brushes for agitation.

After rinsing with the hose here, quite a bit of browing & built up dirt/grime/brake dust came off with ease. Here is the finished look.

Product Conclusion: For an APC, it worked well above my expectations. I've tried quite a few different all-purpose-cleaners and this is by far one of the best. I have yet to try it on interior, but i'm sure it'll preform well; adding to this thread on interior use later on. I'll be using this for quite awhile now, for 8.99 and a 10/20 to 1 dilution ratio its very cost effective. And works!

:thanks Hope you enjoyed the review!
 
I'm guessing based on the "citrus" this a a d-limonene based cleaner like P21S TAW. So, it should be safe on paint. Looks like a winner, especially for the price. It probably works pretty well on fabrics and carpets.
 
Excellent review!

Thank you :D

For that price, how can anyone go wrong. Great review. What did you use after that too keep it looking good.

I agree! thanks :D I used Megs D170 (hyper dressing)

Yeah most likely, and I agree. Have yet to try it on carpets & fabrics but thats my next test is interior. Ill update this thread once I have a verdict.

wow! yup, gonna need to pick up some of this stuff. Great review!

for 8.99 that's what I said haha, Thanks!
 
UPDATE: Interior usage, diluted 20/1 and used on a very... very filthy interior on customers car (running board & dash) Ill say i'm somewhat impressed with this stuff. Here's the pics!

I did try it out on leather, from my experience it does better on plastic/trim panels. Seems to dry the leather out.
 
Colin,

Nice job on the review and photos. I like the dilution photos. It really shows how little is needed for tougher jobs which points to its economy..:bigups
