I would go with Meguiars APC & Meguiars Super Degreaser. If you are looking for just one, go with the APC, you can dilute 10:1, and I've even heard of 12:1. Very economical and effective! I haven't found much it doesn't take care of at the right dilution ratio. It will even take care of 95% of what the degreaser handles, just takes a few repeat applications.

Meguiar’s All Purpose Cleaner Concentrate, 1 Gallon, works on carpet, fabric, vinyl, and leather for all-over interior cleaning. (http://www.autogeek.net/mg10101.html)

Meguiars Super Degreaser Concentrate, meguiars D10801 (http://www.autogeek.net/mg10801.html)

I haven't used d101 yet to compare but CG allclean + is pretty decent. Also available in a smaller size than d101.

Chemical Guys All Clean+ Citrus Based APC (http://www.autogeekmobile.net/chemical-guys-all-clean-all-purpose-cleaner.html)

Megs APC+ or Optimum PowerClean here. I got PowerClean in a local trade. When comes time for refills - the cheapest per diluted ounce will be my purchase.

LATA has been getting a lot good
reviews lately. Here's a few of 'em:



Go to the dollar store and buy
some totally awesome. Works
great for me and very cheap


If you don't want to use detailing
products, LA Awesome from the
dollar store works too
& can be diluted.


IME, LA's Totally Awesome is about
the best APC money can buy.

One of the best (maybe the best)
pad cleaners out there.

Also it is superior to other APCs
for wheel wells and tires.

I use a lot of it.

If it wasn't for a killer bogo deal on some blackfire last year I would be using Megs. For the price I don't think it can be beat.

Simple....Optimum Power Clean aka Alien Kleen! I've been using it since I joined AG over 5 years ago, amazing product and should always be diluted atleast 3:1.

Is D101 safe on leather?

That's one of the reasons I'm leaning towards OPC. The other reason is that another user on here claimed that OPC was much better at removing old tire dressing.

Other than those 2 things, OPC and D101 seem nearly equal.
