Has it ever damaged anything(leather, plastic, etc..)? This is the only APC I would even consider using on interiors.

Never had a problem with it or any Optimum products. I do follow dilution recommendations.

Short answer, no. For interior cleaning, try Ultima Interior Shampoo. Cost a little more, but I guaranty you that you will love it Mark. It's more like a liquid foam.:xyxthumbs:

If I remember correctly (from almost a year ago), he used it and was less than impressed.

No damage here with OPC here, Mark.

I had a strange issue with OPC on a BMW interior a while ago. It was diluted 1:3 or 1:10, can't exactly remember. Since then, never used it on interiors. One of the leather door panels was completely dis-colored by OPC; the rest were fine. :dunno:

I just remembered Blackfire APC. I used a sample a while back and was very impressed!

Thanks Ron.

I'm trying to be as cost effective as possible these days. :dblthumb2:

To be honest, I get extremely similar results with OPC and BF APC. They smell and look different, but I wonder how different they are.

LOL! However, I've found another "interior cleaner" that I like better than Ultima, and that would be DP Total Interior. Still too expensive, though.

I use it 3 or 4:1 on interiors no problem. Plan to drop it down further though in the future. It cleans very well.

Why are you scared. All Clean+ is safe on those things if diluted correctly. I use it all the time.
