    Megs Super Degreaser, Hyper Dressing, Wheel and Tire Cleaner dilution ratio suggestions?

    Hey guys,

    So I just got Meguiar's Super Degreaser, Hyper Dressing, and Wheel and Tire Cleaner.

    What are your suggestions for dilution ratios?

    Here is what I am thinking:

    Meguiar's Super Degreaser: 4:1 - I already have Meguiar's APC at both 10:1 and 4:1 so to me it only makes sense to go 4:1 on the Degreaser

    Meguiar's Hyper Dressing: 4:1 - this will mostly be used as a spray for undercarriage, wheel wells, engine bay

    Meguiar's Wheel and Tire Cleaner: It says it can be diluted up to 2:1, but my guess is that it is best to just use as is?

    Thanks guys!

    Super Degreaser: Yes 4:1 I use D143 for tires, but Super Degreaser for wheel wells.
    Hyper Dressing: 3:1 instead of 4:1
    D143: Don't use it as is/straight. Dilute it @2:1. IME it works just as good @2:1 as it does 1:1.

    On the Hyper Dressing - any reason as to why 3:1?

    4:1 = Natural Finish. To me that translates to "you might not be able to tell you even applied anything the next day"
    3:1 = Satin Finish. Helps me sleep better at night. Lol.
    Personally, I dilute it @1:1 for everything. Always have, always will. I like it like that

    I use Super Degreaser at a few different ratios, 2:1, 4:1 and 10:1. Love that stuff!

    Thanks guys I will have to decide between 3:1 and 4:1 for the hyper dressing...it will only be used for wheel wells/undercarriage/ engine...seems like most go with 4:1 but I suppose I can always try both.

    4:1 on the HD works for me on dressing the wheel wells.

    I use the non acid at 2:1, tried it 1:1 but didn't notice any better results.

    Like Goin Rogue, i tried Super Degreaser at 3:1 and didn't notice much difference when deciding on 4:1. Plus i figured i could stretch the cost a bit. I use 2:1 on super tough areas (undercarriage, some engines etc.).
