It's great around the house too. I get mine from Dollar Tree

I use the 3D yellow tire & wheel cleaner. Diluted 1:4 it is economical. And does a good job. I use it on my tires and wheel wells.

I've never tried it but I wonder if this or any other product that says rejuvenater has an extra ingredient that does something or is it "word shell game"

I think it just means that you've "rejuvenated" a dirty tire to an original clean tire.
Mckees37 pointed out something specifically regarding APCs in their description that I sort of forgot about:
STOP CLEANING YOUR TIRES WITH CAUSTIC ALL PURPOSE CLEANERS! These high-octane, inexpensive cleaners actually do more harm than good. The issue with most all purpose cleaners is that they're formulated to meet a certain price point, and in order to achieve that inexpensive price point, caustic ingredients are often found in these products. These caustic detergents are harmful to you AND your tires!
You see, tires contain antiozonants, rubber conditioners, and UV absorbers that help keep the tire flexible. The wrong cleaner will actually cause the antiozonants, rubber conditioners, and UV absorbers to leach out of the tire, resulting in browning, discoloration and cracking of the tire. McKee's 37 Tire & Rubber Rejuvenator is non-caustic, non-acidic, and it will not harm your tires!

But what about more expensive APC's like AlienKleen?

I wonder what the manufacturers of the APCs would say in response to this probably true assessment

Re: Tire/rubber cleaners?
Tufshine tire cleaner works so well I haven't found a reason to stop using it. Not sure if more performance wouldever be needed out of a tire cleaner.
Before Tufshine I used D143 which is good, but it isn't Tufshine.
