    Question APC Suggestion

    I'm looking for a good APC. I've been using Simple Green for a long time but even at full strength sometimes it's not effective.

    With so many here using different products I would like some opinions on what would be good to try. If you've used more than one item what were they and which did you prefer and why?

    I like Megs APC for interiors. I love Zeps Citrus Degreaser for wheels, engine bays, and wheel wells. You can get that product at Home Depot for around $10 per gallon.

    Re: APC Suggestion

    Meguiar's APC or Optimum Power Clean are the ones I use. Both are good and reasonably priced and occasionally go on sale!

    A personal observation.

    Through the years I've tried Simple Green in regular strength and Industrial Strength and to be honest it isn't worth the time I spent with it.

    Re: APC Suggestion

    Optimum power clean. Mix up a bottle at 3-1 and use it on anything you want.

    EDIT: I don't want to hijack but this question may be in line with what the OP needs to know. I have a gallon of OPC and a gallon of APC+. I LOVE the OPC but haven't really used APC+. What would be a good use of that? I don't want it to harm the paint so maybe wheel wells and wheels? Is it safe to use over opticoat 2.0?

    i would go with Megs APC+ over Optimum Power Clean only cause of the price. both are very good and can be used on everything but Megs is cheaper to buy

    I prefer OPC too. IMO any APC is safe on wheels & wells.

    I'm glad I asked. I see a lot talk about Megs APC and I always wondered if it was their APC or APC+.
