    Meguiar APC vs APC +

    Hi folk

    What is the main pro and con of each product. Seems APC+ is better and can be used for more area including engine.

    Seem like my country can only find APC.

    Thanks

    Re: Meguiar APC vs APC +

    I've always felt that APC+ was intended more for interior use and APC for exterior use.

    FWIW, I only use Meg APC and use it for both interior and exterior (at different ratios)

    For one, APC+ is low foaming and a little stronger. While APC foams quite a bit. This is for people working by hand on interior carpets I believe.

    Re: Meguiar APC vs APC +

    Either will work.

    D103 All Purpose Cleaner Plus
    • Designed to be low foaming for use in carpet and upholstery extraction machines.
    • Diluted at the same levels it's stronger than APC.
    • Lower cost per ounce compared to APC.



    D101 All Purpose Cleaner

    • More foaming which helps visually when cleaning carpets by hand and brush. It's important to note that in the detailing industry this is an important factor so a person can tell where they're working on a segment of carpet or upholstery.
    • Fabric softeners and brighteners.
    • Not as strong as APC+
    • Higher cost per ounce compared to APC+

    That was taken from Mike Stoops over at MOL.

    to me, there is no reason to even buy APC. Yes it foams more which helps with visibility. but I use APC+ by hand and I have never had any problem seeing what I am doing.

    Agreed. Cannot see much of a reason to have both but I am sure there is a small percentage of folks that can justify using both. In the same detail? probably not....

    Seems like APC and APC+ will depends on which country it is released.
