    Those who use OPC as an interior cleaner, question...

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
