How about smaller containers of it?

No plans at the moment for sizes less than a gallon, sorry.

Boy that's doubtful, Meg's doesn't do any less-than-gallon sizes of the Detailer line, and even ADS doesn't sample out quarts of the Detailer line washes.

I read someone describe D114 as nothing more than a watered down regular shampoo?

It wasn't stated as fact, more of a "hmmm, wonder if"

And no, it wasn't I who wondered this

I don't think I stated it as a fact, I just said that's what someone described it as.

Comparing the MSDS for D111 and D114 should clear that up pretty quickly; the two have pretty much nothing in common ingredient-wise from what I can tell.

I was offered a sample of the D114 so I'll be interested to do some comparison testing and see if there's any behavioral validity to the shampoo claim.

Charlie is on the right track here - D114 is far from just a "watered down regular shampoo". No clue who might have said/pondered/theorized that or why, but it's way off the mark.

Not sure how someone could call this a watered down shampoo, wouldn't that leave residue behind? D114 leaves nothing on the surface.

The samples I offered will go out tomorrow morning, guaranteed.

Stand by for smaller size bottles.

One question is does D114 have the encapsulation dirt type cleaning in ONR that is supposedly critical to safe cleaning.
