    Re: OPC replacement

    I've used APC and APC+ in my wash bucket, sprayed directly on the paint and in a foam cannon and have never had a problem. Pretreating bugs with APC+ works great as well. Just don't let it dry.

    for pre-treating what ratio were you using? tarminator also works great on bugs but is alot more $$ compared to a gallon of apc+ thanks!!!

    Re: OPC replacement

    I definitely need to try OPC next! Reviews put it up there as the best.

    P21S Total Auto Wash has worked very well for me.

    Re: OPC replacement

    I ordered a gallon of it last week since I am running out of Megs APC. Can't wait to try it out based on the positive feedback on this forum.

    Re: OPC replacement

    I'm sure this won't be popular due to the price, but P21S Total Auto Wash is a GREAT product. I think in recent months it has been put on the back burner since OPC is just such an amazing product. I still see some people using it in their Show and Shines though. This really is a good product that is paint safe, and works great at cleaning engine bays, wheel wells, and tires as well. On the down side I don't think you can dilute it, and I don't think they recommend using it on interiors...

    I agree, I still do use TAW (well, actually I use the slightly cheaper S100 Total Cycle Cleaner but it's basically the same product) and I love it. Seems to lubricate better than other cleaners when using it on metal or glass with steel wool.
