Re: DFB's Garage
Hell...we're trying to get the law changed here in Illinois to not need a front plate, Covid slowed it down but I hope we get back to it️

Yeah I just re up’d on BB as I didn’t like that TW can’t recommend on all wheels. Will use TS or 303 on tires.

Re: DFB's Garage
The only times where I have been left wanting with Brake Buster is when I have diluted it. In which case, I would agree with the notion that Brake Buster is best suited for maintenance rather than hardcore cleaning. When used as P&S intended, at full strength, it's fine for deep cleaning tires and decently capable when cleaning truly dirty wheels.
If you go to the trouble of diluting Brake Buster and therefore reducing it to a "maintenance" product, then you may as well just use soap. And that's what I do for my own cars because soap nicer to use than a harsh chemical.
I find it interesting that when reading P&S product listing for Brake Buster, other than stating that it has "intense foam action", there is no mention of dilutions. I also seem to remember Bob Phillips saying that while it can be diluted, Brake Buster was not intended to be diluted.

I agree with all of this ofcoarse but the one thing BB has going for it over soap is keeping the rotors from getting AS rusty and I'd be willing to bet is better for the other metal bits in there.
That said, I do think they should make a revision in the directions about diluting it because it has to be when used in a foamer, any foamer and would add a layer of honestly to a noon user of the product and thus probably sell more product in the future
