The answer would depend on what`s available OTC in your location. Around here, I`d say it would probably be Simply Green.

I have to say either Simple Green or Purple Power.

I would be very very careful using simple green. There have been many reports of it dulling the finish on paint and wheels.

What about Super Clean? I find it to be more effective than the Meg`s APC, which I also have.

I`ve used Zep All Purpose Cleaner in the past. It is purple and available at most Home Depots. I feel it is a little harsh though. Meguiars APC is very good if you can find it locally.

The only way simply green will dull paint is if you let it dry on the painted surface. Same can be said of most APCs. It isn`t the fault of the product that some can`t figure out how to use it properly. :nixweiss
If you are really wooried about it, just dilute it at 1:1 or up to 1:4.

so most of these OTC APCs don`t need to be diluted as much as Meg`s APC does?

someidiot- I`d take all the "recommended dilution ratios" with a grain of salt. I never seem to know what dilution will do what I want until I mess around with the product for a while.

X2 - Even though its not OTC, I refuse to skimp on APCs. Not worth the trouble.

I agree, with all the sales and free shipping offers available on line, it`s just as easy to get a quality APC shipped as it is to go looking for it. I`m lucky enough to have a true detailing supply store in town, but if I didn`t, I would order on-line.
