Its a good APC but very strong and not safe on all surfaces. My suggestion is that you cut in with water. For cleaning inside the car, I would be at 10 to 1 water to APC.

Do not spray it on polished aluminum of any sorts will cloud the finish straight away

Yes be careful with this stuff. Its strong. I have seen people cause nice damage to wheels with it. IMHO i would stick with a safer APC. If you are looking for good value, go with the Megs APC +

i use PP on tires and unpainted wheel wells only, on interiors diluted even 10:1 can remove the paint thats on the wiper/turn signal tree`s happens most with GM and fords, so for interiors i use apc+

I made the mistake of using it on carpets before, there`s purple dye in it that will not come out

I used it before on tires at 4:1. I also used it to clean the scum etc off my outdrive when cleaning my boat at the end of the year.

Just be careful when using it, it`s some strong stuff and may cause more harm then good.

My thoughts exactly. Meg`s APC+ or regular APC are both value priced and perform extremely well.

I agree with everyone else. I do have and use it, but only on certain items. For the interior, stick with APC+. PP is easily available OTC, which does make it nice in a pinch!

I have found a local source for the LA`s Totally Awesome that I am going to try as well.

Assuming that you are looking for an OTC APC, its why you may have asked about PP.

I would take a visit to your local janitorial supply house. The ones in my area, have many different APC to chose from. Chemical, detergent and citrus based in gallons, at very reasonable prices. At least that`s what I have found
