Hey Stanger,



Those jugs are Pro Wax products. The orange/red is HD Vinyl cleaner, the off yellow is Frank`s Special General cleaner, the blue is Carpet cleaner and the green is a non-corrosive cleaner/degreaser.



Sorry guys, I will comment tomorrow as I have to get back to work.



Cheers

Tim

That HD interior cleaner is really good. I use it on everything in the interior.



How do you like those other PRO products? The only one of those I`ve used is the C-49. How is that carpet/upholstery cleaner? I`ve always used HD Interior Cleaner for Carpets and Upholstery and it works fine. Just wonder if it is any better.



Have you tried their Green Nitro? Wondering how it compares to the Non-Corrosive Cleaner/Degreaser you have.

Most of them are PRO bottles from prowax.com. I get them at my local distributor.



You can get spray bottles like that at SAM`s though in bags of 5.

Hey Intel!



I would have to say that of the Pro products(cleaning) the carpet/upholstery cleaner in my favourite! It does an excellent job!! I like the HD vinyl cleaner as long as you mix the amounts correctly. If it is too strong, it can do damage.



I have not tried the nitro yet.



I chose the non-corrosive cleaner because it is safe on engines and electrical components. Therefore, it should be safe on aluminum as well. I would not buy Pro`s Franks Special Cleaner again( I have found much better!! ie. Spray Nine---awesome stuff!!!)



I heard that the Pro Red Devil is suppose to be a good cleaner but it looks corrosive(scary around aluminum wheels!)



4DR--ya, that is alot of S100 but since it was very hard to find in my area, I stocked up and glad I did!!:xyxthumbs



Cheers!

I`ve got a gallon of their Red Devil but really haven`t used it much. Only done a couple engines with it as I mainly use Green Nitro.



What has their HD interior cleaner damaged? I haven`t experienced any damage from it before.

I mixed it a little too strong once and it started to eat the white lettering off on the dash and windshield wiper stalk! OOPS!!!:eek:

So now, I mix it VERY accurately!



Have you ever tried Spray Nine?? It is one of the best cleaners I have ever used!!

Spray Nine is available in many automotive stores. Here is a link to the company. It does not say too much, but if you do a Google search of Spray Nine you will find a lot on info on it. I use the industrial cleaner; the stuff is unreal! I love Folex for carpet stains, and Spray Nine for any SEVERE cleaning situations!



I would be careful however on its use on painted vinyl; if left on too long, paint may start to soften. This is powerful stuff! So be careful!!



I even tried the stuff on a really badly dirty life jacket from many seasons of fishing. It had grease, dirt, oil, fish .....I sprayed it on, used a brush to scrub it and then used a damp cloth. It came out like brand new!! I was really surprised!! Even my fav Folex did not completely get the dirt out but this stuff did!!:up
