Degreaser

Im using up my gallon of simple green and looking to get away from using this stuff. Anything else you guys reccomend in placement of this? Megs Super Degreaser or something of that nature or just stick to using my Megs APC (not the +).

I`ve used this with good results.

Autoglym Engine Cleaner

It works very nicely for under-the-hood grime.

Is it ok for wheel wells and other things? I used my simple green for under the hood, wheel wells and that kinda thing.

anyone have experience with the chemical guys degreasers, mainly the red hot and the extreme orange? is there much difference between the two?

I remember asking Paul when I ordered some and he told me to get the Extreme Orange so that`s what I ordered. I diluted it 5:1 so I have 5 gallons for about $3.04 per gallon.

is that dilution ratio pretty strong, how would it do on tires and road grime? what do you us it for?

Yeah, it`s still pretty strong. I`ve always used 4-09 to clean my wheels and tires so I decided to give this a shot. I`d be willing to guess that I could have diluted it even more. Even at 5:1 I think it`s a good bit stronger than 4-09. I`ve been trying to find out what other products people use to clean their wheels as all the degreasers I`ve used make my rotors rusty. I have an 07 vette with cross-drilled rotors and even though I use an electric leaf blower to dry the car (and rotors) I`ll still have several drips of rusty water on the bottom of the wheels. Sorry to be long winded, but if you`re looking for a strong degreaser, I don`t think you`ll be disappointed.
