Heh heh...yeah, you got me there...sorry, didn`t mean to be inscrutable
For "solvents" I was thinking of products ranging from 3M Adhesive Remover and PrepSol-type stuff down to the milder/safer ValuGard NewCarPrep. Products that uhm, emulsify grease/etc. and then evaporate cleanly.
Some new-to-me vehicles were so filthy under the hoods that they genuinely appeared to have been spraypainted with thick black uncercoating. Cleaned `em up bit by bit with no problems at all using those types of products on the nasty areas. And FWIW on some of these vehicles I started by scraping off handfuls of grease with a putty knife (so much on there I wasn`t worried about its blade marring anything). Got `em spic-and-span without getting anything wet (not that I`m paranoid about that, get `em wet now at every wash).
The ValuGard is about as safe-for-everything as products get. I probably wouldn`t use it on interiors but I`m sure plenty of guys do. I kinda prefer the stronger options but I know many err on the side of caution.
I guess I`d also include GG Rubber Prep here, used a lot of that on underhood rubber and plastics. Safer on things with adhesive than the 3M or NewCarPrep by far, utterly Accumulator-proof.
Sorry if every one knows this, but what is "GG Rubber Prep".

Right. It`s one of those products that has *really* impressed me, far more than I ever expected. IMO every detailer oughta have a bottle on the shelf. Rubber, plastics...works great for me and if it leaves anything behind it`s never caused issues as I don`t rinse/IPA/etc. afterwards but rather just apply my product of choice.Originally Posted by MattPersman
