I'm almost out of my original Meguiars APC D101 and am wondering which one to get...any recommendations?



APC+ D103 seems nice in that its basically what I used before, and its now low-sudsing which would work great in my extractor. But I've read it shouldn't be used on paint - so I couldn't use it for sap, tar, bird bombs, paint scrapes, etc.



Optimum Power Clean seems to be good for paint, but not for carpet or upholstery



3D Total - just got a bottle but haven't tried it out and don't know all the uses



3D APC - don't know anything about this one



My goal is to have something that would be appropriate for any use but it seems like each has limitations (my comments above)
 
For me it's Total, as a true all round APC for what I use and how I use it, I can't fault it



Besides you already have some :D

They are basically the same product, except that Orange Degreaser contain d-Limonene.

Is the 24 oz 3d APC-Cirtus Degreaser full strength, 1:4, or 1:10?

1|4. You dont want to use any of our degreasers at full strength. The larger sizes should be diluted at least 1|4.
 
I voted for TOTAL. Very underated product and is on-par or better with all on the poll too. Super safe on leather and is very "clean" on fabrics. They actually reformulated it from its initial launching. I actually cut the RTU 50/50 with water and it's just as good. I also like OPC in alot of the same ways.

Hey Ben, could you comment on the smell of both products? I am assuming the orange one has a citrus smell. How about the green APC? If it smells anything close to 3D waterless wash, I am getting one!
 
Love Optimum Power Clean. I can safely use it on anything, including leather. According to my son, who usually does interiors when we work together, OCW is like cheating since it cleans so well. :lol
 
Here are some results from using Meguiar's D103 diluted 1:4. I've been very happy with it. Cheap too for a gallon.

I love D103+, because it works great and is super cheap.



However, I have heard great things about OPC. I just have to pick and choose the areas I spend more money on and APC hasn't been one of them.
