Meg Body Solvent or Surf City RTGD

[D Tailor]

So as I am running low on SC Road Trip Grime Destroyer, I was thinking of picking up some Meg's Body Solvent. What does everyone think of MBS? Worth it instead of SCRTGD OR in addition to?

I like it very much. It is very affordable (I get it local), smells great, and disolves solvent based sticky crap in a matter of minutes. One of my recent details (a Lincoln Aviator) had all kinds of sticky nastiness in the door jambs, it felt like rubber cement only more tacky. I sprayed some MBS on and let it dwell for ~10 minutes while I cleaned the tires and wiped the stickiness off with a MF with no effort at all. I am definitely a fan of MBS.

Thanks Jimmy. How would it work on Grease? Sometimes I use SCRTGD in engine bays instead of harsher engine cleaners. Would MBS work in the same way?

I, personally, have never used it for that use but I would imagine that it could work for that purpose. I understand that you don't want to use harsh engine cleaners, but I would imagine that no one would if MBS was equally effective. If you do use it for that purpose, I would use it on an engine that was not heavily soiled. Come to think of it, it cut the remnants grease that Safe D-greaser left alongside the sticky stuff pretty well. I guess just give it whack! Buy a gallon, you won't be dissatisfied.

THanks! I'm gonna do it.
