I have a gallon of Griot's APC for interiors and really like it. I do not like the price though and sicne it doesnt reuie dilution the $20 on sale gallon vs. Meg's 103 Gallon at $16 plus a 10:1 ratio is almost a no brainer right?



How is the cleaning power of 103, the smell? Does it require a wet cloth to wip off.



I like Griots because it is really a WOWO product that cleans lots of surfaces very well. I've only used it on plastics, vinyls, and headliners so far.

Do you mean their Interior Cleaner?



I've never tried the M103, but after using 3D's (green) APC for a while I'm thinking of doing without the Griot's Interior Cleaner :think:

Thanks for clarifying. I've used that stuff since forever (about the time of Griot's, oh....maybe third catalog!) so yeah I think it's OK.



Somebody here had it clean the "writing" right off some interior switches! I never expected it to be so potent, never did that for me :nixweiss



I still like it, but it doesn't clean anything like the 3D stuff, at least not at the dilution I'm mixing the 3D up (just doing it by eye, not making it really potent or anything).



I bet a lot of APCs are gonna be cheaper when you buy 'em in concentrate. I suspect ValuGard's Omni is *REALLY* good, but it's just a little pricey.
 
Fox, the Meg's APC+ (aka D103) is an excellent product. No need to second guess that one. Optimum's product is also very good and diverse in its abilities.

Yes. (I've had outstanding results on interior tasks with this product...when a little more cleaning power is needed.)

I agree, I've lifted denim dye transfer from leather with Power Clean that D103, Adam's APC, Adam's Leather and Interior cleaner couldn't touch. However, D103 had always been my go-to for interior cleaning. Diluted to interior cleaning strength it's just over a dollar a gallon and it is very effective.
 
Yeah, I got good results with Power Clean when I did the initial Big Cleanup of the older Crown Vic (hideously bad light gray :rolleyes: ). BUT...I seem to be getting even better results with a maybe-sorta-strong mix of the 3D (green) APC.
