I was given a free sample of this product from AutoGeek and agreed to post an honest review so here it is.
I used this product to test the cleaning ability on our Mazda3's dashboard. I had applied Optimum Protectant Plus at least 3 months ago (which was still going strong). I sprayed EcoTouch D+T Cleaner on a clean microfiber towel and wiped an area clean. It appeared that the solution is somewhat foamy (like cleaning with diluted Woolite). I cleaned another area of the panel with Simple Green diluted 30:1 sprayed on another clean microfiber towel. Here are the results:
Left: Cleaned with Simple Green (30:1)
Middle: 3+ month old Optimum Protectant Plus
Right: Cleaned with EcoTouch Dashboard + Trim Cleaner
With flash:
Without flash:
With the flash, it looks like Simple Green (30:1) cleaned better and EcoTouch D+T Cleaner left some streaking. Without the flash, it looks like EcoTouch D+T Cleaner did a better job of cleaning. To me, it's a toss-up. You be the judge.
Since I try to use all eco-friendly products in my business, I appreciate EcoTouch's mission with their products. I think their products are priced competitively. If I were to purchase more of their products in the future, I would actually purchase them through the EcoTouch website because they are 20% cheaper than AutoGeek. Although, the gallon jug of Wash + Polish is priced the same on both sites.
With that said, I doubt that I would purchase Dashboard + Trim Cleaner. I feel that Simple Green will do the same thing at a much cheaper price (when dilluted) and is also eco-friendly. However, I would like to try EcoTouch Metal Polish and Carpet + Upholstery. I don't see myself trying the Wash + Polish as ONR is unbeatable at this point, IMO.
Pro's:
-Eco-friendly
-Gentle on hands and automotive surfaces
-Competitively priced vs. other pre-mixed automotive cleaners.
-No noticeable scent
Cons:
-Can't match Simple Green in price when diluted.
-So many other automotive cleaning products out there that will do the same job albeit most are not eco-friendly.
Comments and questions welcomed!
