I'm fairly new to the detailing and I was wondering which company has the best apc.. I currently in the testing phase of products and I've used spray nine and stoners apc. Stoners didn't seem to work to well but spray nine was okay. any opinions.
 
From P&S I use there Enviro-clean on a 10/1 and love it great smel and cleans about as good as anything that I've tried
 
In my experience, I've found they're all pretty much the same. It really just depends on the dilution, but all dilutions aren't the same strength. Car Brite Citrus MP was about the most concentrated APC I've used.
 
Lots of these cirtus cleaners are great, the Enviro-clean is....I also have 409 hanging around mixed on a 50/50 for those harder to clean jobs.,
 
I use the Kirkland's brand from costco, it is <$5 for 1.25 gallon. Dillutes as needed, very nice smell, good cleaner.
 
I like Meguiar's APC+. Has anybody compared any of the products mentioned to APC+?
 
Has anyone ever tried a company called Car Products? They are out of Springfeild Mass, I use their Maxi Clean on everything, motors, whitewalls, leather, plastic, pre soak for Heavily stained carpets, undercarriages, etc. Stuff is awesome, I get it through the dealership I work for, that I know of that is their main market targeting. I have used Simple Green in the past, and this stuff dilluted 50-1 is stronger than simple green straight IMO, I use this on motors and whitewalls at 20-1, we have a wall mounted dilluter so we use it this way on everything, 55 gallon drum lasts us 2 1/2 months, and we average 175 retail vehicles a month, about 50 auction "rats", and around 25 customer cleans. Seems to last forever, pricey but well worth it. Only drawback for carpets is this stuff is very tough to get all of it out, suds forever! If you use a heated extractor it removes it instantly, heat breaks it down it seems. www.carproductsinc.com
 
I have heard that Production's Slam is good, but I am currently using Hi-Temp's all purpose cleaner. It is really concentrated, can be diluted 30:1 for vinyl and fabric. It is also really cheap at around 12-13 a gallon.

I"ve used simple green, megs apc + (butal and non) and 4s white lightning. I really like the 4s the best. I do however use a lot of megs citrigel cleaner. It's a good compliment i feel, but definatly not a replacement.
 
I use Pink Stuff. I like it cause its not all that strong so you dont have to worry about its be too abrasive. However I have to use a lot of it cause of this.
