I went to Wal-Mart and was looking for my favorite all time cleaner Castrol Super
Clean and was told that the EPA banned it?! What!?! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) I guess the "associates" said they were ticked as well. No warning just, nope sorry we can't stock you anymore in California. You look hard for a good de-greaser, find it cheap and now they ban it! They pointed to Purple Power and I said forget it that stuff sucks. So anybody have a good alternative to use? I know what I'm coming back with the next time I hit Arizona. |

Just to play devil's advocate: You have to think about how the average joe disposes of stuff like this. It often ends up in the food supply or in ground-water. Once there is might make young kids grow up with the wrong number of limbs or severe mental retardation. It might also help you to develop cancer.
Theres probably a reason why it's been taken off the market. |
