I have a love/hate relationship with this stuff.
Non petroleum based, bio degradeable, yada. Works almost as well as Foamy without the stink or environmental problems. Works on engines and garage floors. Removes baked on gunk if you help it with a brush. Available at Costco, cheap. Dilute at least 1 to 1. Bad news. Do not use on shiny alloy surfaces, especially if warm. It will etch, and you should use a pressure washer to remove the gook. Little home steam cleaners are good for spot cleaning around the house, pretty much useless on heavy grease. |
