Indeed. Would you recommend this product as a pad cleaner? For heavily stained pads from SS paint?
I bought a bag of Wolfgang's Pad Rejuvenator, havent tried it yet though.

after
just quick hand washing
bowl of dawn and ipa

and then rinse clean in sink

I also use Dawn with great success, just figured id give a dedicated pad cleaner a shot.
I havent forgot about reviewing GG Pre-Wax Clenser either. Its just that I havent had time to detail at all this week. This sunday though I have a client coming in and ill have a chance to review 5-6 products.

Don't want to jump in on SO1C's review, but since I have used All Clean+ to clean pads recently, I can say it really did help cleaning them. I was working on single stage silver paint and my white pads got caked, I had All Clean+ premixed at a 15:1 ratio and i sprayed the pad a few times let them soak in my bucket, afterwards I had to do very little, the AC+ really helped release tons of gunk from the pads!

I haven't had the chance to use it on tires let alone with a foaming sprayer, I have faith it would perform at least well, but I'll gladly update when I have the chance
however I will add it was almost sudsing/foaming in the interior on spray and agitation with the standard issue cg sprayer
btw, I'm glad

yes, thats what I was wondering. if it foamed somewhat with a regular sprayer and when agitated, which you answered. thx.
i dont like using a foaming sprayer at all. It wastes a lot of product and its hard to get good coverage.

I was using some AllClean+ today to try to remove some unknown gunk from the dead pedal of my miata before it gets shipped off to its new owner.
I tired to let it sit for a while and soak off the mystery goo but found that Optimum Power Clean was able to dissolve it better. I could actually see the color of the mystery gunk flowing away from the stain with powerclean.
Ultimately neither was able to totally get rid of it, even scrubbing with a brush. I had to scrape it off with a plastic blade.
Generally for interior cleaning though AllClean+ seems to work very nicely. I also used it on some long-soiled cracks and crevices and it got the job done.

I didn't because I didn't have an empty bottle to mix it into handy.
Mechanical means was fine since it's not a show car and just a dead pedal.
The sad part of this story is that after all my hard exterior paint work, the guy wants to plasti-dip or vinyl wrap the car. Learning experience!
IN OTHER NEWS: I've used the All Clean in the old civic that has maybe had 5 years of cleaning neglect since the last time it was thoroughly gone-over and it did amazing things. I did some testing with AC+ at 20:1 and Folex on the carpets and I think the AC+ actually removed more overall gunk than the Folex. The AC+ also got a lot of the nasty interior panels that never get cleaned to look good again. Plus it doesn't stink. Can't argue with that.

I just bought a gallon of AllClean+ and am wondering if I got this right. On the bottle it says for interior use, dilute 20 parts water with one part AllClean. So.....I have a 25 fl oz bottle, that means only 1.25 fl oz All Clean and 24 fl oz water? Seems like a very small amount of product, or do I have it wrong?

Yep, your dilution is about right. Technically you would use 1.19oz though :laughing:
