    using a pad cleaner

    What all do you use an APC for?

    I see folks use an APC for wheel wells and tires, but what else am i missing? I remember a thread a while back that someone posted they use a product that HD sells and dilute it and it works great as an APC. Will the APC be safe enough for paint to use as a bug remover and degreaser? Please...
