I plan to add my arsenal with either pre wax cleaner or AIO product. My three favourites are dg 501, p21s gepc, and PPCL.
Anyone who has experience with dg501 and either p21s or ppc, would you give suggestion which one has the best chemical cleaning power ? thanks. Feed back please
 
I haven't found anything that cleans better than 501. It's quite a remarkable product and the protection it lays down is really impressive.
 
If you're looking for a pure chemical cleaner with no abrasives (dg501 has mild abrasives) I would definitely recommend Klasse AIO. I think it's perfect.

the only problem with Klasse AIO is that its not a pure cleaner, it lays down solid protection as well. But I would agree Klasse AIO is a very potent cleaner that works with minimal rubbing.

I personally think Pinnacle paint cleaner is the best pure paint cleaner on the market. I actually use it in place of clay on imbedded tar and staining on lower panels if I want to avoid polishing. Its incredibly flexible and easy to use. I go around the car and apply to it all the tar and heavy contaminated areas. wait about 5 minutes or more, then wipe it up with a foam applicator. The only problem is that its expensive. might be a good idea to buy the 64 oz bottle if you use it the way I do on every other wash or so. try using it with a white hand applicator and you will see how effective it can be on bad stains.
 
My understanding of the basic steps in paint-care...
(Of Course!!...I could be wrong in this understanding):


1. Wash
2. Clay, if it's been a while
3. Depending on the severity of blemishes/damages: scratches/haze/oxidation...
Compounding/Polishing step(s) once or twice a year; or, as needed.
4. Seal/LSP of choice to protect and enhance shine.


-I ask myself: 'Why, then, the need for an 'extra paint cleaner'?

-Besides using a decontamination system (ValuGard's; FinishKare's) at the onset
when a vehicle is new; or, for later-on-down-the-road contaminates removal...
I actually believe that I'm 'cleaning the paint' in the first three steps I've listed above!!

IMHO...
Adding one additional 'cleaning step' in my paint-care basic processes is:
1. Just "make-work" (another trip around a vehicle)
2. More CC-abrasion
3. Marketing
a.) Someone trying to get more money from me, a consumer
b.) Another bottle to sit on my shelves

NOTE:
Before I go...
After a wash:
Often I just
Use an "AIO".

Available at AG, I have or have used the following:
Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing Lotion will restore and preserve your car's original beauty.
Wolfgang Pre-Wax Polish Enhancer is absolutely fabulous for producing that elusive, show-ready wet-shine look. This polish actually enhances and
Duragloss Marine RV Polish #501 cleans, polishes, and shines gelcoat fiberglass boat and RV finishes. Duragloss durable boat and RV polishes.
P21S Gloss Enhancing Paintwork Cleanser car polish - This pre-wax cleaner and polish is a German blend of quality ingredients that will make wax
They are all good but probably the one with the "deepest" cleaning power is #501.
You may want to consider:
Auto Finesse Rejuvenate - if you are going to use a paste wax;
Auto Finesse Tough Prep - if you are going to use a sealant.
Auto Finesse is a very nice brand: it's a pitty AG doesn't carry it.
