Chemical Guys has soooo many and its hard to tell the difference between a few of them (heavy duty orange degreaser vs signature series orange). So I figured we could use this as a place to line up all the chemical guys products that are considered APC'S and Degreasers and rank them from least potent to the most potent. I know the whole idea of potency is based on dilution rates, so lets just go with the bottle prescribed dilutions. So if you guys could offer up the products in the order in which you think they should be, maybe we can reach a concensus as to their potency. Also for those that are new here it would be nice to offer up a short description for each of their purposes and uses that way people looking for APC's and Degreasers will have a easier time picking one to go with their needs.

As much as I like D101 especially at it's price point and I have gone through a few gallons of it. I prefer Optimum Opti-Clean even diluted 1:1 over straight D101 especially on tires.
 
I use All Clean+ for exteriors and NonSense for interiors and that should take care of 99% of stuff. However, I like Adam's APC better for exteriors.
 
d101, opc are both great apc's and I have both on hand. lately I've been using lata apc on tires/wells diluted 1:1 with good results. the nice thing is I can pick up a gallon for around $5 at kmart down the street from me...
 
Interior
- Innerclean/ undiluted
- Nonsense 20:1
Exterior
- Orange Degreaser 30:1 if heavy contamination 15:1 ** this stuff eats through the bottle (I'll post a pic of the mess it made later)
-Nonsense 10:1

I'll be shopping for other products,more effective with a better price point, once these run out. The exception being InnerClean. I really like it for interior.

From the least aggressive to the most aggressive ones.

I personally used Clean All purpose cleaner 10:1 for interior
Orange degreaser 6:1 for engine bay and heavy contaminated places
Fabric clean 1:10 to clean seats, carpets with injection extraction.

Waiting to test

im waiting on the super secret APC the Nick mentioned would be out soon. For tire degreasing, i currently use Optimum Power Clean 3:1. Then i hit it with my PC and a black cyclo tire brush.
 
I have been hearing from a few people that apparently the signature series orange degreaser eats right through the bottle it comes I'm, is this true do any of you? And obviously this is true cause someone posted a pic of it. But I'm just wondering how often this is a issue
