Looking for a new tire only cleaner.... My "go to" product is no longer made.

Would Meguiar's Super Degreaser or Simple Green be better?
 
Richie uses Zeps 505, and I know he knows what he's doing, but can anyone help compare this to OP's items?
 
I currently work for one of the largest wholesale b2b maintenance and repair distribution companies in the country and " The Home Depot" purchased us 6 months ago. I've sold a few gallons of apc's in my career LOL.

They are all pretty much the same depending on whether it's neutral or not. MSDS sheets tell it all.

I said it before, Megs. All of their cleaners are excellent. Great values for the $$
 
I only wish I could put my tire cleaner on here but it's not sold here and isn't a brand name but man does it work.
 
What would be the dilution ratio?

I'd refer to the labels, it varies depending on what your cleaning, soil level etc. This pretty much applies to all concentrated cleaners, degreasers, apc's etc.
 
Thanks..... that's what I'll do as soon as it arrives. Just thought you'd have an idea about the use for tires since that will be my major use of the product.
 
For me, Optimum Power Clean 4:1 has better results on the tires than Meguiar's Super Degreaser 4:1.
 
I have both and think D108@4:1 cleans tires much better than D101 at any dilution, even straight.

4:1

D108 is a Super Degreaser and D101 is an All Purpose Cleaner. That's why I have both in my arsenal. You don't always need a heavy duty degreaser and vice a versa.
 
I am a big fan of Meguiars D108 and Simple Green.
Have both in my arsenal, as well as D101.
I would have to go with Simple Green for cleaning power.
Simple Green is an APC, but they do make a degreaser which is as good as any.

The negative on Simple Green is the heavy color additive and the flash chemical.
It will stain wheels and paint if you are not right on top of your work.
The scent of Simple Green is also pretty bad.

The Meguiars may be the better choice for production detailing, truthfully.
You can always use it RTU without dilluting, for that extra strength when needed.

More than enough reasons for me to never use it on a vehicle.👆🏽
