I useto use Simple Green for automotive general cleaning and I have run out and want to know what you guys use that I should consider moving to?
 
I would go with Meguiars APC & Meguiars Super Degreaser. If you are looking for just one, go with the APC, you can dilute 10:1, and I've even heard of 12:1. Very economical and effective! I haven't found much it doesn't take care of at the right dilution ratio. It will even take care of 95% of what the degreaser handles, just takes a few repeat applications.

Meguiar’s All Purpose Cleaner Concentrate, 1 Gallon, works on carpet, fabric, vinyl, and leather for all-over interior cleaning.

Meguiars Super Degreaser Concentrate, meguiars D10801
 
Go to the dollar store and buy some totally awesome. Works great for me and very cheap
 
Meguiars D101 (APC)......very economical to use......I keep three different dilutions on the shelf
 
Megs APC+ or Optimum PowerClean here. I got PowerClean in a local trade. When comes time for refills - the cheapest per diluted ounce will be my purchase.

LATA has been getting a lot good
reviews lately. Here's a few of 'em:

If you don't want to use detailing
products, LA Awesome from the
dollar store works too
& can be diluted.

IME, LA's Totally Awesome is about
the best APC money can buy.

One of the best (maybe the best)
pad cleaners out there.

Also it is superior to other APCs
for wheel wells and tires.

I use a lot of it.

If it wasn't for a killer bogo deal on some blackfire last year I would be using Megs. For the price I don't think it can be beat.
 
Simple....Optimum Power Clean aka Alien Kleen! I've been using it since I joined AG over 5 years ago, amazing product and should always be diluted atleast 3:1.
 
Is D101 safe on leather?

That's one of the reasons I'm leaning towards OPC. The other reason is that another user on here claimed that OPC was much better at removing old tire dressing.

Other than those 2 things, OPC and D101 seem nearly equal.

Yes, it's completely safe for leather. I've used it many many times to clean leather & vinyl [as have many other people] even in combination with a steamer. If you check out the back label of Meguiars D180 Leather Cleaner & Conditioner it even recommends D101 APC for severely soiled areas that D180 might not be able to handle.
