I don't have an air compressor to try out a tornador, I hope soon though. I had a coupon and decided to take the jump on this.

I like it better because:
1. Its cheaper and dilution is higher.
2. It foams (unlike Diablo - too thick) when used with a foaming sprayer.
You can use it to clean engines and wheel wells as well. The dilution is 1:5.

Pick up a new sprayer for that APC+ bottle. Mine is absolutely terrible.

This stuff came today:
All new stuff for me to try, except DG 952 (AW). I'm loving AW now, one of my favorite spray waxes. For some reason, it didn't jive with my previous LSP (Finis). But, its working great with Souverän and Naviwax Ultimate. It does seem to attract some dust though.
I plan on doing a dust test with the FK 425. I'm going to apply it to one side of the vehicle only(tape line style) and compare the dust on both sides.
The sample is BF WD conditioning shampoo, I've never used a conventional PBMG shampoo before and a lot of people like this. Reviews are also very high for Ultima Paint Guard Wash. 1oz : 3 gallons make it very inexpensive. Also, it's a 22oz bottle, most manufacturers bottles in this price range are only 16oz.
Going to try the Langka Blob Eliminator on some bumper chips on my Pathfinder with Nissan Touch up paint. The thing is, factory touch up paint for a ten year + old car is always darker. Its meant to match the color when the car was new. My theory is because the paint color fades from UV light over time. Ten + years of sitting outside in the sun lightens the color a shade or two. I've pulled off the roof rack mounts, and the paint is noticeably darker. The color of the primer looks white on the bumper chips, so they sort of stick out. If this stuff works it will be awesome.
I was out of the bottle size of AW. My new theory is just to buy a gallon of everything I really like. I'm trying to narrow down some of my supplies (rinseless / waterless / APC / tire cleaner / wheel cleaner) - those items I'm going to try to use up what I have and just go with gallons of what works best for me.
So far I got:
-Tuff Shine Tire Cleaner gallon
-Pinnacle Rinseless gallon
-Sticky Wheel Cleaner gallon
-Maxi Sud II gallon (will replace with Honeydew when empty)
-Billet Hamber Snow Foam gallon
-ONR V3 gallon (for clay lube and rinseless washes where I plan to wax afterwards)
-Grime Reaper gallon (strong APC)
-Meg's APC+ gallon (will replace this with Duragloss APC when gone)
Meg's Final Inspection gallon (got it for ten bucks!)
Still want:
BF rinseless gallon (when I use up the BOGO bottles)
Pinnacle Waterless Wash gallon (have many BOGO bottles)
Citrus Wash Red gallon
But spray waxes and shampoos don't apply to that rule - I love collecting both.

Nice! I hope you do a review on the Langka kit. I've read many reviews but having recent ones always are nice.
I like your list! If I may suggest, go with the WW concentrate for Pinnacle. I have both the WW(RTU) and the concentrate and the concentrate works exactly the same and you get more
Why will you phase out the APC+ btw? Is the DG more cost effective or performs better?

Surprise, surprise...my girlfriend bought me these seats for my birthday today
, apparently she ordered them months ago. I've been eyeing these for months but never pulled the trigger. I was feeling kinda down with no one wishing me a happy b-day at the office and another year older and all lol.
Part 2 of my b-day gift to myself will arrive tomorrow...detailing related of course and one of the items will work perfectly with these seats. :xyxthumbs:

I just really like the DG APC. It foams up better than Meg's APC+ (which says low foaming for extractors right on the bottle). APC+ isn't bad at all, but for some reason I just like the DG better. DG does cost more, but a gallon will last me forever. I think it works better with a foaming trigger for stuff I use it for, mainly wheel wells.
Maybe its the cool color:
I would only buy the Pinnacle Waterless Concentrate. Anyone who pays for RTU is crazy / rich - or both.
I will review Langka. I tried Dr Color Chip for a single paint chip and it wasn't great. I think Dr CC may be better for road rash and Langka may be better for an isolated chip.
We will see.
