      APC+ is very versatile and you can use it even on non-detail related tasks. I use it around the house and there isn't any need for any other APC cleaner (Simple Green, etc.) as one gallon will last a very long time considering the dilution ratio which is from 4:1 - 10:1. It's one Meguiar's product in my arsenal I wouldn't be without.

        The only thing I would not use it on is leather. It seems a little powerful for leather. I would stick APC if cleaning leather. Sorry for saying leather so many times.

          Yeah. It is a very good product. We always keep a bottle in the house. The wife loves it.

            Meg's APC'S and APC'S in general are non-antibacterial, right? I keep this in mind when choosing when and where to use the APC.

            Is there really a strength difference between APC and APC+? I've been told that the only difference is the foaming action, (well and the color and scent). If you dilute APC 4:1; and APC + 4:1; they are both APC'S at 4:1. Maybe I'm misinformed.... I used APC on leather yesterday at 10:1, because I wanted the foaming action, (see http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42631) and had outstanding results.

              I dont think Meguiars was worried about your tires being germ free..

              If antibacterial stuff is good or not is really a whole other issue.

              I believe APC+ also has a hint of degreaser in it.

                Yeah, my antibacterial statement was geared towards the comments about using it around the house. Additionally, on my own vehicle, I use anti-bacterial cleaners after APC on the steering wheel and shifter.

                Good to know about the bit of degreaser. Are Meguiar's MSDS sheets available online anywhere?

                  Here you go: http://www.meguiars.com/msds/

                  Some of the information is classified regarding ingredients but if you have a question about safety and such, I am sure Meguiars Customer Care will help.

                      FWIW - MSDS don't always tell you ALL the active ingredients. MSDS aka Material Safety Data Sheets are intended for reporting known hazardous ingredients in a product so it is possible a supplier will not disclose non-hazardous active ingredients.
