  • Two Keepers For Me

    I'm impressed!

    Today I used both Detailer Glass Cleaner and APC for the first time. The glass cleaner is nothing short of awesome. This is the first automotive glass cleaner that I've tried-and I've tried several over the years-that will actually cut the vinyl outgas fog off the windshield without leaving a gummy sticky mess behind. I took the MOL expert's advice and cleaned with a terry followed by a microtowel wipedown. Not a streak to be had and absolutely no residue left behind! Thanks Megs for adding another great product to my arsenal.

    Now, for my APC question (10:1 dilution). This product worked wonders on the grime and crud which had found its way into every nook and cranny of the interior vinyl. Is APC, at this dilution, intended to be left as-is once applied and wiped down or should it be followed with a water-only damp towel off?

    Well it really depends some would say after wiping APC off its good to go, but for me I like doing a second wipe down with a wet microfiber or terry cloth on my vinyl or leather then dry it up just to make sure, but if you don't have the time you can proceed with your favorite dressing. That's just from my experience. Someone else might chime in soon.

      I dont really follow up APC with a damp cloth to focus on removing it, but I will follow it up with some kind of dressing or QID on the interior.

        I just go to town with 1 towel and the APC...even at 4:1 I don't have issues leaving it behind.

        The only time you may want to follow up on a consistent basis (IMHO at least) is on carpet as it *can* sometimes leave it stiff (albeit it TOTALLY clean) so getting the excess off helps to make it soft again.

          I can't say that I follow up with a damp towel all the time. I really have no concerns about it.

            I had some drip on a leather seat while I was cleaning the carpet and it ate the color off!
