[diesel_mercedes] Re: Purple Power Test

 



Simple Green is very good stuff indeed *BUT* it dries fast and if you allow it to dry before washing it off with cold water , it stains and you'll _NEVER_ get those stains out .

When it's foggy or drizzling , I use Simple Green to easily clean all the Diesel Smoot off the back of my Coupe , I spray it on and swish it 'round with a soft bristle brush (paint brush) , working it in the crevices under the badges and so on .

Fork lifts do not have the same delicate electrical MPC's Automobiles do ~ I'll not use a steam cleaner ever again as I have repaired the damage done too many times .

Well, I squirted away today in my engine bay. My conclusions: Purple Power and Simple Green are similar cleaners (de-greasers). But Purple Power is cheaper than Simple Green. That could just be a concentrate issue. Once you have "degreased" they both can use a low power wash at my do-it-yourself $1 car wash to really clean the gunk off.  I have 1/2 bottles of PP and Simple Green so I will alternate them to see which one I like the most. But, my favorite is still those Clorox wipes that you use in the kitchen and bathroom because - not only do they have a cleaner, but it is delivered on a wet pad that absorbs the grease, oil, and scum. For the heavy duty oily underbelly, there is a car wash at the corner of San Gabriel & Mission that will tilt your car 45 degrees and steam clean it. I know (Nate) there are potential issues with steam cleaning, but I steam cleaned fork lifts for 5 years and I think if you are careful and take proper precautions life will be good.  Happy to fill up for $3.56 / gallon today. I'll be happier at $2.50 / gallon but don't think that will happen in my lifetime.
