Ok. So like must of you, I have my vehicles I want to "winterize" and do my full corrections, sealants, etc. before the "harsher" months come here in Nor Cal. Well the PC kit should be on the way shortly and I'm getting my game plan together.
I'm not keen on the dawn wash to clean and remove everything, the IPA I use on occasion for a quick strip and re-apply of wax on focus areas. But, I really want to use a dilluted APC to throw in the foam gun and strip everything that way. It will clean completely take care of the seals for me, bugs, wax, past sealants, etc that have built up. Does anyone know of a dillution chart for the Adam's APC? What would be a good dillution for paint/clear?
I really would like to see a dillution table for the Adam's APC like many of the other brands. Here is an example from an unnamed brand that I also use on occasion. Has something like this ever been brought up before? I would use the APC alot more often than I do, but I'm not sure what to cut it at. I currently use 25 (1:3),50 (1:1),75 (3:1) and full strength bottles. But they really don't get alot of use because I'm sure of what to use them on. Sorry about the long post......
