Chase@InsanePaint Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I'd dilute it to 50/50. Or just use 2oz mixed in with your car shampoo. But it won't remove hard water spots, that's what polishing is for. And be ready to immediately re-protect any areas you use it on, it strips ANY protection.

PacificNWBuckeye Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 WD-40 works great on tar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savi01 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Clay bar would probably be the safest, and AFAIK, I think you can use full strength APC if the job requires it as long as you don't let it dry on the paint. I used full strength to help take off an INSANE amount of nasty bugs on my truck this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So.Chi.Goat Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Apc can be used for antthing as long as u don't let it dry...and I mean none...keep either a hose or more spray ready so when it starts drying u get to spraying Tapa Mobile.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Yep... I use a 1:1 mixture for a presoak on the front end for really bad bug guts and also the quarter panel areas behind the wheels for road tar and grime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigaudiofanatic Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 A friend of mine did full strength APC and with clay bar. Of course the clay only lasted a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you wax or use a sealant every time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
