I have been thinking about getting some power clean. What dilutions do you like and for what intended purposes.

Bang for the buck you won't find a better all purpose cleaner than the Meg's Detailer line. 1 gallon makes 11 gallons of product. The D103 is the APC+, which is the low sudsing formula making it better for professionals using a carpet extractor. Other than that, there's not much of a difference between the two products, both are highly noted and used by many professionals. 11 gallons for $13.99 (less the AZ discount) means your roughly a buck a gallon. Tough to beat that.

I just bought some Zep Citrus with a gift card I had at Home Depot, I have been reading alot of good things about this product replacing P21S TAW, and for 11 dollars a gallon you can't beat it.

Should be the same... both are safe when diluted to the right ratio and used properly.
