lol calm down fellas!!!!

I didnt even know this contest even existed. I had ordered some goodies with Patrick and he sent me a partial order. I called the very next day at 8am, wondering about the rest of my order. He said he was shipping it out as we spoke. He also threw in the sample.

I then put two and two together and realized he was shipping me one of the 9 samples.
Thanks again, Pat.

I ask because I always forget to check the front porch and things often sit out there for days. USPS puts the stuff in my mailbox.

You heard the storry about "truth" didn't you ?

You had a President that couldn't tell a lie ( Geo Washington )
You had a President that couldn't tell the truth ( Nixon )

Canadians have a leader that cant tell the difference. ......

Oh I will, maybe tomorrow if I get the chance, the engine bay is sooooooo filthy. I don't think I've ever cleaned it?

Since I don't have access to water hose (Live in a condo, I only have access to electrical outlets, parking garage is underground), I'll be going to the coin wash tomorrow to try out this stuff, gonna try it out on my engine bay, can't wait!
And yes I'll take before/after pictures lol

Are you sure you can handle the truth?

Anyways, here is my take on the product:

Product name: SW1000 Degreaser

Product use: Heavy duty degreaser, can be diluted as much as 1:20 for light cleaning.

Product review: I used the degreaser @ 1:5 strength to clean my never before detailed engine bay (2 and 1/2 years worth of grime and grease and Lord knows what else lol). It did a fantastic job of cleaning the engine bay. Now, I'm sure the other APCs out there are just as capable (like Meguiars APC+ and P21S TAW), but this one is by far the "least offensive smell" of them all. With Megs APC+ and P21S TAW, I often find the need to wear a mask. The smell of this product, however, while still stinks a bit, is much more bearable (is that a word? lol). I'll let before/after shots do the rest of the talking, keep in mind no conditioner/dressing was used on the plastic components.
