Expert Analysis
This is a high-pH alkaline bug remover formulated at pH 12 using a butyl-heavy approach with 2-butoxyethanol as the primary co-solvent. The alkaline system helps break down protein-based bug residues while the glycol ether provides excellent solvency for organic contaminants.
Key Differentiators
- •Butyl-heavy formulation for enhanced organic soil removal
- •High-sudsing formula for visual cleaning feedback
- •Professional strength with high alkalinity
- •Pleasant grape fragrance to mask chemical odors
Potential Concerns
- ⚠Highly corrosive requiring careful PPE usage
- ⚠Not suitable for matte or satin finishes
- ⚠May degrade existing protection coatings
- ⚠Contains Proposition 65 listed trace contaminant (1,4-dioxane)
