Wasn't there a problem with the original Simple Green that it could attack
aluminium or something? How did they fix that with the Aviation Cleaner?


Yes there is a corrosion issue with regular Simple Green. The new Extreme
Simple Green is different, it isn't even green.

I have been using Carbon X, which is Ph neutral -- the problem with
regular Simple Green is that it is acidic and will attack aluminum and
magnesium. I would presume that the new Extreme Simple Green is a
similar product to Carbon X -- the prices appear to be about the same.

I have been using a 10% - 30% mixture of Carbon X in a spray bottle to
remove bugs -- I let it soak a couple of minutes and then wipe the bugs
off with a wet sponge. It does not attack dope or paint -- something
which 409 will do.

I assume that Extreme Simple Green would normally be applied in diluted
form, too.
