Simple Green Pirep

Every once in awhile someone asks about our favorite aerospace vehicle
cleaners and/or waxes. A few weeks ago I was in Texas at a NASCAR
race. One of the trailers out in front was manned by Simple Green
reps. I dragged my daughter away from the Earnhardt Jr. trailer long
enough to see if they were handing out free samples of cleaner. They
were, and even had the requisite pretty young lady doing her best
Vanna White routine. Unfortunately, the miniature sample bottles were
of the "regular" Simple Green and I was interested in the new aviation
grade stuff. Never one to give up easily on the possibility of a free
hand out, I weaseled my way to the front of the pack and asked the
wanta-be Ms. Vanna if she had any "Aviation grade Simple Green."
After she rolled her eyes and looked at me like I was from who knows
where, she said, "No and I don't know what you are talking about", and
then quickly regained her composure and went to handing out more
regular bottles. I shrugged to my daughter and began to turn away
like a puppy with his tail between his legs when I saw a case of the
"Extreme Simple Green Aircraft and Precision Formula" stacked right
behind Vanna with a full sized 32 oz. bottle perched on top out in
full display splendor. I pointed and I said that's what I'm looking
for. She turned and had a blank look on her face. She didn't even
know the stuff existed. Anyway, another rep standing beside us said
they didn't have any free samples of the new stuff. But, then he
asked if I was an aircraft mechanic. I told him no... I own an
airplane. He asked me what kind and I said Piper Cherokee. He handed
me the full new bottle and said go ahead and try it. Wow, success! I
brought my trophy prize home to try out on my bird and was sorely
disappointed. It didn't remove bugs off the leading edge worth a
darn. I tried it on a greasy spot and it worked great, though. I
tried it under the belly and to make a long story short, I spent the
next 15 minutes on my back with a rag, and 8437R's tummy never shined
so bright since her last new paint job years ago. It really works
great on belly grease and grime and fuel stains. It took me perhaps
1/5th of the bottle to do 37R's belly. I'll buy more when I've used
it up because it made the nasty job really go quickly. Aircraft
Spruce has it for $10. It meets Boeing spec D6-1748P.
