    If you can find Simple Green Automotive/motersports it would be better than the regular Simple Green. The normal one is somewhat corrosive to aluminum so I never liked to use it but the Motersports version is approved for use on airplanes and thus a little safer.

    I did use it on wheels once, painted wheels, and it worked ok no better than Megs APC. I would still go with Megs APC if you are able to get it much more versatile and safer I think.

    Simple Green Max is the one that is the automotive cleaner/degreaser, which says it on the label. It's also a black bottle which is probably the one you saw.

    It is like Meguiar's APC but the Simple Green Max is has a fairly low ph of 9.5 so it should be safe on all wheels. I believe it is also approved for us on vehicle paint but you'll have to read the specifics on the back of the bottle.

    Simple Green Max works great, you will be surprised how well it works.

    When I first started detailing, I used Simple Green for a while and it worked pretty good. Can't really fault it.

    I only can get regular simple green on local shop, there is no simple green max or special for automative.

    thanks for all the input.
