Dollar Store cleaner hidden gem

[Holidaycoffee]

Before and after pictures dollar store awesome cleaner and a brush attachment on my Milwaukee drill. Love this stuff! This talon sat for almost 15 years in a field in northern Minnesota. Does have some rust but is very clean underneath frame is solid! But sadly the rockers are toast.. Thinking about making a set.

I have been using Awesome for some time now. Spray it on the rims and watch the brake dust drip away..No need to scrub...just spray and rinse.

It’s definitely my go to cleaner for heavy duty cleaning

The awesome is great also to remove the glue from the old windows films

I tried doing research on this cleaner but the website gave me nothing. I was near a dollar store today and picked some up to try. Reading the label it contains 2 butoxy ethanol. Hopefully this will help someone in the future trying to determine chemical compatibility and/or application. For more information this is a good start:

2-Butoxyethanol - Wikipedia

I tested it out on a rug between my garage and main house that got hit with oil. It works really well. My method was to wet the rug, apply product full strength, and scrub with a brush. Hose off and repeat application if necessary. As the initial post says, this is a hidden gem.

Very nice, came out well. Scrubbing with a brush is definitely the way to go. I've done the passed 4 field find dsms with Bissell carpet cleaner, carpet extractor, steamer and brushes, mine didn't come out as good as yours.
Guess when I'm south of the boarder I'll kave to keep my eye out for that stuff.

I have been using Awesome for years on my rental, better than any carpet cleaner at a fraction of the cost.
I do notice it is somewhat harsh on my respiratory system so I recommend a well ventilated area, fans, have windows open, etc.

Fun fact. This is also a good tire cleaner and gets that brown brake dusty look off tires. Good stuff.

I've been using LA's Totally Awesome for many years. It can clean up a greasy engine better than the Gunk degreaser that you pay $6 per can. I buy this stuff by the gallon. And I'll share a little tip. Have you ever been replacing an oil pan gasket and had a handful of nasty bolts? I'll take an empty bottle, toss the bolts in, pour in a few ounces of solution, put the cap on and start shaking. Shake it around for a few minutes and pour out the contents. The bolts will look new again.

Another useful dollar store item is those humidity absorber things that absorb 4-8 oz of water vapor in any enclosed space in case you have issues with water leaks, seeps or spills into the cabin or trunk.

They look like this but cost around $1 or maybe a bit more:
