no problem. its not a silly question for the uninitiated.

APC = all purpose cleaner

if you can't get hold of autosmart G101 then meguiars APC is the next best thing...

you can dilute it down 10:1 so it makes very good value for money...

APC is one cleaning product I wouldn't be without  :wink:

you could finish your interior plastics off with something like poorboys natural look if you wanted  :smiley:

its made by a company called 151, its exactly the same as g101 and is neat so can be diluted the same as 101 aswell :grin: ive got tones of the stuff lol, dont tell my mrs though :rolleyes:

also guy and anyone else they sell kent microfibres in packs of 6 and they are 2 for £5 atm and are good for general cleaning tasks/glass/plastic etc etc, ive even used them to buff off polishes and sealants without scratches as they are soft enough. bargains to be had lads :grin:
