Maybe an oversimplified title... I’m talking for cleaning plastic stuff, blow molded cases, painted/powdercoated metal, etc. Not cars, guns, sensitive stuff.
I’m finishing up a pretty substantial refurbishment of a 120’ long building. A lot of my power tools are dusty and grimy, the cases have a lot of grit and grime on them, etc. I dont need things to be as-new, or eat off of them clean, but I don’t want a lot of grit a s grime.
Ice been wiping a lot of non metal stuff down with either water, an all purpose cleaner (fantastik), or pledge, depending upon how dirty it is. For items just a little dirty, going straight to pledge seems to work very well, especially if the dirtinesss is just fine dust.
Pledge is water, pareafin, and dimethicone (poly dimethylsikoxane, or PDMS). Same stuff as in silicone spray it seems
A while back, someone on here talked about it working well on batteries. I recall sometime back, @qwertydude indicated that Armor All and 303 were just PDMS, too. I don’t care about UAV for cleaning hard and blown plastic items too much, I just think it works pretty well. What’s the need for something else?
Anyone else use much of the stuff? I never have, personally, but bought a can to try and like it pretty much.
