Scrubbing Bubbles wins.

I just washed the belly of my 360 this weekend for the first time in ~75hrs.  Ive been using XTreme Clean that I bought at OshKosh.   It works OK.  Ive used Simple Green.  It doesnt work any better that the Turtle Wax car soap I use on the rest of the plane.  The Scrubbing Bubbles took 90% of the soot off the belly on the first pass with a paper towel.  I was amazed. The thick stuff near the pipes took 3-4 applications but I hadn't cleaned that completely off in at least 150hrs.

For the crud: After spraying on Scrubbing Bubbles and wiping it off with a towel (a 15 minute job, not hours), throw the wipe away as it is now toxic.

 

Occasionally one wants to "clean" the paint, make bug removal easy and give the surface a freaking slick look that is more aerodynamically effective.  Well, don't bother wet washing it (I never washed my bird), use Dri-Wash. <<< http://www.driwashsolutions.com/ >>> Spray it on, wipe it around, wait for the haze to form and wipe it off with a clean soft terry cloth towel.  Any paint colors will be deepened.  Toss a towel down a wing and watch it slide over the slick surface.  Bugs can be removed by a re-application to  the wing leading edges or just use a water moistened cloth.  Works on the prop also.  Works on the windshield too.

 

Laziness is a virtue resulting in efficiency.

I attended one of the LoPresti Saturday charity breakfasts and part of that deal is to show what the company is doing.  They demonstrated that product on a car and gave a numerical breakdown of the benefits.  I did not buy any but I did clean the bugs off the leading edge of the Legacy.
