ubetit- what are your dilution ratios? and do you use distilled water?
(for your z8 and your apc)

Also, what APC do you like to use? I've been using the Meguiar's APC for a while now and I like it very much. Typically, I use it at 4:1 for exterior cleaning and 11:1 for interior cleaning.

I cut my Z8 in half with distilled. One bottle makes two

Mikey and wanabe I use Meguiars APC . I dilute it to different ratios. Engine bays are 3:1. Interior is 10:1

i have never diluted my z8, but now just gotta try it!
apc diluted does work well...
