Don't let your wife find it because it will disappear into the kitchen/bathroom. It works great on tile, but don't use on wood floors (leaves a film that's hard to remove. Ron, sorry for dragging up an old quote. I am curious about the film left behind on wood. One of the things I like about OPC is how easy it is to remove, what is it about wood where something is left behind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I used Power Clean on a new laminate wood floor and it left a film that took 3 passes with a wet towel to remove. When I mentioned it to Dr G, he said Power Clean was not the right product for wood due to the residue (no other explanation), but suggested ONR or Opti-Clean. OC is my go-to for most surfaces now because it cleans well with no side issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Soap Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Laminated floors usually don't like anything else than water (or need!) or special laminated floor cleaners, almost all others leave a film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Soap Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Sorry, have to "spam" this also here for everyone to see, so I tried using T.A.R. on my car with now rough sides thanks to "salt" (or whatever it is in Finland). Result was excellent! Did this as a test between 2 products: Washed both front doors with ONR (new formula) using the Big Red Sponge and dryed the panels. Sprayed T.A.R. on one of the doors and Power Clean (1:3) on the other door (not at the same time). Let dwell for 2 minutes and agitated gently with a microfiber towel (separate towels for each product). The T.A.R. towel was much dirtier than the Opti Clean. Washed again (2 times) with ONR and the Big Red Sponge and dryed the panel. Did only one test-side at a time e.g. one product at a time, after each other. The Opti Clean side still felt rough but the T.A.R. side was smooth like a babys bottom! Added Opti-Clean on top. Question: Could there be a danger with the T.A.R. or Opti Clean if one couldn't get everything cleaned off using BRS and ONR? Did wash inside the doors also with just ONR. @Ron@Optimum Same thing written also in this other thread, sorry, too happy!

No Soap Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Meant to say Power Clean instead of Opti Clean.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
