Im on a limited budget but want parts of my car degreased of oily bits. I just wondered if anyone has recomendations of which products to get.

I need products to do the following:

De-greasing the bonnet catch
De-greasing between the doors
Best wheel cleaner
Engine cleaner

Also, im not sure on what the different spray dodo juices do like red mist ect. would be helpful if someone could explain in simple terms.

cheers.

Meguiars all purpose cleaner will do jobs 1,2 and 4 so will Autosmart G101
Wheels people tend to favour bilberry wheel cleaner however i reccomend Autosmart smart wheels/Ali Shine

As for what products do have a look on www.cleanyourcar.co.uk most products describe what they do

In addition, Dodo Juice Red Mist is a spray sealant. It's classed as a Quick Detailer, but is best used after polishing paint.

Tbh Megs APC will do all of them jobs....its not the best for cleaning wheels but still does a good job.
