- Ivory soap also won't take your flesh off. If you think that Simple Green is good, you ought to try the Castrol Heave Duty cleaner (the purple stuff) Absolutely amazing stuff ... Way better than the

- Yes, but I've seen it take paint off. If that's your goal, that's okay, but if you are degreasing a painted engine, I'd stick with Simple Green. Gordon Glasgow Renton, WA http://www.gordon-glasgow.or

- The big difference, according to my nose, is that the purple stuff has ammonia in it. Ammonia will take latex paint right off (I use a dilute solution as a stripper for same) but usually doesn't both

- "natural" and "safe" are such subjective words, don't you think? The Castol seems safe enough for me and it says its biodegradable. I have never had a problem using on painted surfaces and I use it r

- I've never been too worried about the 'naturalness' of degreasers. I mean really, if I get half a pound of ancient grease/oil/tar/goo to come off my car and onto the ground with 1 ounce of purple stu

- I completely agree. It's a bottle of degreaser. The words Biodegradable and All Natural were invented for suburbanite tree-huggers who drive huge SUV's only in the city, but like to use All Natural

- What you're likely to be removing is a combination of oil and dirt. Dirt is by definition natural, though I don't know about biodegradable. Oil is also natural - they pump it right out of the ground
