Default Xenit - foam or citrus?

With all the talk of Xenit it's time to give it a go...but Stoner sells two grime cleaners: Xenit Foaming Cleaner (a blue can) and Xenit Citrus Cleaner and Remover - which one is the one that everyone is raving about?

I haven't come across this stuff in Canada. Does someone carry it? I'll be a little choked if it is available because I just spent 3 hours scrubbing my tranny with a toothbrush and lacquer thinner.

Thanks

I found a place that you can order it online in Canada:

http://www.thedetailingshop.com/en/s...er_/index.html

Haven't purchased anything from them yet so can't say I know how their customer service is. Price is a little more than the States, but I believe there are shipping restrictions from the U.S. to here for Xenit.

Some say ... that Andreas the Clean was one of the lesser known Vikings of a bygone age, who, while obscure to most of the population, was nevertheless the object of some veneration among certain members of his clan. History does not record his prowess in battle, but it is said that, when his ship was returned to the seas after the long winter months, the people were astonished at the high sheen to which even the bottom-most hull planks had been polished.

Citrus and there are no sellers on file for Canada yet. You can order directly but not sure how all the taxes/duties work out.
