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.

Citrus...Orange-ish can is what Andreas the Clean uses...

I have a case of it and am still waiting on the time to do a cleaning...

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.

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.
