By the way, it is not classified as a hazardous product.
Thanks for checking with them. I called them this morning and got some
pricing. The smallest quantity is still the 5 gallon pail. It is $93.10. Then
to ship to California the shipping cost is $150-200. It must be shipped on
a pallet by a common carrier. So basically $300 for a 5 gallon pail of cleaning
solution. Not practical.

The pH for AT30 is 12.75; AT34 is less than 1; Wurth is 2.5.

Attached are material data sheets for each.

Each product class has its own use / function.

I've had good luck with Brown Royal. I'm surprised actually nobody's mentioned it yet.

Start with soap + water.

Then use a pH neutral cleaner.

Then use a more aggressive cleaner if needed.
