Title: Avo G101
Post by: stuart mc on September 13, 2012, 11:12:36 pm
avo, I think I read you have been using it last week, how do you find it?

I have some but hate cleaning con roofs with a passion so haven't tried it yet

and if anyone has given it a go that has also used magica a report would be good ;)

the only reason I am asking was an ex member was selling magica one go, and at over rated prices, but the descriptions on both bottles was the same, and I think he was just re branding autosmart G101

one member called Avo had bought some and was trying it, so I was wondering how he got on

It cleaned up alloys perfect with baked on brake dust and cleaned engines perfectly aswell as getting tar off paintwork.
All autosmarts chemicals are excellent.very reasonable priced too.g101 is cheap as chips in 5 litres and 25 litres from the franchisee.

Is it better than Traffic Film Remover on conny roofs and gutters?

Does TFR has caustic in it?

Yes as most people no magica and g101 are the same.. Yes autosmart g101 is very good at cleaning upvc and connie roofs cutting down work and time on the jobs.. It don't seem like it has anymore cleaning power than virosol yet mate but what I have been doing is pre spraying it on and washing off, then on the really ground on marks spraying it neat on the brush.

Maybe this was the key here why it was been rated higher than virosol because it's sprayed neat on to the surface but yes over all it dose an excellent job!!

Sorry for the late reply  ;D been flat out this week

Sure I've seen it for £17 for 5 litres online but eBay seems ok for small bottles too.

I used 200 litres of the stuff on a filthy industrial estate building.

Ratios from 10 to one to neat depending on the soiling - brushed off with wfp.

I was cleaning a school a couple of weeks ago and the windows at the front (south facing) had a really baked on crud all over the frames. My sprayer of Virosol ran dry and needed filling. I went back to the van, grabbed a container and mixed up a fresh batch.
It was only when that one ran dry that I realised that I hadn't used Virosol, but a safety floor cleaned that was the same colour and was also orangey.
It worked just as well as the virolol and I would say that just about any similar detergent would do the job.

From all I read about this magica, it tell me that if he wouldn’t have found this stuff none of us would have been any wiser. So I say good luck to the man.

actually I was tempted to have a bit of fun at his expense on facebook, but no I will leave him to sell away, I don't think he is a bad guy, just don't see why we should pay over the odds really, If I had discovered it, I would have passed the word freely

still think folks should read the coshh sheet though as it looks like powerful stuff

If it was down to him we wouldn't have found this stuff.

Buying a branded product and changing the label to some cartoon name is Arthur Daleyesque and mean, not saintly.

Bosh lives in Hove, Brighton's sedate and posh neighbour.

Or rather he gives his address as Hove but actually, it's Portslade, which is Hove's poor relative.
