Chevron 325 solvent is good and has stabilizers that keep it from getting that oxidized smell, is recyclable where many of the water based cleaners are not. The water based potassium hydroxide cleaners eat aluminum and magnesium. And,,, some of the "orange" based cleaners my shop looked at a few years ago at had methly chloride in them! (a common active ingredient in paint stripper, and a bitch to recycle)
Sodium Hydroxide is a caustic alkalai and is commonly used for paint strippers (peel away). Basically- think of concentrated lye. BTW, strong concentrations are also great at dissolving flesh and fingernails. Strong lye concentrations were also used to pulp wood to make paper.As a rule- acids attack metals and alkalai attack biological matl
I like 'Awesome' generic cleaner available in dollar stores for about a buck per quart or less. Its meant to be diluted, but at the price I use it full strength. The name is appropriate. Seems just effective as S100. Doesnt seem to harm any sensitive surfaces. If I'm not mistaken, its also biodegradeable...
