Simple Green All Purpose Cleaner — 

Short and to the point...this stuff works.  Like many in my age bracket, I forget things.  I recently asked a fellow bicyclist how he kept his older ride so clean looking.  "Simple Green", he replied.  DUH!  How could I forget?  I used this years ago while doing maintenence to all 3 cars in the family. 

I should've taken 'before & after' pictures, but all I have is the 'after' picture of a Schwinn World Sport I recently cleaned up & sold on craigslist.  The bike was basically in good shape.  It needed some minor adjustments & new brake shoes.  Before it was full of old dirt & grease.  After it was clean & shiny.  I paid $50 for this bike, cleaned, adjusted, and replaced the brake shoes...then sold it for $100 a few days later.  After the roughly $18 in new brake shoes & a bottle of Simple Green, I made about $32.00.  Easy money for an old retired fart like me.
