Hence my post.
Apparently the AOPA (pilots association) and certain military maintenance departments have discouraged / banned it as well.
BTW - "Purple Power" has the same problem.

I've got nothing against either product. Anybody's free to use what they like.
But there are such a huge number of products specifically designed for cleaning aluminum. For me: known corrosive=bad idea.

terpsred - Moe or the guys on the detailing forum have tons of experience with degreasers. Way more than me. They're great about sharing tips.
Yeah. I was simply sharing that even the product's website gives some uhh, guidance in how to safely use it on aluminum. Not exactly a warning, but some guidelines. ie, use on small sections at a time, & rinse like crazy. I think there are better products for aluminum cleaning.
