Gotta agree. Belly Soap is the best I’ve ever used, by far. I haven’t tried GOJO yet, but I prefer spray on cleaners.

Simple green in a pump up weed sprayer (there's a version of it that is supposed to be less corrosive for aluminum)

Make darn sure what ever you use is not corrosive!

The Simple Green for aviation spray on has worked good for me. After I clean the belly with the Simple Green I go over it again with a Mild non corrosive cleaner to clean off any left over residue from the Simple Green cleaner, for this I use SprayWay glass cleaner, it works great. The SprayWay is also great for bugs and dirt on the rest of the airplane.

Thanks fellas. I might just have a belly cleaner showdown to see what works best.

For the crud, I like good old fashioned WD-40. That'll cut through old sticky 5606 even.

I always thought Go Jo hand soap was lanolin based, maybe I was wrong.

I've never used gas or Belly Soap, however I can't imagine anything working better than Go-Jo. It takes about 15 minutes to paint the stuff on the belly of the plane, the wheels, torque links, brakes, etc, with a big paint brush. Wait 10 minutes and hose it off with a garden sprayer or just wipe it. So quick and simple. Make sure to use the white stuff with no pumice.

Where do you find GOJO without the pumice?

I use my wife on a creeper, while I drink beer and smoke cigars. This has worked well for me for many years, I don't know what she uses.
Cheers.

Is GoJo corrosive? Anyone know? What is in it?

Kurt

Looks like petroleum distillates and limonen what ever that is, probably the smell stuff.

Mineral spirts, detergent, and gel. That’s the original formula.

They’ve got the Punic variety-self explanatory.

They added a citrus variety. I’d stay away from that.

So is without pumice “ Crème Style “?

That it, works awesome!

Some NAPA Auto Parts stores have it.

I have never used a hand cleaner to clean a belly always used varsol when I owned a 150-150. If you like Go-JO for the job try JOES hand cleaner as it’s does a better job cleaning hands than GoJo.
