Description
ADBL APC Typhoon is a highly concentrated all-purpose cleaner developed for demanding cleaning jobs across vehicle interiors and exteriors. Designed as the successor to ADBL APC Pro, its powerful alkaline formula tackles stubborn dirt, grease and organic contamination while allowing the cleaning strength to be adjusted through dilution.
Suitable for professional detailers and experienced enthusiasts, APC Typhoon can be used across a wide range of compatible surfaces, including plastics, rubber, textiles, engine bays and other heavily contaminated areas. Its concentrated formulation makes it particularly useful when one adaptable cleaner is required for everything from routine cleaning to more intensive detailing work.

How to use
Shake the product before use.
Dilute ADBL APC Typhoon with water according to the surface being cleaned and the level of contamination.
For lighter contamination, use a weaker working solution. Increase the concentration where stronger cleaning performance is required.
Apply the prepared solution to the surface or suitable cleaning accessory.
Agitate where necessary using an appropriate brush, microfibre or other detailing tool.
Do not allow the product to dry on the cleaned surface.
Remove the dissolved contamination and remaining cleaning solution thoroughly.
When working on exterior surfaces, rinse thoroughly with water.
For interior applications, remove product residue appropriately using a clean damp microfibre or extraction method suitable for the material.
Always test the prepared solution on an inconspicuous area before first use, particularly when working with sensitive materials.
Avoid working on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight.

Dilution and application guidance
Prepare the solution: Dilute ADBL APC Typhoon between 1:5 and 1:25 according to the contamination level and the material being cleaned. Use a weaker solution for lighter contamination and increase concentration when additional cleaning power is required.
Tornador application: When using a compatible Tornador-style cleaning tool, ADBL recommends a dilution between 1:10 and 1:20. Follow the equipment manufacturer’s operating instructions and use suitable personal protective equipment.
Apply and agitate: Apply the diluted solution to the surface and work it into the contamination using a suitable detailing brush, sponge or cleaning brush. Use gentle agitation on delicate materials.
Remove contamination: Wipe away loosened dirt using a damp microfibre cloth, rinse thoroughly with water or use an appropriate extraction-rinsing method for fabric upholstery.
Neutralise residues: ADBL specifically requires the product to be neutralised with water after use. Do not leave concentrated cleaning residues on treated materials.
Repeat if necessary: For stubborn contamination, repeat the cleaning process using an appropriate dilution rather than allowing the product to remain on the surface indefinitely.
Important precautions: Always test an inconspicuous area before use, particularly on sensitive or unfamiliar materials. Avoid allowing the cleaning solution to dry on the surface. Follow the product label and safety data sheet for handling and material restrictions.
