Frequently Asked Questions


Q. Can I use the Junkyard Juice vinyl cleaner on cloth or leather?
A. No the appropriate cleaner for leather is the Junkyard Juice Leather Clean. Using the vinyl cleaner on cloth seats or other cloth materials may cause the color to run or fade over time with continued use. The leather cleaner can be used on cloth seats as well.

Q. Can the concentrated solution be used without water?
A. We recommend the 4 oz concentrate be diluted in 28 oz of soft, distilled or reverse osmosis water. It is a reaction of the concentrate with the water that gives it the greatest cleaning power to lift the soil and stains.

Q. Can we use the water straight out of our tap?
A. Certainly, the cleaner was developed to be used in any type of water. Soft, distilled or reverse osmosis water has no mineral and is best. Mineral in water works against the natural cleaning power of water and the cleaner.

Q. Can the cleaner be used on tires and rims.
