Assuming you've been following your own thread on DW, then you'll know what I'm about to advocate......

From what I understand about AS Actimousse, it is a caustic TFR, which will in all likelihood, compromise your LSP, as it was designed for the trade, where time=money - hence why more aggressive chemicals are generally used.

As for VP pH Neutral, I've played with it a few times, and whilst not being able (at the time) to get a more accurate dosage than the oft quoted 1" rule of thumb, I was unimpressed.

BH Auto-foam has never failed to deliver results, even at less than the 4-5% PIR required for properly ingrained dirt.
But then this should come as no surprise since they test their products to industry standard testing procedures.

All I can suggest, is for you to get the Auto-foam, and if less than entirely happy with its performance, contact BH and they'll stand over their promise of refunding the cost if that should be the case.
I highly suspect, you'll not be making that phone call to them, but only you can be sure of that, after having tried it for yourself.

I have ordered BH Autofoam wink

From spending a good 2 - 3 hours reading everything there is written about it on DW, I doubt I will be disappointed wink

( Your post pretty much summed up everything I wanted to know perfectly, fk knows what Avanti was banging on about )
