How cheap is
it? How does it compare to Coke, in particular? Coke has
sugar and caffiene mixed in, but also has a good deal of phosophoric
acid in it. (I'm assuming, of course, plenty of water rinse
afterwards.)
Myth Busters on TV did an episode about the myths of Coke. I was
surprised to see that it really DID clean battery terminals in a car
better than water. It also appeared to do a better job of cleaning
chrome than the chrome polish they tested against (they didn't say what
the brand was they tried).
However, it didn't appear to do anything for degreasing an engine, or
disolving meat or teeth :-)
