...I know this thread has been going on longer than
I've been reading it, but I find the above a little
hard to swallow.
I've sprayed enough of both to see off a few species
of spotted owl, and they don't work the same at all, or
even smell the same.
As has been mentioned before, brake cleaner smells
horrible and leaves the surface dry and greaseless, carb
cleaner smells more or less familiar and leaves the
surface slightly oiled.
This might only be with the brands I use, but still
that's enough to question the above statement.
