When you think bout it however, the dawn degreaser is SPECIFICALY made for removing grease. Simple Green is an All Purpose Cleaner, that has a much more gentle formula so it can be used on more surfaces.
Sorry to be difficult, but I'm not sure your assumption is correct that soft substances are easier to clean than hard substances. Consider: if you drew with an indelible marker on a piece of steel and on a piece of wood, which would be easier to clean? In my world it's the non-porous, harder substance because the stain does not sink in below the surface. When you clean a non-porous substance, you are just wiping off ink adhering to the surface. The softer, porous substance absorbs the stain and you have a much harder time cleaning the stain because it is as much below the surface as on it.
Nice test. Thanks for posting it! Simple Green really is safer than virtually all other degreasers for both humans and the environment (and even surfaces when compared to lye based decreases like purple power and super clean) so I use it whenever it's suitable but I agree that it's a mid tier degreaser. Here's my hierarchy of degreasers, from most effective but least used for various cleaning (not for stones): #1 Super Clean. SDS says it's a skin, eye, and inhalation irritant. OSHA class 2 hazard. Damages aluminum, and with prolonged contact can damage paint and glass. #2 Spray Nine. SDS says it's not an OSHA hazard, but may be an eye, skin and inhalation irritant. Has a gross perfume scent. #3 Simple Green. Works great on dirt, but not as good on grease as the others. Very safe. Not an irritant. Not an OSHA hazard. Biodegrades in 56 days. Safe for aluminum (unless it's left in crevices where it's not rinsed away), and paint when dilluted 1:16. This Dawn degreaser appears safer than Super Clean. After watching this, I wonder if it could replace it for me. WD-40 also has a fairly new degreaser that's as safe as Simple Green but I haven't used it. I would like to compare them.
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 Thanks for posting this comparison. WD-40, like using mineral oil, works as a degreaser by easily rapidly breaking apart and diluting the grease. They work phenomenally well as a step one safe degreaser, finished by any good simple detergent & water based soap as step two. Dawn would work great for step two as well. WD-40 and mineral oil are not the ideal thing to use for everything, but for many degreasing jobs, they are, as they work faster and safer than a lot of alternatives.
@@larryseibold4287 they were saying that the company WD40 makes a degreaser, they weren’t suggesting to use their flagship product (what we all think of when we hear “WD-40”, which is a mix of light mineral oil, light petroleum distillate/solvent or naphtha, and the special water resistant chemical)
This is an interesting comparison. I guess the degreaser works better as a degreaser. and the all-purpose cleaner is really a jack of all trades and a master of none. But I still suggest Simple Green for cleaning bicycles and and small to medium jobs around the house.
Should have put the simple green tile into the dawn after showing the difference just to see if the dawn would take the rest of the dirt off the simple soaked tile.
The beauty of the green is it is just really passive. I think the way it works is it is a non polar fluid like oil so they are compatible with each other and one of the actives breaks down the oil on a molecular level where it precipitates to the bottom. It's just slower... And you can keep using the same contaoner of it until it damn near looks like motor oil and it keeps going all the same. I have a Tupperware I threw three filthy washitas in like a week ago sealed it and just put it away till I felt like dealing with that. I'll tape it when I pull them for a check. I just like the passive nature of the method of action and no heat. This dawn I could see being really useful on a stone I would never want to soak like a japanese natural that got cross contaminated (they are a nuisance and the way you usually have to strip oil from a jnat is sealing it packed in salt in an airtight container for a long span). That's miserable. I have considered brake cleaner in the past on bad things like really soaked hindostans but never tried it.
I have really thought off and on for several days about this comment. And I don't know any other thing to say, other than absolutely none of what you said makes any sense in any way that I can think of. Alot of comments including yours through my videos is why I made this proof video.
By the way! Haha, dawn and water kills bugs better than just about anything if youre having fly issues. I got 143 yellow jackets last weekend with 1 pint water and 2 tbsp water spray. Just thought it was ironic since I use that and you're having issues with flies in the video. But thanks for the information, these types of videos are a huge help.
put 3 Washita stones in a boiling 50/50 mix of simple green and water. The stones still had a bunch of crud on them after that, bought some of that dawn degreaser, sprayed some on the stones and gunk just started to flow off. There was a really old cut of butterscotch Washita in there that it looked like a silicon carbide stone. I spray that dawn on it and I reveal this semi-translucent butterscotch stone.
I would of put my money on the Dawn degreaser anytime. It goes after the grease and grime very quick and thorough. I do use the Simple Green for general cleaning around the house. Nice video
To make this test more fair, the same stone should have been used for both of them. Like if it didn't work in simple green, place the same stone half way into the dawn and see if it cleans then. Because while it is the same material, the dirt, how porous it is etc might make the difference. That said, simple green doesn't clean a whole lot, and its actually used to strip paint in the vice collector world. It takes a week or so but all paint is wrinkled and ready for removal.
You know I've been thinking about this video, and concluded I don't think this comparison is quite right after all because we're comparing a heavy duty degreaser to a regular one. To make this fair, I think we need to compare heavy duty with heavy duty. Try with Simple Green Pro HD (HD standing for Heavy Duty) against Dawn Heavy Duty and see which one comes on top from that. Simple green has a different makeup and composition than Pro HD and they're both purple as well by the way.
@@cellsheet no I will not do a video like that and I will tell you why because everybody on this fucking channel was harping and harping and harping about old simple greens better and this and that so here's what you got their method versus mine.
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 I know you probably knew. It would be great if you demonstrated that by dipping the stone you dipped in the Simple Green into the Dawn solution. I appreciate your demo.
Yeah Dawn wins. For cleaning the house I recommend Pinesol and other diluted cleaners like that. It is cheap and smells great, and is also pretty gentle on furniture. How do you think dish soap and water would work for removing metal out of the stones? I usually use that and a scrub brush like the one you used in the video. I am just looking to remove the metal that comes from regularly using the stones.
That's all I do when I'm done. But most of the metal stays out of the finer stones when using soap and water. And every once in awhile I still degrease mine. Just to get all that crap out of them.
The Dawn product say heavy duty degreaser. You can also get a HD degreaser from SG. Would be interesting to see how much the hot water has to do with it. Did you tried 50% SG with 50% hot water?
I just used sg for first time today and was like this is trash it doesn't do anything...it is like spraying water 🤔 and I had to use wd40 and palmolive to finish the work. Then I was like maybe it is just me am I doing something wrong🤔. So then I googled "simple green doesn't work" and this video came up 😅
Dawn is the best for grease and oil period. Simple Green is a great all round cleaner that is great for its price point. I like them both for applications that suits them. Simple Green makes a great interior detailed for vehicles that’s cheap as dirt.
Dawn dish soap ( the blue stuff ) and simple green 50/50 mix for the best degreaser you've ever used... Full concentrate just spray it on and it will stick. Let it bite in, scrub rinse repeat... Hot water works best... It won't kill cast aluminum... The dawn is thick, it gives the stick you need for the simple green to bite in and do it's work... Yes I've used purple power and super clean but I prefer my lungs and not melting aluminum... As for spray nine it's amazing but only diluted to clean interiors, I'm not a fan of how it can stain plastics at full strength, it's strong enough to have a bleaching affect on plastics and it has a very strong odor.... It cleans people grime awesome... Coffee, skin grime, blood, it disinfects... I use dawn dish soap to clean cars and for water sanding... Diluted dawn ( a tablespoon ) in a 5 gal bucket of hot water with a micro fiber is perfect for preliminary interior detail wipe down... I love Dawn it's an awesome product, the combination of it with simple green make for a potent sticky degreaser... Just remember no matter how good the degreaser you use, it has nothing on a hotsy...
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 well I gotta try this dawn stuff, always used the dish soap with sweet results, I've never seen this degreaser version of dawn...
I think Simple Green doesn’t work at all. Dawn is just the best at cleaning everything. Do you have any recommendations on getting hard water deposits from shower glass doors ? Thank you
Idk if your still looking for tips but spray and respray straight vinegar spray on the glass and let it set for awhile then use a non scratch pad with barkeep. It may take a few rounds but the vinegar will eventually work. I soak my fixtures in it for a few hours then use a nylon brush to just knock off calcium buildup.
hey there , its not a fair competition to be honest , no all purpose cleaner will ever come close to a degreaser , in a new video try dawn degreaser vs simple green degreaser , yes simple green does have a degreaser version , just my 2cents
This is a very fair comparison. If you would have been watching my channel from the beginning, you would understand. I've used purple power for years in my method shown here. And it works fantastic. But the "know it all's" kept saying that simple green was better blah blah you know how people are. And there is this huge fad on simple green for this and sharpening. So here I proved them wrong. I knew what the results were gonna be from the start. I just wanted to put proof out there.

You should have used the same stones. My husband who has been a butcher his entire life says the Dawn side should’ve been easier to clean than the Simple Green stone. Not an exact test. Try again dude and be exact.
How about you keep your dumbass fucking comments to yourself I explained everything in this video to a t. I don't give a flying fuck about what your husband does or says.
I need to grab a bottle of that stuff. See how it compares to my home-made degreaser solution. No idea where simple green became the proverbial holy water for everything.
Never tried either but I bet dawn wins it. I normally use purple power or blue wolf. If u ever get the chance try them and see what u think. Thanks for the time you spent on the test for us

@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 your welcome. Yeah it's a wear plate they put in a coal load out (coal chute) instead of the metal getting wore out from coal being dumped in it they line the walls of the load out with ceramic squares and just replace the ceramic as it breaks and wears down.
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 the Alkaline cleaner (degreaser) is going to clean better. But when you’re cleaning a surface such as rubber you would use simple green over the degreaser for that reason.
I bet someone says its the hot water. This is my engineer mind. 2-3" of stone. 1) Hot tap water (control) 2) straight simple green 3) straight dawn degreaser. (Or both diluted with same hot water). If you could 2.5" of the same 8" stone. Yep I'm that guy, sorry.🤔
Yep they will. And that's fine. Because so many of these people say no no simple green or works better. So here is the proof. My method against theirs.
@@themikeroberts but heat will make stone pores open to release oil. (Heat expansion, cold contracts). All the more reason Simple Green isn't as good for cleaning a stone. Got to clean the inside & the outside.
What's up with you guys and weird simple green stats or "facts" if that's what you wanna call it... Please post a link on where it says this. And even if it does that's horse shit. Simple green does not. In any way hold a candle to degreaser.
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531I've had good luck as lubricant on stones plus keeps them clean probably similar to your dawn water mix. Not related but anyway, been experimenting with Tap magic cutting fluid. I keeps diamond and Arkansas from clogging. Especially on diamond sharpening carbide tools.
Sorry but this is not a good comparison. Simple Green All Purpose is a gentle degreaser. Its designed to be gentle on the surface you are trying to clean. Compare Dawn Degreaser with Simple Green® Pro HD Heavy-Duty Cleaner. You will have a similar result. Also simple Green all purpose has a safer choice certification so it is less harmful to you. But yes Dawn would win when comparing to simple green all purpose. But SImple Green Pro HD Heavy Duty will perform similar to Dawn Degreaser. The heavy degreaser is not good to use on delicate surface so you would use a gentle cleaner. Like SImple green all purpose
This is a excellent comparison. Everyone kept coming on my channel and throughout the community saying simple green will degrease stones. And my degreaser trick don't work. This was the first time using the dawn type. I usually use purple power. But since I use Dawn and water to sharpen I thought I'd try this stuff. And sorry... But you are sadly mistaken about the simple green crap. It does not work the same. Maybe if you watch some of my other 200 videos you'll understand.

@@LouieRgz Congratulations! Would you like you're cookie in oatmeal or chocolate chip?
Good one! Thank you!
For the flies mix fish emulsion and "Spectracide"Triazicide Insect killer" It will kill not jest just flies
I bet someone says its the hot water. This is my engineer mind. 2-3" of stone. 1) Hot tap water (control) 2) straight simple green 3) straight dawn degreaser. (Or both diluted with same hot water). If you could 2.5" of the same 8" stone. Yep I'm that guy, sorry.🤔
Yep they will. And that's fine. Because so many of these people say no no simple green or works better. So here is the proof. My method against theirs.
Simple Green actually says heating above 105° will dimish cleaning ability.
@@themikeroberts but heat will make stone pores open to release oil. (Heat expansion, cold contracts). All the more reason Simple Green isn't as good for cleaning a stone. Got to clean the inside & the outside.
What's up with you guys and weird simple green stats or "facts" if that's what you wanna call it...
Please post a link on where it says this. And even if it does that's horse shit.
Simple green does not. In any way hold a candle to degreaser.
Jesus this is like teaching a donkey to act right.
I love my Dawn Degreaser!
Me too
Dawn the way to go....
Ever tried L.A'S Totally Awesome cleaner? Piss yellow in color, $1 for 32oz at the Dollar Tree dollar store.
I've used it in the house.
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531I've had good luck as lubricant on stones plus keeps them clean probably similar to your dawn water mix. Not related but anyway, been experimenting with Tap magic cutting fluid. I keeps diamond and Arkansas from clogging. Especially on diamond sharpening carbide tools.
Anything at all. Anything oil based clogs stones.
multi purpose cleaner vs degreaser? apple vs orange...
As I have said before smartass watch a few videos. Everyone thinks they know everything.
Hot water
What?
Simple green working went you rinse in water. Not alone.
I really wish some of y'all would learn how to communicate. That makes no sense
Shit not done.... not only flies but 260 other insects. You can purchase at home depot or Lowe's
Sorry but this is not a good comparison. Simple Green All Purpose is a gentle degreaser. Its designed to be gentle on the surface you are trying to clean.
Compare Dawn Degreaser with Simple Green® Pro HD Heavy-Duty Cleaner. You will have a similar result. Also simple Green all purpose has a safer choice certification so it is less harmful to you. But yes Dawn would win when comparing to simple green all purpose. But SImple Green Pro HD Heavy Duty will perform similar to Dawn Degreaser. The heavy degreaser is not good to use on delicate surface so you would use a gentle cleaner. Like SImple green all purpose
This is a excellent comparison.
Everyone kept coming on my channel and throughout the community saying simple green will degrease stones. And my degreaser trick don't work. This was the first time using the dawn type. I usually use purple power. But since I use Dawn and water to sharpen I thought I'd try this stuff. And sorry... But you are sadly mistaken about the simple green crap. It does not work the same. Maybe if you watch some of my other 200 videos you'll understand.
Dawn degreaser : 1
Simple green : 0
break it in half or cut it into........ain't that the same?
In two. Learn to spell
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 hahahahahahahaha. i'm usually the one correcting spelling mistakes. people get so pissed. not sure why i said into.....
Can arkansas stones sharpen s30v steels?
Absolutely!
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 Where do Arkansas Stones become less than ideal?
@@G11354 the only steel that has ever give me a issue was spydercos maxamet
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 Do you recommend any other stones to compliment the Arks such as aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, diamond and son?
I use diamond, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, ceramics etc. But my finishers are always Arkansas
Guys just go to Autozone get you a big jug of purple power
I've used purple power in the past, and have made videos on it. But this stuff works much better.
Guess you're not gonna respond 👍
@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 I just used purple power but it’s pretty hard to get my hand on some of that dawn since everyone wants to use it now for their kitchens
It's for sale everywhere lol I still use it. Just putting something new out there.
So Dawn is better.. sorry those who have stock in simple green... Used simple green a lot and it never impressed me as the end all be all of anything.
Simple green is a joke
Do you have acid reflux disease?

@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 As do I. I recognized the raspy voice and persistent throat clearing.

Man's keeping stats now! Lol
👍
it's stupid the sponge for the dawn was less dirty than the simple green not a good test
It's a excellent fucking test.
Have you been following my channel?
If so you'd understand. And know that I've proved that simple green is shit.
And if I may ask, what sponge are you talking about?
🤔
yup all I see is the one going into simple green is basectly almost black and the one in dawn white with some black spots.
and obviously am talking about this clip. can't you tell the message in this clip.
Ok dumb ass, they aren't sponges!
Those are pocket sharpening stones. You didn't watch the video or pay attention at all. Or both.
