They banned the use of Simple Green for use on aircraft while I was in the navy. It worked awsome for getting the surfaces clean, it made that paint job look almost new! The drawback was that over a relatively short time span the Simple Green caused a form of hydrogen embrittlement on the aluminum, and caused some pretty serious cracks in the skin.I keep reading here and there that Simple Green is bad for aluminum. Is that an urban legend? I did see alloy parts getting a peeled look in a Beretta 92 INOX and in a 10/22 receiver.
No more Simple Green on aircraft.....
