I like to detail my 1:1 vehicles so I have an abundance of detailing products. I've found that a rinseless wash product to be more than adequate cleaner. Of course it needs the help of a brush and or rags. For a stronger cleaner I use an APC (all purpose cleaner).
I know Simple Green is always mentioned to use with caution around aluminum among detailers. Have you guys noticed any issues with it on the aluminum bits? I'm sure it's only dangerous with some of their products and at full strength which is likely a waste to use that way anyway. Not that making some M2C bits a little dull is going to matter in this crowd. I doubt most of you are buying them for a shelf queen anyway.
The products no doubt are overkill for RCs but I've always got them on hand:
Brush: Detail factory boars hair, not their other one that is too soft and more intended for real auto paint.
Rinseless Wash: Wolfgang Uber, Optimum No Rinse. There are many use a "detail spray" dilution.
APC: Optimum Power Clean diluted 3:1
