Can I use Biodegradable Bike Cleaner as a degreaser?

The normal Concentrate can be used undiluted for this purpose. Soak the chain in the solution for at least 30 minutes, rinse with clean water and repeat if necessary

Can I use a stronger dilution for more stubborn dirt?
Depending on how stubborn the dirt/grease that you want to remove is, the standard concentrate can be used to a dilution of 1:5 for stubborn dirt or undiluted for mild degreasing. Always test dilution on a small area of the material to ensure safety of use

What is the difference between the Super Concentrate, Standard Concentrate and Ready-to-use Foam Spray
The Biodegradable Bike Cleaner Super Concentrate is our Bike Cleaner in the most concentrated form. It is also more economically priced for those that prefer to mix their own bike cleaner in the concentration they prefer. The standard Concentrate is ideal for bike wash bays where mixing of small sachets is too time consuming. It is not as concentrated as the 20ml sachets. The Ready-to-use Foam Spray is conveniently pre-diluted and can be sprayed directly onto your bicycle for general cleaningb
