It might work in some cases. It did not work in mine. I tried it with under a half tank of gas and drove on the highway until it was was on empty. No change.

So sorry for the late response!! Yes this did work!! She did not have any further issues reference the Catalytic converter after this. BUT because the cats were clogged/dirty to the point it threw codes I told her to do this process once every 3 months to ensure they stay clean!

Yes Sir! I'll have an Update Video Next Week but the Vehicle has not thrown any codes since the Treatment and has noticeably more power.

Hey thanks for watching!! I did this treatment a total of 3 times over 6 weeks (once every 2 weeks) and the codes stopped coming up! She immediately had noticeable and improved driving and idling/acceleration and eventually better mpg!! However this only last 6 months until the owner got into a car wreck totalling out the vehicle!! But can't fault the paint thinner for that ha. Hope that helps and Happy Wrenching!

Why not use soap or dishwasher liquid?

Hey thanks for watching! You actually can use soap/dish detergent! But that would ential unbolting and removing the Catalytic Converters...and if you're going to do that you might as well just replace them!! The issue is the removal is often ti.ea difficult and hard to do for the average at home mechanic...bolts rust or are hard to get to. This method cleans them while staying attached! By sending a cleaner thru the gas to be burned up in the engine.

Hey Thanks for Watching! Yes it Did! It Cleared Out the Catalytic Converters and Made the Car Deige Noticeably Better! The Codes, After Being Reset, Never Came Back for That Issue!
