looking for certain product

Postby judi » Wed Oct 08, 2014 11:55 am

When I was in Canada I purchased a bottle of orange cleaning solution in a spray bottle - Fantabulous Orange. It's the best thing since sliced bread. Alas, I cannot find any information about it when I Google it. I would love to order some but it seems to be a mystery product. Any Canadians out there know this product? i apologize for the GIANT photo...

In the small print on the back label, can you find the name of the manufacturer? I was able to find that Canadian Tire carries the Fantabulous Glass Cleaner and their degreaser - so you might be able to contact one of their locations to find out more, also.

There is no label information about the manufacturer, or a phone number for questions, or any other info. I think it's not the same company as the Fantabulous glass cleaner - the font is different, and I can't find any info online. Looks like they used the Fantabulous label but put Orange with it. Mysterious! My son and I have been searching online with no luck. Now it's become a personal challenge!

I think you're right - you'll need the Canadians - or call a Canada Tire store and see if they can help. They don't have the same labeling requirements in Canada as we do - but I couldn't find the Orange you have online, either.

The back label. I just wish I could find this stuff. It removes bugs from the windshield better than anything I've ever tried. Even big Alaska bugs!

Good for you. I mentioned they sell the degreaser, but never clicked to look at it. Duh!

Genius Mitch! Maybe the bottle I got was an older label. When I get somewhere that I'm going to stay for a while I'll order it. Thanks!

Judi, I"ve also used a product from ZEP called Big Orange that worked in the same fashion. I tried to google it to find you a link but I can't find any of their products with that name, just orange cleaner or citrus degreaser. It may be that they have changed the name since I last bought it years ago (I split a gallon of it with my sil and still have some left!)

Nope that's not the same stuff as I used. What I have is clear like what Judi's looking for. But I can't find it under the name I used to know it by so maybe they don't make it anymore.

Maybe I'll do a test of a few orange cleaning solutions, and find the best one. But for me to use it it must be biodegradable, etc.

I've seen an orange cleaner in Dollar General stores. Don't know if its biodegradable but you might check it out.

Can you get a chemical shipped from Canada to here?

I think I could have it shipped to the US but I can't find it online. After searching for several days, I guess I have to head to Canada!
