Make your own Muc-off?

Recently I was asking about making your own chain lube. Tried a recipe, worked GREAT. Thanks!

A MTB buddy was asking about an alterative to Muc-Off. Anyone have any suggestions?

Water, Dawn blue, and a splash of Simple Green?

ETA, might not be the best for anything painted, but probably safe for powder coat.

You could probably manufacture the plastic handles fairly easy with a 3D printer but I’m not sure how your source the bristles…good brushes though.

The pink sauce that folks like to use to clean their muddy MTBs.

That stuff doesn’t work any better than soap water or less dirty use a rinseless wash IME.
