Many acid rinses are just slightly acidic.

I know Hugh's home brand is pH 1. Don't like the orange colour though.

We use Dupont's neutralizer/conditioner. Its very effective against soapy residues, thats what I'm concerned about more than anything.

I definitely don't define 1 as slightly acidic.

Hugh's being 1 is very unusual IMO.

We use acid rinses all the time to neutralize spotters and find the orange colour a problem when doing so.
