    Hello,

    I want to wash my Prius gen 3 catalytic converter . I searched some video in YouTube , catawash can do a good job. But I can’t find it in the UK.

    But I can find wynns DPF cleaner. I don’t sure I can use it for Prius catalytic converter. Do anyone can give me some suggestion?

    There's plenty of cat soak recipes out there... No need to buy a product specifically for it, simply research all the recipes people reccomend and then mix up the one you think will work best.

    Hello
    Thank you for your help.

    I google it. And the people mix 50% water and 50% toilet cleaner to clean Prius 3 catalytic converter . I will try it.

    but I saw some people used wynns DPC cleaner. I guess DPC should like CAT. It should work too. Am I correct?

    Make sure you know all the recipes out there before trying any one specific one. Also don't invent your own unless you know which types of chemicals when mixed together can get you killed.
