New Cleaner Degreaser
« on: August 23, 2017, 07:31:39 pm »
Seen a new one out.  https://www.wd40specialist.com/products/industrial-strength-cleaner-degreaser-1gal/?fref=gc

Anyone tried WD-40 Degreaser? Just figuring water based it might be safe for cylinders and plastics.

Says won't harm sensitive surfaces like aluminum, copper, glass and plastics. Might be good for ultrasonic cleaners too.

Bought some today to try on this guinea pig.

I've tried the aerosol version. Works pretty good.

 First try just sprayed waited a min and rinsed and got most except for the heavy stuff. 2nd time used brush to get the heavy compacted stuff. Not bad and didnt streak or discolor the aluminum or plastics.

I found a foam aerosol version at our local Canadian Tire store.
Pic of it here, $7.99 is not a bad price either.  Haven't tried it yet.

Here's one more I bought from my saw dealer $17 .
Haven't tried it yet but told it's great stuff for sleds and motorcycles and also a polish.

2 stroke mix brushed on with a paintbrush and an air compressor seems to work pretty good.

I was taught kerosene I think it was growing up to clean parts.

I grew up using Varsol.
Quit using it because it took out the cheap Chinese made washer pumps we get today for my parts washer.

Before and after on this chainsaw

1 time 3mins soak, rinsed off with water hose with well water at 30-50psi max pump. So not much pressure there.

Then started then wiped off.
