I picked up and old KleeenFlow parts washer last night.
Its maybe from the 60's maybe takes 20 gal .Iam wanting to put some degreaser in it but do not know what to get.

I want really good stuff, nothing that kinda works good.

Do you guys have any idea what to use?
Where can I get it?


thanks
scott

We personally either buy bulk solvent from the local parts house, OR for degreaser I strongly recommend OIL EATER, you can buy in 5 gallon buckets from Costco.

Awesome stuff. Not Skin Friendly. Very Happy

Could you do a home piezo cleaner like what they have at the machinist? The one I'm talking about uses water/soap and has a piezo generator and water heater.

????

whats that???


????Piezo-Electric Vibrating Generator??????

Basis:

1. A thin piece of metal, plastic, cloth or paper ribbon/flag "flaps" in the wind. The stronger the wind the more it flaps at a given frequency.

2. Piezo-Electric elements turn mechanical strain into electrical potential (voltage).

Now the idea:

A piezo-electric element that is attached to a thin metal strip will generate a voltage as it flaps back and forth due to wind. The stronger the wind, the higher the "flap" frequency, and therefore the larger the voltage generated.

Uh, also run backwards they will produce ultrasonic frequencies that will help break up dirt and grease from engine parts. Combined with soapy water, it will "degrease" parts without toxic products.
