I think we have always brought the subject of lube & hydro fluifs to a
pretty fine point on this list.  But, what about cleaning, degreasing,
fluids?  As I begin a new project I am starting to have to fight the 50
years of buildup on this latest acquisition.
 
I bought the ZEP Purple degreaser, this stuff seems to work real good, wear
gloves and don't let it get into an open cut.  My only complaint is that it
has a slick film residue that really requires some clean water scrubbing
after you have degreased your part.
 
So what EPA compliant(or not) compound are you using?  Pros & Cons?
 
Inquiring minds need to know,
Bill
