I tried the partswasher chem, soaking in gas,soaking marvel mystery oil,none worked verygood,scotchbrite pad in the partswasher,

the scotch brite wheel like ya use when deburing works,


becareful with easyoff oven cleaner on the sides,it will etch it

On the superstock web forums they say dont use scotch brite pads, it leaves fibers that want wash off and will go thru the motor,bearings etc. not worth taking a chance
