swordfish210 20 Posted August 15, 2009 Cillit Bang is a good option, however you can't beat a good engine degreasant such as Gunk or Comma HyperClean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MerlinGTI 3 Posted August 15, 2009 I used mr muscle oven cleaner on a set of really grimey brakes recently, worked quite well with a few aplications The best stuff ive used that doesnt disolve your mortal flesh (ie. wont melt paintwork etc...) is AutoGlym Engine and machince cleaner. Puckka stuff. Gunk is rubbish imo. Ive heard good thinks about 'jizz' or is it 'gizz' ? dunno. I know it has a funny name tho espically when you suggest that you sprayed jizz all over your engine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know it has a funny name tho espically when you suggest that you sprayed jizz all over your engine I've only used Gunk once and i thought it was OK, the Comma stuff is much better though, however the stuff i used to do my latest engine block was friggin awesome: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan 99 Posted August 16, 2009 Gunk is rubbish imo. Ive heard good thinks about 'jizz' or is it 'gizz' ? dunno. I know it has a funny name tho espically when you suggest that you sprayed jizz all over your engine Gunk used to be amazing, but about 3 years ago they changed the formula and it's crap now. If you try Cillit Bang then read the back of the bottle, because it's not suitable for use on certain metals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cameron 16 Posted August 16, 2009 Jizer is the stuff you're thinking of, it does a pretty good job I cleaned all my stuff with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swordfish210 20 Posted August 16, 2009 Dude, you had that propper chem cleaned surely? Spotless ! Sorry, i did it outside my garage My mate got me some chemicals from work which he said they sometimes use to strip metals back to bare again. He also said wear a gas mask as the fumes from the chemicals can give you liver cancer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zebedy101 0 Posted August 17, 2009 i had a bash with some cillit bang but it didnt quite have the effect i had hoped so i gave up but it might just have been the fact i got a bit bored scrubbing. there must be an easier way of doing it? hmm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
