    Default What are you using in your parts washer?

    I've been using simple green in my parts washer but was looking at some stuff at Tractor Supply called Crown PSC 1000. Anyone tried this stuff, or have do you have a prefered degreaser?

    I used to buy various solvents from the different parts stores. Most of them work OK, but usually they are expensive and tend to get filthy pretty fast.

    I started using a mixture of diesel fuel and solvent in mine. Makes the purchased solvent go a lot further and cleans just as good if not better.

    Our auto body class has about 5 gallons of thinner each month they need to dispose of. I started taking it home and adding it to the parts washer brew. Works great with Varsol, diesel, gasoline and thinner mixed together. Kind of hard on the lungs though. without a fan, I can't spend more than about 30 seconds over the tank.
    Remember if you didn't build it you can't call it yours.
