    Beware of Simple Green on old steel in the ultrasonic. Cleaned a hammer assembly from late 19th century revolver. Came out beautiful fire blue color. Except it when in as straw colored. Just sayin’.

    Yes they do. Hornady stuff works good, heated with distilled water. Blow dry with compressed air, parts are warm coming out of the tank.

    In my vevor I use simple green precision and water mixed 10-1. Machine tooling and arts come out very clean. mine is a 6 gallon unit. For grease oil removal dawn and water work well.

    Remember when the parts come out there is no rust preventatives left on them so oil needs to be appied
