RE: Parts Cleaning Tank Recommendations?

["Gary H." <62to65mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Folks that make water-based cleaners point out the environmental, 
safety, and potential fire hazards of traditional solvents and that 
water-based systems are less money to operate, for example:

http://www.hydro-blast.com/index_files/Page341.htm also has a 
discussion. 

Apparently heated versions of water-based work best. Maybe still not 
quite as good as some solvent-based systems, but pretty good -- you have 
to weigh the tradeoffs of cost/smell/safe disposal of solvent-based 
cleaners.

Simple Green makes parts washers too.
