Cleaning Tractor

Randy K. Crump · Apr 1, 2016

I have wire brushed most all of the grease/dirt off of the tractor. What can I use to get around all of the nooks and corners,
around nuts, etc.? Sandblasting and pressure washing is not an option for me. Is there a solution made that I can apply to get
the rest of the remaining dirt/grease off of the tractor?

Yup, Dollar store oven cleaner in gallons.

I have wire brush and used cleaners & fuel oil to soak grease and dirt. I can hook a hose to hot water heater and use hot water to remove the cleaner and heavy dirt.

I've just cleaned mine in prep for paint and found cheap oven cleaner and a strong degreaser plus lots of brushing are effective. I got a stainless steel "toothbrush" at Home Depot that works well for scrubbing hard to reach areas. I used Members Mark purple degreaser from SAMs club to supplement the oven cleaner and it's good strong stuff. Good luck with your project!

A set of brass brushes and some oven cleaner works well for the nooks and corners. Harbor Freight sells a pretty decent electric power washer for about 80 bucks which would help more than anything. Once all the heavy stuff is removed I would wipe it down with a wax and grease remover frequently changing rags.
