Anyone use Oven Cleaner?

God this stuff works great!!! WAYYYY better than Foaming Engine Brite or whatever. Just the aeresol cans of oven cleaner. Found it at a local grocery discounter for .99 cents a can. Spray it on, it foams up, let is sit and hose off. Greasy grime just falls off!

Careful with that stuff Steve. Most of those products have Lye, or other caustic chemicals which can adversely affect rubber hoses, and wiring, as well as painted surfaces.

Yeah, it's really harsh. Messes with paint pretty seriously. Doesn't take it off, but dulls the finish and puts on white spots. But for general salvage work? GEEEEZZZ. Turned a 5-speed SILVER in one light application. A diffy took two. Sprayed a front crossmember/rack once, hosed it off and the next morning it was RUSTY. That's how little grease was on it! I'm in love with this stuff!
