Parts cleaning/degreasing
Now I've read that Jamie prefers to use the same pan his dinner is in but I don't have a saucepan big enough to clean a pair of very dirty cylinder heads.
A quick Google search didn't bring up anyone offering a cleaning service south of Scotland.
Ultra sonic or acid cleaning is what I think I'm after, any where in the south east?
Thanks
