It comes in a spray bottle its a purple liquid. I cant remember what they call it. The sprayer on my bottle went bad so it'S in a plain bottle now. It did a good job on my intake and valve covers. No discoloration to the paint. But as always test a spot before using heavily. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 I have been known to spray with degeaser at a car wash. Does a great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I second the Simple Green, we buy it by the gallon I use it for the tires, wheel wells, and the driveway.

john57 Posted April 27, 2003 Share Posted April 27, 2003 I used a product called Challanger. It cuts thru grease and didn't hurt the paint. Comes in gallons. Works great. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thought you might want to be aware of this before you try it. ------------------ '70 Monte Carlo, Forest Green Metallic w/black vinyl top, Dark Green Metallic Interiorcommunity.webshots.com/user/wv_moonshiner http://www.cardomain.com/id/mr70monte If you see this car on a trailer, call 911, because it's stolen!
