« on: March 31, 2008, 06:35:04 AM »
Hi ;D A kind of plastic is produced as a wheel, and while prduction at the and of process there are oil, grease and shop soil. I am asking for a cleaner that can be used with wiping ? I thought thinner but it effects peoples health. So can you advice me any chemical or formula of any cleaner that can be used with a method of wiping? ???

Presumably, you've tried detergent and water, without success.  Do you know why?  Can you identify the plastic, and the grease/oil/etc., so the solvent can be tailored to the application?
Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.

Please try a mixture of sodium phosphate, sodium hydoxide and sodium carbonate. ;D

Depending on the plastic, what about an alcohol like IPA?
Tonight I’m going to party like it’s on sale for $19.99!
