Debreasing tank

Jon Reynolds 8 March 2005 16:20:12
 Hi there,

I wish to have to ability to have a small tank in which i can leave a
cylinder head for example to soak in thinners/degreaser to clean it.

any suggestions to what i can use as a tank?

i have had suggested to me a baby bath before, but these are usually
plastic and i am concerned the thinners will just attack it and melt
it...

any suggestions would be muchly appreciated.

cheers

jon

 pretty sure you mean deGreasing tank. Why wouldnt a plastic tub work?
Plastic gas cans seem ok with pertolium products in them. Now
styrofoam...uh...th­ats a big no-no.

What you want is a proper parts washer with a fused lid that will
drop automatically is there is a fire.

Plenty to choose from at Harbor Freight or Northern Hardware.

Yeah, but if you order it, you are as likely to receive a baby bath as
a parts washer. On return, they will tell the credit card Co. that it
was a parts washer when they shipped it.
