I want to ultra clean the top of engine crankcase.
Baked on on bird poop is faint visible but I want it gone.
Have used all types of liquid cleaners with light bristle brush. No real effect. Long term stubborn
I have noted late night TV infomercial for hand held steamer cleaner. But doubt their claims.
Does anyone have any experience with steam cleaning select aviation parts with steam?
Regards

Re: Clean Engine Crankcase
A pressure washer usually does a good job, but one must be careful to keep the high pressure jet away fron seams etc.. lest the sealer and gaskets be breached.
