I just pulled a piece of aluminum out of my scrap stock bucket that was particularly filthy. Dried up oil & dirt.
Sitting on my desk is a bottle of stuff that I mixed up to unclog an inkjet printer. I figured what the hell, it's better than nothing, and gave it a try. It worked great, and I'm thinking this could be my new go-to every day cleaner. It's super cheap to make:
1 part household ammonia
1 part 91% isopropyl alcohol
3 parts distilled water
Just thought I'd share.
Just don't let the ammonia sit on aluminum for long periods of time. Rinse it off. It's alkaline and it will eat aluminum.
