Default Flushing / cleaning a radiator

As most of the crud sits in the bottom of the radiator using a hose through one of the valve holes whilst tilting it so the water runs out the other usually does the trick. Taking the air vent or plug of one of the top openings and repeating with the hose tends to get rid of any crud built up in the vertical channels.
