Cleaning grease from cables, electronics, metal parts and plastic components
 

Hi everyone !

Does anyone know a technique or product to clean grease from cables,
electronics, metal parts and plastic components ? We receive a lot of
different components from clients, who all use grease. So before we
service the equipment, we have to clean it all, and it takes a lot of
time.

We use Goo Gone, but whatever you cannot wipe with a cloth (like the
inside of the cable's conectors) stays dirty.


I was thinking of somekind of a soaking bath that you leave the
product in or shake it in and just wipe the excess off.

Does this miracle exist ?

Thanks in advance...

I was going to recommend Curtisol from Curtis Industries (it's a spray
cleaner with citrus oils), but their Website is missing. Apparently, they're
out of business.

I use Windex for most of the electronic cleaning.
it works fine.

I don't think there is one product for all uses.
Read the below link. Water based cleaners can
corrode electrical contacts. Oil based cleaners
leave a film. Solvent based cleaners can harm
some plastics.

Compressed air then alcohol wipes.

??Why not an ultrasonic bath device using plain warm water and soap,
followed with a rinse of distilled water with a good time for air drying.??
Minimal use of harsh chemicals which may/maynot harm particular plastics.
Alcohol (Denatured) may tend to be corrosive to many types of plastics, even
when it seems to have been completely wiped off.
Problem, one solvent and procedure may not completely fill your
requirement.
