Is this just one of those "Secret" Machinist things?
Greetings and Salutations
Other day, I'm sent over to the Mori Cell in Bldg 1, and the first thing Bob says is "Okay, clear off the granite slab, get a cup of coffee, pour it on the slab and wipe it off." ?Wash the slab with coffee? "Yeah, it cuts the oil from the Komo." [The Komo has spray and chip issues. Even with shower curtains going up near the ceiling, it still manages to fling chips on our rock. Bad Komo, bad.] Anyway, I figure "WTH, he's been doing this longer than I..." and clear off the slab, pour the coffee and start wiping. It works, too! And after all I've said about building 1's coffee, you really _can_ use it as an industrial cleaner.... So, is this just one of those 'field expedites' or just something Machinists Know, which Engineers lack the hands on experience to know? tschus pyotr -- pyotr filipivich. as an explaination for the decline in the US's tech edge, James Niccol wrote "It used to be that the USA was pretty good at producing stuff teenaged boys could lose a finger or two playing with." |

I can't comment on the general usefulness of this idea, but the coffee
itself will leave a microscopic oily finish. I notice this when I wipe out our coffee pot.

That said, I like the Starbucks dark roasted coffees and turn down coffee from any and all cafes, restaurants, housewives. I'm spoiled, fer sher. Sadly, now that I've developed a food allergy to coffee, I drink but one cup per WEEK and feed the rest of the half-pot to my neighbor.

I tried it and it did seem to work. Use diet, as the sugar leaves a film. You're right, I should have added that I was still living in Cal-ee-fornia then, where the temperature never dropped to freezing and the "coolant" in our cars was just plain water. Every service station had water hoses which pulled up out of a hole in the pavement at the end of each pump island and a quick splash from one of those could be used to wash the Coke off the windshield after it had done it's job. A tire filling air hose pulled up out of the same location too. When I worked as a pump jockey during high school, that was the way we cleaned customer's windshields, a splash from the water hose followed by a wipe with a squeegee. We also had to check the air in all four tires most of the time, the oil and water levels, and even use a whisk broom to flip sand off the front floor mats. That's what "Full Service" meant back then. Nowadays what you get is more like the "service" a farmer brings his cows to a bull for. :-) Jeff -- Jeffry Wisnia (W1BSV + Brass Rat '57 EE) "Truth exists; only falsehood has to be invented." |

I also worked as a pump jockey just out of high school ( I prefer the
title "Petroleum Transfer Engineer"). The station was just outside of Beverly Hills on Santa Monica Blvd, and in 1970 we did the full service routine. One day some rich ******* pulled up in his El Dorado (most Beverly Hills attorneys drove them) and as I was washing his windshield, he insisted I get inside his car and wash the inside of the glass! I had been working in the station garage, and unknown to me, I had grease on my butt. Well, when I got out of his car there was a big black streak across the Caddy's cloth seat. He got mad and told me to clean it off, so I sprayed my windshield cleaner on the seat and rubbed it in with my, you guessed it, oily rag. No tip that day. *******! Ed Ferguson |

Some places I've encountered, that one's still floating around, alive and kicking (Wording intentional The "scarey" thing is that while the efficaciousness of carbonated colas as a post coital contraceptive douche is oft exaggerated, I recall reading of Yet Another Study which did determine that A) colas aren't very good contraceptives, but B) Coca Cola is the best at it. Meaning that Coke does a less bad job of thwarting the little wrigglers than Pepsi, Dr Pepper, Moxie, tab or Brand X.

Those were also the days when some girls believed the same shake and squirt thing with a bottle of Coca Cola was an effective post-coital spermacidal douche. (That's more than you needed to know I guess....) Jeff I can't and won't speak as to the effectiveness of using coke POST-coital, but it makes for some, shall we say, "interesting", feelings if used PRE-coital. PopRocks and oral sex works, too No...no metal content at all...none. Mike |

Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us) off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give them self determination under "play nice" rules. Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you for torturing the cat." Gunner |

I've always used naphtha. Coffee will leave an oily residue and might
get absorbed by the surface plate. pyotr filipivich wrote: Greetings and Salutations Other day, I'm sent over to the Mori Cell in Bldg 1, and the first thing Bob says is "Okay, clear off the granite slab, get a cup of coffee, pour it on the slab and wipe it off." ?Wash the slab with coffee? "Yeah, it cuts the oil from the Komo." [The Komo has spray and chip issues. Even with shower curtains going up near the ceiling, it still manages to fling chips on our rock. Bad Komo, bad.] Anyway, I figure "WTH, he's been doing this longer than I..." and clear off the slab, pour the coffee and start wiping. It works, too! And after all I've said about building 1's coffee, you really _can_ use it as an industrial cleaner.... So, is this just one of those 'field expedites' or just something Machinists Know, which Engineers lack the hands on experience to know? tschus pyotr |
