Default OT (semi) : Grease Remover

Hi all,

Had a sticky screen door this summer, so I cleaned all the rails and
sprayed with white lithium grease.

Worked fine for the summer, but now is colder and grease has thickened
and turned a pretty nasty shade of yellow. So I now have yellow,
sticky grease all over the frame.

Any suggestions on a good solvent to remove this gunk?

Should I just use alcohol or something more aggressive?

Best & TIA

Freddie
