Anyone tried screen wash ?

Here's mine before and after using US carb cleaning fluid from Allandale

AshimotoK0:
This is a CB350K carb cleaned with the Allendale stuff. Note that this and Archmills retains the multi coloured sheen as original. If you use someting slightly alkaline or with salt in it (i.e washing up liquid but not necesarily dishwasher stuff) I find it loses the coloured sheen.  No before and after but its's a 1969 carb so you can imagine what it looked like before cleaning. The key to the correct stuff is it will contain 'ionic and non-ionic surfactants'. I believe that some dishwasher products contain this but not sure what else they also contain.

US cleaning will not remove white deposits inside from water damage ect. It's not the be all and end all of carb refurbishing. You need abrasive blasting IMHO for some parts.

Some really useful info on here:-
