Looks like the one we had at Queenies and TBH I'd like to find one for myself as I intend to built myself a self contained workshop with parts washer and bead blaster incorporated.
Does it sit on a 56 gallon drum? and who's make is it. Just so I can see if the spec is suitable for my needs. Might be AC instead of DC for instance.

Will get a better pic Ken .. its 240v AC and at work. We have 2 .... one that's used for mucky stuff .... one for cleaner stuff . I thinks its on hire/lease they come every month with the smelly stuff. We do have an aqueous one too but it's for nuclear jobs so I cant use it ... just use Cathy's dishwasher instead when she's out ;D that's between you and me BTW Julie when you meet her !

Hi ash
Do you know what solution they use in it...
I got given a parts washer but never really knew what to put through it...
I plumped for kerosene in the end as I drained it out of a tank that was no longer required on a job we were on..so it was free....works ok but leaves it oily after so always needs a blast off with brake / clutch cleaner afterwards to remove residue

Will find out but it bloody reeks and you stink of it for ages afterwards. I was told it was kerosene but never actually checked.

Parts wash years ago use to be Safetykleen, and it used Jizer. These days they used some water base cleaner that is shite. Kerosene is OK for internal parts but, a nightmare on cases.

Going to hot tank them in my ultrasonic cleaner anyway at max temperature .. That way they will be squeaky clean to take new paint Parts washer was to get the main crud off.
