Parts Washer "recipe"
I'm getting ready to refill my parts washer. Anyone have any recipes that they like more than others? Diesel/kerosene & ATF? Store bought mix?
I'm rebuilding another Gen VI 454, but this one is for my 32' Sea Ray.

The PSC1000 from Tractor supply works pretty good.

I've been using mineral spirits my son got cheap, working for Sherwin Williams, but he isn't there anymore. I may have to try that PSC 1000

I have the PSC1000 in my parts washer. I run it through a filter, and it is still very effective 5 years later.
Will be changing it out soon. I don't remember what I paid for it, but bought two 5 gallon cans. Really good stuff. At least as good as the old Safety Kleen solvent, and as good or better than the Zep. I still consider it a bargain at 8 bucks a gallon. The time invested in changing it out dwarfs the cost of the product IMHO. Very low odor, which is important to me, because my garage is below my living space. When I finish my workshop, I have not decided it I am taking this cleaner down there, or just buy another parts washer for the shop. May need it from time to time for small jobs that I may still do here at the house. I only paid $20 for the used Safety Kleen parts washer.
