[snip]...... i walked in with my newly repainted valve cover (yes
paint not powder coat) which had, from sitting in the garage for a few
days, picked up some greasy finger prints, not wanting to put up with
the fumes of gunk or other engine cleaner i asked if they had anything
in thier entorage of cleaning stuff that would remove the greasy
finger prints, to which my wifes partner said, yea go get the bottle
of COMET Bathroom cleaner and it should take the grease right off.
well it does, infact i tested it on the baked on oil inside the cover,
the stuff that wouldn't come off using an entire can of gunk engine
cleaner, or foamy brite engine cleaner. spray some on, let it set for
10 minutes scrub with an old tooth brush and squeaky clean, this
weekend i plan on testing on the engine block itself.

Larry and Scions,
Think about the deeper inplications of this discovery. A product
designed for cleaning TOILETS works well on TRIUMPHS!
I find this very depressing..........
