For the first round I took it to a self-serve car wash, stood it on end
on a couple of 2x4s and used engine cleaner and a wire brush then a high
pressure wash. Rinse, repeat. Think I may have switched to carb
cleaner or brake cleaner for round two.
Can't comment on the enviromental impact of this, but don't do it on a
Saturday morning when the lines are long... you will be very unpopular.
Finished the job at home with a combination of carb cleaner, small wire
brushes, bamboo skewers, etc.
