Spritz it through your teeth.

Nah, no oil or gas on the island. Brake clean and decent electrical cleaner cut it, but it just spreads around like mad. I got them pretty clean with electro clean and rags and compressed air, that will have to do for the chassis but I’ll put the heat sinks in the kitchen sink with soap and water for the final “cleansing”.
What is the composition of gas “condensate”? Must be light aromatics similar to petroleum distillation if they’re liquid at room temp no?

Would Jack Daniels clean that white goo off?

I don’t stock such swill... It seemed that brake cleans cut it but elbow grease and copious amounts of rags were required to make it “go away”.

Nope...
91% Isopropyl cuts it pretty well...
Does denatured alcohol work, I am going to start tearing down a pl 400 soon? I have never tried that on the white grease.
Yes it does, either type works.
Thank you
Do it outside so the fumes don't get you.

Ether wwhat man....
Either high percentage Methanol or Isopropyl removes the white paste.
Spray can starter fluid.

You can also use Everclear
Or that carburetor cleaner, will take anything off but I do not like using that stuff. Make sure you do whatever cleaning outside with proper ventilation.
