Whilst watching TV the other night I looked at an advert for Flash Ultra – general thing about a miracle cleaning product that removed baked on grease. As I am currently trying to remove 40 years of caked on oil from a Hardinge HLV-H, I sort of smiled and dismissed its miracle powers.

Fast forward to yesterday whilst in Morrisons with SWMBO. Looking in the cleaning section I saw the advertised product and thought 'what the heck, It can't be any worse than the multitude of products I have already tried' and so bought a spray pack.

Sheesh, this stuff is amazing. Spray on, leave for a few mins and with a mild scotchbrite pad, the old caked on oil just goes away. I am trusly impressed! There is a slight negative issue in the fact it does seems to take away a small amount of the paint but this is only minor – it does not strip the paint!

What was taking me hours with degreaser and a scotchbrite pad now takes me minutes. At £3 a spary pack, its worth every penny!!
