Allow me to introduce some of you folks that are cleaning car parts and don't have access to an old coffee can half full of gasoline and an old paint brush, a brand NEW product that's been on the market for the past 60 some years (in major markets throughout the US).

Ovens are for small garage powdercoat jobs

And yes it worked surprisingly well.

Don't be ridiculous. Miata tires fit in the oven. These are too big

Back in the day I used to wash IBM Model M mechanical keyboards in a dishwasher. Worked great, just have to make sure they dry completely first.

Agh, back when keyboards were keyboards, and could be used as personal protection devices.
