Some oven cleaners are caustic, and some caustics can attack aluminium,
which may be an issue. I've always understood that when removing carbon
(which hasn't been necessary as part of a routine a decoke for many decades
now) it is best to leave a ring of carbon round the outer edge of the
piston. As such that dictates an implement to remove the carbon from the
rest of the crown, of such a form and used in such a manner so as not to
'dig in' to the crown and leave rough patches.
