I don't have a parts washer, but saw one at Big Lots on sale for $39.95--it
was small, but it looked very useful. The note on the box said that it was NOT
for water-based solvents. Personally, I like to use diesel fuel as a parts
washing solvent. It works just like kerosene, but leaves everything with a
fine film of clean oil to keep it from rusting. Easily cleaned off with
mineral
spirits if necessary. I always figured that if I was running a parts washer,
I would fill it with diesel.
