Try this without a steamer

[Robert8194]

Well, I bit the big bullet yesterday... ordered the Hill Injection. Looking forward to the upgrade!

I think you will be pleased. I keep finding more things to use it on.

Tried it first. Wouldn't touch this stuff. It was hardened and had to be melted.

I use my Tornador mostly and hardly ever use my steamer now. Its good to have both!

I love my tornador and still use it a lot. But I'm hooked in steam. Haven't found much it won't clean.

How come no one mentions the optima steamer? That thing is pure BOSS.

It's nasty! but it comes with a $6500 price tag.

True. So what are these other steamers? Got links?

It's also huge, IIRC... not ideal for a lot of people.

I just received my MCculloch steamer in and WOW!!! What have I been missing? I first tested it on the tile in the house figuring it was the hardest surface to clean. Zipped though a groutline in a snap and made it look brand new. Moved on to the Microwave and it zapped all particals like they were wet noodles. Now I'm headed to the car to test on plastic, leather and wheels. What's most impressive is you don't need chemicals to clean.!!!(say it with me again) Man, this will pay for it's self in about 3-6 months. I'm always concerend about what dilution rate to use and as most of you can identify with me on that. Sometimes you can't go heavy when you realy want to. Then you are force to scrub or rub and most times that's never the best process to you. Thanks to this thread I'm going steam happy. More updates to come.

Ok you've got me curious with a couple things here...primarily the engines, door jambs and wheels/wheel wells lol. The areas where the hinges are...is SUCH a pain in the ass to clean...now the video shows that it does a great job but they cut it and dont really show how long it took...and sometimes the dirt in there is mixed with grease so its REALLY bad...and i find without agitation, it wont budge with my McCulloch.

So what kinda time frame are you looking at being able to clean the bad stuff with your steamer? Does even the greasy stuff just melt off or does it take some agitation?

The bad stuff does melt off. Those pesky hinges are no match for steam. I rarely agitate anything. Just steam and microfiber. A little agitation might speed it up but I'm too lazy. It only takes seconds to break down the gunk. For example, the mess in the console at the beginning of this thread probably took less than five minutes to eliminate.
