Trying to find or make a heated solvent parts wash.
Cleaning parts with the icy hose on my hands and knees out in the yard after work doesn't sound appealing
Updates coming soon! -BIG DAN
Harbor freight is where I bought my parts washer for like $50 the. The 5gal bucket cleaner fluid I had to get form Tractor Supply.... Don't know how I lived all these years without it.
I need one of these
This is the one I have:

But I should go get this one:
http://www.harborfreight.com/20-gallon-parts-washer-with-general-purpose-pump-94702.html
here is the solvent:

I bought the 5 gal jug of solvent in 08-09 and I still have like 3.5 gals left and I actually use the parts washer quite a bit.
This is the one I have, not heated but works great:

Picked up the 20 Gallon Parts wash! Amazing!
Priced at $130 I was ready and willing to pay for the convenience.
Grabbed some chem gloves, clamp work light, 12 wire brushes, and a few 1/8 drill bits for pulling some broken screws.
Scanned it all through... $95.60
Receipt says $69.99 for the parts wash on sale... 
Installed a water heater to bring it to a piping 130 degrees! Steaming!
Picked up 5 gallons of "Grease Lightning" from lowe's. Dropped in everything for a long soak.
Gave it a shot, and it works great. Pump supplies more then enough fluid and pressure. Tray and stamped legs are super sturdy. Even the lid support can handle the weight of the clamp light NO PROBLEM.
This thing is going to get USED. Like one of Mike's blow up dolls!

They are not blow up dolls... They are dead hookers that I shellacked.
Pictures of how well it works...
Heater, do show and tell, I need that for mine.
