Matt, Zep Purple De-greaser and water 1:5 I cut 99% Premium MDF, and the resin gets everywhere. For my rails, I have a piece of plastic gutter with end caps siliconed on and a hose fitting in one end for draining afterwards. For the honeycomb I have a large pet cage tray and a little aquarium pump. The rails take about ten minutes to soak and come out factory clean. The honeycomb I tilt it a bit and let the pump circulate over and drain through. Takes a bit and you keep moving the feed hose around on the bed until you are satisfied. WARNING: Do not do the honeycomb bed outside unless you want to drive your cat to distraction. In a bit of a breeze from the underside, the solution turns your bed into a million bubble blower. It will drive them nuts faster than a dozen red dot laser pointers. The solution is good for 5 to 7 cleanings depending on how bad your rails / bed gets. When I have to let my rails soak for twenty minutes I know it's time to make up a new batch of solution.

Thanks for adding your solution. I was going to try that one, but could not find it here in Australia

@@MWLaser The solution turns brown the very first time around from the resin it removes, but is in no way ready to trow out. I had tried several methods of rail cleaning, and the neighbor was putting new gutters on. They were aluminum, but collected rain water two days later in and and piece sitting in the scrap pile gave me the idea. The honeycomb bed trickle through is not the most efficient use of time, but I just move the hose around and do other things in between. The first time I did it outside, and the bubbles and cats had us all rolling with laughter. Either way, a quick rinse down with a garden hose afterwards and they are nice and clean. I have aluminum rails and a steel honeycomb, works great on both.

@@davev5686hey, I laser cut a ton of premium MDF and was going to try your method but it says on the ZEP purple industry degreaser not to use it on aluminum is there another type of ZEP you use or did it just not damage your aluminum parts?

I cleaned mine yesterday. I bought a big packing box, cut and formed it to just about an inch bigger all the way around than my honeycomb bed. Lined it well with some heavier mill plastic and laid my bed inside. I bought 6 bottles of LA's Totally Awesome Cleaner from the Dollar Store and pored it in and covered the honeycomb bed and then laid the blades in on top. I let that soak while I cleaned the rest of my machine with some spray Totally Awesome and now everything looks almost new again. No toxic or nauseous fumes, no need for gloves other than to keep your hands from getting dirty. Just took a little rinse with little water.

I am betting that BBQ spray cleaner would do wonders as well. I use the Makers Mark brand grill and oven cleaner and it makes my smoker look new. It pretty reasonable from Sams Club in the US...I think I will give it a try and see how it does... Thanks for the tips.

An interesting video, but please watch the sound output. I could hardly hear it at full volume and the last part sounded like you were in an echo chamber miles away.

Would these also work on the gantry? I burned vinyl and the metal got coroded a bit from the chlorine gas 😅

Depends on what you gantry is made from, if aluminum don't use the oven cleaner. I clean the gantries with alcohol on a rag. If unsure test on a small area 1st before applying to the entire gantry.
