Cleaning a saw

[merc_man]

Just wondering some ideas for cleaning real dirty saws. I just use spray nine and lots of elbow greese

Get a Tornador if you have an air compressor. You barely need solvent. There's a bunch of cleaning jobs you can tackle you never thought about too like speaker cones.
Here's what it is. These things are massively cool, but you need a lot of CFM's...

Don't spray anything on it. You do know you can eat those little ball of Sh—t ?

Usually compressed air gets a saw clean enough for me when talking routine mantainence. If it's something I've torn down for a rebuild, solvent tank and a scrub brush

A good solvent with a toothbrush, and a paper towel to polish it up does wonders. Once in awhile a pipe stem cleaner is put into action, but not often.

One thing for sure, a clean saw usually makes for a better repair job than a filthy one.

Those are cool, I looked them up after seeing your post. May have to get one of these.

I still use Purple Power and a water hose to clean mine, I prefer Oil Eater but it costs a bit more....
