I need a parts washer for my shop. There are dozens of cleaner chemicals out there, water based or otherwise? Presently my shop is the garage attached to my home (next year I'm building a 2.5 car garage) and anymore the smell of brake cleaner hits you in the face when you walk inside.
#1.- I would like a cabinette that seals well so it doesn't smell up the place

#2. - What size, 20 gal.?

#3. - What cleaner strips greasy sludge the best?

#4. - Does a heater make it work better?

#5. - What brand without breaking the bank? I noticed HF has the cheapest but lousy pump and no flow-thru brush. The big tool distributors are really expensive! NAPA has some looks good at $300.00.

#6. - What are you using?
 
OOPS! sorry, I just found on a second attempt that Grumpy already has this covered.
