Torin Jacks Parts Washer: Big Red; 3.5 Gallon
Part Number: T10035
- Durable Steel Cabinet Construction
- 3.5 Gallon Fluid Reservoir
- Pump Recycles Solvent at 1/2 Gallon Per Minute
I bought this at Kragen Auto Parts for about $35
and it does the job. It's a little small and the pump has a little more pressure than I'd
like - a diffuser would be nice to prevent splashing / spray (someday I may replace the
on/off switch with a rheostat). Given more money and space I'd buy a bigger and deeper one
that would allow me find engine cases and exhaust system parts in there and minimize the
amount of solvent splashing out onto the counter and me.
You'll also have to buy solvent (obviously), cleaning tools (parts cleaning brush, wire
brushes, paint brushes, stones, etc.) and some good heavy duty gloves that cover your
forearms - it may take awhile but if you're washing alot of parts it's gonna start burning
eventually. I also have a rolling wire rack for drying. All of this is available at
OSH or your favorite local hardware store.
