Very satisfying haha. But one remark: We want you around for a long time, so: Use gloves. That stuff isn't good for you and getting in prolonged skin contact with it ain't good.
Paraffin is one of the most inert of fuels and doesn’t readily evaporate, you would certainly know if you splashed petrol on your hand as it would immediately evaporate off leaving that ‘cold’ sensation
Paint thinner is powerful but it makes your hands very cold, and it is expensive. I use gasoline because it cleans well and evaporates very quickly. Very interesting video. I finally found out the details of the cleaning rags, I was always curious about it.
Paint thinner makes your hands "cold" because it rapidly evaporates thus it doesn't leave anything behind since there is nothing else in it. Gasoline on the other hand has lots of addatives now days to help clean the engine so it will leave stuff behind and doesn't evaporate quickly (as in it can take hours or days)
🤨 ~ paraffin is one of the least “flammable” fuels as it doesn’t readily evaporate, in comparison to paint thinner & petrol which are both extremely flammable ⚠️🔥💥, and quickly evaporate; certainly there will be a risk of using those in a parts washer; of fumes building-up in a workshop
I have this parts washer and it drove me mad with the little drain hole lol so I cleaned it out and welded a 2” pipe fitting with valve works fantastic now lol faster to clean when you have smaller hgv parts to clean lol thanks for showing dean all the best
My “tapppy tap tap” screwdriver handle got so bad I had to use a large piece of shrink over the handle and it’s good as new now.😉 Thanks for taking us along, it can’t all be fun and games otherwise they wouldn’t call it work. Bottom line is a clean shop is a happy shop.✌🏼
We use in our ship a bio part washer „bio circle”. No one was able to stand kerosene, diesel or any thinner anymore. Wurth/berner part washers also not stinking.
Awesome video as always Dean. But I gotta ask, how many folks beside myself heard that file hit the floor and thought, now you'll be looking for it awhile longer!
I love kerosene, but it's a lot more expensive in the US than all our other fuels. For an 18L jug(5 gallons), it's $70US, which is over 63 euros. I can get bulk kerosene at the fuel pump, but it's $7 a gallon here, diesel is $3.50 at the moment. It is a hell of a cleaner!
Yeah people now days never clean the stuff they clean things with. Had a junker guy who came into our store, he had picked up a vaccum (Not a super expensive one but still almost a 200$ bagless new) and someone had thrown it out. He said it ran just fine so I took a look at it... Only thing wrong with it was it needed new filters. Still had the factory ones in there and they were clogged up with dirt and crud. for 14$ got 4 new sets of filters and that thing lived in the store for 4 more years cleaning our enterance mat (and we live in an area that heavily uses salt and sand in the winter) so that thing worked hard in those 4 years till someone maanged to break it sucking up entire loads of dirt, fine dirt and gravel from that mat (along with countless dust bunnies from under the displays)
Hopefully Draper will take note and make that drain hole a little larger? Perhaps keep the drain valve as is, but include a larger bung to get rid of the sludge more easily!
I like this video very interesting as never had one of these parts washers Could it be possible to make that hole bigger so it can drain quicker or what about a wet and dry vacuum suck up all that thick stuff at the bottom?
So what I get from this is that we can tell the moment in the parts washer cleaning cycle by watching how dirty the screwdrivers are in any given video.
Yes, diesel has a terrible odor. Standard kerosene is better but I strongly recommend deodorized (low odor) kerosene especially since you spend a lot if time in the fumes.
That was most likely coal oil, which is quite different from modern kerosene. The old coal oil wouldn't evaporate from the lamps the way the new stuff does.
Is the pump in yours the original one? We used to use Castrol cleaner through the one in the family shop for cleaning car bits and the pumps never lasted very long, not sure why. So no pump now, we just do a final rinse with brake cleaner.
I found myself grimacing when you were scraping the gunk off the shelf. Not a pleasant job. How often do you have to clean it out? Noticed your kero was red; the stuff we used in the kero heaters when I was a boy was blue. _I like smell of JetA1 in the morning, it smells like......flying._ 👍👍 *Thank you* for the video Dean.
@@deandohertygreaser Do one part, and next level tidy and clean, maybe the tools you use most area and some new vinyl flooring too please, light oak, but not fussy 🙂
Dean when I go on to your home page it keeps saying this channel has no content !? I can find your videos under the video button but it means I can't binge watch. Any ideas
I don't know what's happening there. I'm trying to contact youtube to get it sorted out. Videos are there if you go yo videos, but not under my home page for some reason
I think you've done a good thing cleaning out your parts cleaner a clean Parts washer doesn't have any bearing on the mechanic and you seem to be an excellent mechanic but it looks more professional to the untrained eye
the bucket is kept under the drain to catch anything that drips or leaks out. Sometimes things fall and land in the bucket. Obviously they don't go down the drain hole, its always closed anyway.
It is. As its not carcinogenic, but long skin exposure does lead to tumours according to experts. Not to mention it does cause skin inflammation. Dean told many time that he should use PPE like gloves and what not. So its "do as I say not as I do".
We always Jizer in our parts washer. It was at a waste water treatment works (shit works) so always gloves on when using it. Always. And keep yer gob shut.
Make sure to wear gloves when using gasoline, kerosene, and the other harsh chemicals because they can really mess up your hands. Neat video to see the whole cleanup process though.
13:00 Ese fondo de badeja está mal diseñado, deberia tener inclinación hacia una esquina o hacia el centro, con un desagote más amplio y forma de cono/embudo.
12:06 😂😮Now the wera screwdriver & paintbrushes didnt fit throug the drain so they must've been in the buchet before dumping kerosene.😅😂🛠️🔩🔧👍🏻👌🏻🛢️ ✊🏻🇺🇸🦅
Funnily enough, I'd checked this shortly before reading your comment. To all intents and purposes they're pretty much interchangeable but paraffin is more refined, a bit more expensive and is ,of course, used for making paraffin wax. I bet you remember the Esso Blee Dooler!
Yes - paraffin is a term of the ‘fuel’ variant of kerosene oil, for associated heaters and lamps and in solid wax form for candles and fire lighter wax blocks
My mum walked into the room while I was watching this video and I immediately switched to porn because it was easier to explain.
Should be top comment!
Thank you for sharing Mr Dean it was better than watching Emmerdale with the wife cheers
Glad you enjoyed it
Very satisfying haha. But one remark: We want you around for a long time, so: Use gloves.
That stuff isn't good for you and getting in prolonged skin contact with it ain't good.
Well said
Indeed. All sorts of chemicals get absorbed into the blood and are deposited throughout the body, including the brain.
Wondering how he has such smooth skin on his hands. In all the videos I've seen there's no gloves.
My thoughts also

I mean probably, but I feel like an open tank full of kerosene is an explosion hazard. Especially in a workshop.

@@samuelfellows6923 that's probably because paraffin is a solid at room temperature.
@@nils1953 🤨 - it is also available in liquid form for fuel in wick-type heaters and lamps
No one asked, everybody needed ❤❤❤❤😊
Very satisfying and with the voice-over from Dean, pure gold. We are satiated for now😂
I will bet you are amazed at the amount of people who are watching this video just goes to show how dedicated your viewers are keep up the good work
Amazed with how your hands are so clean before starting off considering how much dirt and grime you’re dealing with.

The screwdriver had me laughing so hard started crying.
Lol... I thought the dog had used it as a chew toy!
It's the little details like knowing exactly what part it was you left in there and what it belongs in!
My “tapppy tap tap” screwdriver handle got so bad I had to use a large piece of shrink over the handle and it’s good as new now.😉 Thanks for taking us along, it can’t all be fun and games otherwise they wouldn’t call it work. Bottom line is a clean shop is a happy shop.✌🏼

Quality video - didn’t disappoint
Cheers Dean 👍
Ahhhhhhh, so clean now. Nice job Dean
Well worth the wait.

But has to be done.
Keep up the great videos.

Finding the lost screwdriver, class.
where i worked we used irsol, its pretty strong so im not sure how it would compare
I think you need a bigger parts washer to clean your parts washer.
Nice job Dean.
WIHA for the win.
Nice one Dean.
So nice of you to post this video.😂
A scotch bright pad may be a good addition to the shelf for parts to sit on
Wow. How therapeutic was that. I was itching to give you a hand😂
Screw the parts washer! REPLACE THE NAILGUN TEST BOARD!
😂
Now you nailed it.
Or if not that the 110v case with the cement in it for testing hammer action. It owes you nothing :)
I like this video very interesting as never had one of these parts washers Could it be possible to make that hole bigger so it can drain quicker or what about a wet and dry vacuum suck up all that thick stuff at the bottom?
Cheers Dean. There just isn't enough hours in the day pal.
So what I get from this is that we can tell the moment in the parts washer cleaning cycle by watching how dirty the screwdrivers are in any given video.
Oddly satisfying
Should be wearing gloves when using keroscene or any other fuel or cleaning chemicals
And now your wife knows what happened to that tea towel
Yes, diesel has a terrible odor. Standard kerosene is better but I strongly recommend deodorized (low odor) kerosene especially since you spend a lot if time in the fumes.
There are so many uses for kerosene . My mother used to put it on our cuts and scrapes and kill bugs with it
That was most likely coal oil, which is quite different from modern kerosene. The old coal oil wouldn't evaporate from the lamps the way the new stuff does.

What volume is the washer?
On eBay im seeing some for 80€ with 80 liters. Is that large enough?
this one is classed as a 54ltr tank floor standing washer. I have it setting on a steel shelf
@@deandohertygreaser
Thank you so much for the reply and keep the got work going
How long has it been since last time? Very satisfying and thanks for sharing.
Hey dean! Quick question what camera do you use? Especially in the shot where you scrape off the gunk, im really curious!
When is the last time it was cleaned? How often do you have to do it?
Hi Dean, what is your opinion on the original Metabo tools quality-wise? (The dark green ones, not Hikoki.)
I feel oddly satisfied now. 😌
awfully satisfying. Is there something wrong with me. Im a chef do I need help ha ha
👍👍
I can't believe raw kerosene all day doesn't bother you. I like my fluid way cleaner haha.
I have heard that kerosene is harmful to the skin. Have you had any skin irritations so far?
Now more videos of it in action...!
Dean, my boy, has his parts washer small enough to keep in a filing cabinet when not in use it's pushed back out of the way.
Will the wee pump do hydraulic and engine oil
Dean prooving you might need a parts cleaner to clean your parts cleaner shelf.
I found myself grimacing when you were scraping the gunk off the shelf. Not a pleasant job. How often do you have to clean it out? Noticed your kero was red; the stuff we used in the kero heaters when I was a boy was blue.

Would take to long.

You know about the Forth Rail Bridge? Well, apply that to Dean's workshop.
What soap do you use to get all the grease off your hands at the end of the day?
Would a citrus or other specialist degreaser work better at degreasing and not have the problem of disposal or the smells or the fire risk be better
Yalls kerosine is red? Our offroad diesel is red
Nice 🍿

Would it not be quicker to scoop most of the gunk out?
I think you've done a good thing cleaning out your parts cleaner a clean Parts washer doesn't have any bearing on the mechanic and you seem to be an excellent mechanic but it looks more professional to the untrained eye
A.S.M.R video until you used the scraper on the bottom of the tank jeez that made me wince!
Should get a dustpan, scooping it out would go much quicker
That’s an awesome drain, you can get paint brushes and screwdrivers to go through…. 😂
the bucket is kept under the drain to catch anything that drips or leaks out. Sometimes things fall and land in the bucket.
Obviously they don't go down the drain hole, its always closed anyway.
will the kerosene not poison you? curious
No but the oils disoved into the old stuff could be damaging
It is. As its not carcinogenic, but long skin exposure does lead to tumours according to experts. Not to mention it does cause skin inflammation.
Dean told many time that he should use PPE like gloves and what not. So its "do as I say not as I do".
leave drain open and move pump to big contaner below tub
When will you start repairing more tools dean
Iv been of last week so more coming soon
@@deandohertygreaser okay then we
We always Jizer in our parts washer. It was at a waste water treatment works (shit works) so always gloves on when using it. Always. And keep yer gob shut.
How many times have you forgotten to close the valve in the bottom before filling it up with new kerosene?
Think this is the first time I didn't forget.
The best Crack is when you forget to place the empty bucket back under the drain as well.
@@deandohertygreaser good to see you're human like the rest of us 😂
Looks like deasel? kerosine is white in US.
Make sure to wear gloves when using gasoline, kerosene, and the other harsh chemicals because they can really mess up your hands. Neat video to see the whole cleanup process though.
Isn't kerosene more dangerous to put through a pump then diesel?
Onlyfumes video :)
Isn't kerosene volatile/flamable?
Gloves?
Krazy question isnt that extremely flammable
Only when in a mist spray

WONDER IF A DISPOSABLE LINER LAYING IN BOTTOM - ROLL THE MESS UP IN LINER AND TOSS ?
Do you flush the waste kerosene down the toilet?
No
Interesting use of paraffin oil, unfortunate that you can’t burn it to dispose of it after cleaning parts
the behind the scenes of any job cleaning and tidying up often boring and sometimes not paid properly. thanks for showing it to us bye
Bro please one video make for your repairing tools to you can repair machines then I will be purchased same tools
Now I have a very clear idea what the shop smells like....
You had the chance to buy a bigger parts washer to clean your parts washer and you missed it 🤣

You seem to like those wiha screw dr8vers and bits. Are they very good
I do
I thought using kerosene was not recommended due to its flammability and low cleaning.
Kerosene is only flammable in a mist form. and it dose a good job for me cleaning tools
It's actually a good solvent choice for cleaning/degreasing because it doesn't harm rubber unlike some other solvents
