Default Wd-40

WD-40 and wipe off the excess.

Works every time.

As many others saud: WD 40 & Toothbrush,doing it when the motor's a little warm works well but not necessary.

Like an earlier poster said, Pig Spit. I've been using it for over fifteen years. Absolutely no scrubbing, just spray it on black wrinkle paint then wipe off. Try it.

I used Pig Spit for the same problem and I was very pleased and easy. Sprayed cylinder fins and everything looked new. Spray and drink beverage of choice no scrubbing.

I use pledge on other areas but maybe I will try it on cases. I am not a big fan of WD40 on any paint but I know some other that use just not me.
