aye...fingers even clean are super greasy.
parts cleaner unit wouldnt be a bad idea...but they do tend to recirculate the fluid...not much use for being grease free.
what sort of cost per small item are we talking??

I havnt done any for ages, did a load of machine parts for my dad then thats as far as it went, might dig the stuff out again soon...
As for temperature, the bits I did for a packaging machine has heated rollers for sealing plastic sachets, about 400 degrees on the element itself and no discoloured Chrome on the bits near it

its an absolute bitch to get a good finish on aluminium, ends up just looking dull, better off just polishing the shit out of it
