I used to put a bit of vinegar in me washer bottle when I was younger. Used the stuff out of me pickled onion jar once and 2 days later the washers didn't work. Went to investigate further and there was a piece of pickled onion skin stuck in the washer jet!!!

Never seen it used on metal like that before. Comparing that to Frosts metal ready pound for pound, then it's Sarsons for me mate!!

Eau de Pickled Onion, it's the latest thing you know.

Nah, it would be for old Rangie parts, and maybe some bits for the P6 as and when.

actually, just a though, I think I'm gonna try this next week. Might nip down to Makro and buy some Vinegar (you don't get a daft look when you buy in bulk there!) and stick some old suspension bits and stuff I've got lying around.
Got a few containers I can dump the stuff in here and no problem jet washing it off later.
