Best way to give tractor a good wash?

[tallguy104]

Hey guys I wanna spruce up my tractor before I put it on the market. What’s the easiest/best way to clean all the accumulated grease and gunk of everything without causing any damage?

first thing that comes to mind is to squirt a can of degreaser over everything and then pressure clean the lot …but I’m not sure if this might damage certain things …or is there a better way..?

tips?

Kroil or WD-40 to wipe off the excess. You don’t want to wash the grease from where it’s supposed to be.
After it’s washed grease everything again to help push water out.

I wouldn’t worry about getting it too clean, I’d be leery of looking at a used machine that looks like the owner didn’t grease it.

Orange cleaner, and low pressure washed.

He's in OZ, so I don't know what's available to him.
I use ZEP.

Since these tractors are claimed to be amphibious you should just drive through a pond or stream occasionally.
