Brake cleaner and a rag, then I spray them with WD-40 to keep them from rusting if they're not chrome.

X2 or Starting Fluid works really well as well... I really don't use WD though on them if they start to rust them i use a little motor oil on them or trans fluid ..

I use PB Blaster, but same thing at my garage.

I try to use the non-chlorinated stuff so its better overall.

Don't you wish, though, that it could have been double the amount?

I have found that even $3200 worth of tools isn't "enough."

Sad, really.
