paint stripper let it sit, Then brake clean so it dry's. After it dries use different size wire wheels. using the whels after it dries stops that paint stripper from flying all ocer you and the shop. I do this on buttoned up motors,
Fresh builds should go in a oven dry up and burn everything off. Then thoroughly cleaned in a hot tank. Then rinsed with soap and water in a rinse tank.
This motor was cleaned while it was buttoned up with stripper, Painted and then I install all the core plugs. Same engine same car
