<font size="4">  When using the Dawn, be sure and plug all openings and Rinse really good.  I usually apply a little heat with a heat gun after to dry it out good.  That stuff really does a great job, might take a couple applications.           ENJOY   !!!   RED </font>

Buy a used crock pot at a garage sale, fill it with full strength anti-freeze, and cook it for a day or two in the garage. Works like a charm!
