Cleaned it down with Gunk Degreaser [Pack it on] , Scrubbed with Light wire wool to remove all grease and grime , then got a soft wire brush and went at it by hand for about 2 hours [kept putting on the gunk degreaser] , came up pretty clean when i done that also removed a lot of the hard grime that had built up over it which scrubbing wouldn't remove , Then washed it down with power washer and a brush and washing up liquid [All holes gaps filled in well to prevent water getting in] , Dried it well , washed down with Thinners , Masked it up and Sprayed it with Heat Resistant 500 Degree Aluminium Paint , Gave it about 4 coats all in , 2 tins , Ill Post A couple more picture of the box when i finished cleaning with the wire brush .
