Years ago it was always cut down 20L drums with Petrol in them that we used, tho that’s kinda frowned apon these days.

I use petrol to clean all mechanical things.

For prepping for welding I do wire wheel,sanding, grinding which ever I can and need, and use acetone as the cleaner.

i have never used oxy to weld or braze, just use it for cutting or heating.

Id bet my lunches you’d know more about this stuff than me.
