For a safe degreaser use "Simple Green". I buy this at Home Depot and it works great! I even recomend this at work to degrease refrigeration coils, cleans well and will not attack the aluminum like other degreasers. Nice thing about it is it is also enviromentally friendly and can be washed down the drain. Doesn't smell bad either!!! LOL
Just remember this- any product that states it is "Environmentally Friendly" or biodegradeable is talking about the product BEFORE it is used. The junk you are removing and washing down the drain might not be, so check with local authorities before doing so.
I manage almost 20 shops and all of them use and like Simple Green but all our wash water is run through a oil-water seperator before going into the city sewer system. And we received a discharge permit from the city allowing after we sampled waste and provided th city.
