Vinegar to remove mold-release/grease?

[quozl]

Heya lads,

I saw Robin mention using Vinegar to clean grease and mould release agents (I think) off metal minis by steeping them in the vinegar.

I normally use washing up liquid and scrub minis with a tooth-brush but I've got about 100 GZG minis to clean and if steeping them in vinegar works as well then it'd save me some back-ache

How long do people steep them in vinegar for?
Do they just steep them, then wash them with water - nothing else needed?

Did I misunderstand the whole vinegar thing?

Vinegar Baths are brilliant. Get the white vinegar in a tub, poor some out into a glass container (with a lid). Clean up flash or other junk on your mini's then drop them in for up to 2hrs. They will come out perfectly cleaned. I then scrub them with soapy warm water, dry them on a paper towel and then glue together etc.

Primer coat will stick to them like glue.

Excellent, thanks Robin.
