My 51 WD leaks everything and is all grimed up. I’m ok with messing her up but would like to give her a bath. What is your process for cleanings? Power wash? Scrub with detergent?
Let me know.

Pressure washer, I spray mine with a de-greaser, let 'er soak a few minutes then change nozzles and blast 'er pretty clean. Don't hit the electronic items with hard spray, might create problems. I have hit a few problem areas with oven cleaner, but that is harsh cleaning and if I remember right, removed some of the paint.
