Simple Green is powerful but safe, I use it on a ton of everyday tasks from degreasing engine parts, to cleaning garage floor tile to scrubbing whitewall tires.
Try it first as suggested above.

Hi guys, Angela here.
I grew up next to my daddy in the garage as he was an avid collector restorer and would compete in show his liberty corvette ladies and as his proud daughter I've found myself thirty years later still in the garage riding around tools and I'm starting to restore some parts I've been digging up as of late. I have valve covers for both his 64 sing ray and I believe his 53 rag top. I'll have to double check on which cars they're for exactly but i know the 64 f valve covers for sure!! Anyway, is it safe to scrub the old called grease off with either full strength concentrated degreaser and a good ol cloth? I'd like to know if that's heading in a direction success or disaster?
Thanks in advance
guys,
Daddy's Girl

Those things were worthless from a cosmetic point of view. I found out they were goiing to be obsolete so I ordered four sets. When they came in, they were so bad cosmetically, I refused to buy them.
