Steam Cleaners - Is this any good?
My local Motormania has 3 bar steam cleaners for £30 
Is 3 bar enough to shift grime or not? Talking about cleaning the oven to car stuff like cleaning up a gearbox etc. That kind of work..
The last one I used was the size of a small car and could strip underseal clean off in about 3 seconds

For £30 must just be a pressure washer, no heating in it for that little money, 3 bar aint much for shifting mega grime though, ideal for washing a car and thats about it i should think.

Pressure washers are different as you can't compress water well, hence high pressures with little effort (100bar is the usual for a pressure washer)
Might get one just to see if it works and prove you lot wrong!!
If it does work then fookin bargain

Team HOTHOT!
last time i used a steam cleaner was when mechanicing on the buses - used to steam the engine bay off on each bus when we did services etc etc, decided to steam all the shite off the back of the bus once - big mistake, flaked paint all over
