How to clean the inside of an Empty Oil Can

1. Preparation
Wear protective gloves and masks first to prevent oil and detergent from contacting the skin and respiratory tract. Prepare the necessary cleaning tools and materials, such as special oil cleaning agents, brushes, rags, buckets, clean water, etc. If the Empty Oil Can is large or dirty, you can also prepare an oil pump or siphon to extract the residual oil inside.
2. Pour out the residual oil
Place the Empty Oil Can at an angle to allow the remaining oil to flow out naturally and pour it into a special oil storage container. If there is a lot of oil residue, you can use an oil pump or siphon to extract the oil to minimize the amount of oil residue in the barrel.
3. Preliminary wiping
Wipe the inside of the oil barrel with a rag to remove as much oil as possible attached to the barrel wall. For some corners and gaps that are difficult to wipe, you can use a brush for preliminary cleaning to brush off large pieces of oil.
4. Clean with a cleaning agent
According to the degree of contamination of the Empty Oil Can, pour an appropriate amount of special oil cleaning agent into the barrel. Then seal the oil barrel and shake it gently so that the cleaning agent fully covers the barrel wall, reacts chemically with the oil, and dissolves the oil. For stubborn oil stains, let the cleaning agent soak for a longer period of time to enhance the cleaning effect.
5. Thoroughly rinse
Open the oil barrel and rinse the inside with clean water to rinse the dissolved oil and cleaning agent. You can use a bucket or a water pipe to rinse to ensure that all parts of the barrel are rinsed. During the rinsing process, the clean water should be constantly replaced until the water flowing out is clear and oil-free.
6. Drying
Wipe the inside of the oil barrel dry with a clean rag, or place the oil barrel in a well-ventilated place to dry naturally. You can also use a hair dryer or other tools to dry it to avoid residual moisture inside the oil barrel, causing rust or odor.
Pay attention to safety when cleaning the inside of the Empty Oil Can, avoid contact between the cleaning agent and the eyes and skin, and operate in a well-ventilated environment to prevent the volatile gas of the cleaning agent from causing harm to the human body.
