    Does anyone have any experience using these ultrasonic cleaners from harbor freight. I was thinking of buying one for cleaning pinball parts.I also have a jukebox and valley cougar dart game I am cleaning up for my game room.Is it good for cleaning small plastic parts also? What solutions are good for the plastics? And what are good for the metal parts? I guess is it worth the money? Thanks

    I bought one today at local harbor freight .I cleaned all the target pieces on my valley cougar dart board and it worked good.I even put my wife's diamond ring in for a few minutes and it made it sparkle like new!

    Quoted from centerflank:

    LOL!
    What cleaners are you using this looks great! I assume you can use different cleaners for plastic and metals

    This is what the ultrasonic can do in a matter of minutes.

    Quoted from t2:

    I asked the the local pinball restorer Joe Donahue of Tennessee and he doesn't recommend using the ultrasonic at all.
