- This video I talk about the products that I use to clean my watches and movement parts. For best results you need to use a basic ultrasonic cleaner which can be bought for little money.

I find the little wire mesh capsules that you demonstrated to be a bit expensive for my hobby. I found that a common tea infuser used for making single servings of tea to be a totally adequate substitute. They come in all kinds of shapes and sizes. Some with holes and some with the wire mesh. I'm sure you have one in your kitchen right now.
The vid answer lots of my questions. Thanks a million.
Thank you, MB! See you on the Retro Page!
Nice tips on cleaning watch parts and as you said its a nice cheap way when starting out the plastic container in the liquid is a great idea so thanks again.
I just put a dash of white vinegar and a few drops of fairy in and that does a good job.
Nice one Mike , much the same system here. I like the plastic bowl with holes, hard to see small parts in the main cleaner!. Thanks.Adrian 🍀
Thanks
Great vid. Now I can clean the parts that exploded out of the movement when I removed a couple screws! Now let’s see if I can put it back together
Michael another interesting video looking forward to your results with the Perks fluid intersting to know which is the more dangerous Perks or the Renata fluid 🤔
Thanks for sharing this Mike. I just noticed that you mentioned essence of retina instead of renata (twice) :) no matter, your videos inform, teach and inspire. Cheers!
Hi Mike, that's great, I am not confident enough to invest in higher grade tools, maybe down the road!. Keep up the great videos!👍. Adrian
Very interesting and educational video! I have a QUESTION: I HAVE A WATCH BACK THAT I CANT REMOVE, WELL TWO ACTUALLY, ONE SCREW AND A LEAVER, IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN USE TO HELP, TO ME, THEY LOOK RUSTED?
Hi Mike Been following quite a while now, love your work ... Renata is not available in Australia but I will try that website... love being on Facebook with you. .. I know you must have a Lot of watches by now but over the last 20 years I have been doing clocks.. they are bigger than watches so know how you feel. I need a few things now like a moderate size ultra sonic... God bless you and your Georgeous family.. John.
Hi Mike, thanks for the great video and keep up the good work!
Well done!!!
Ronsonal lighter fluid & Essence of Renata are basically the same. Both are shellac safe. Here in the US, a 12 oz of Ronsonal lighter fluid is $4.
Were do you get your watch part from.
maybe I didn't listen correctly, but do you mix the jewelers ultrasonic solution together with water, so dilute the solution with water? Or do you put the watch parts in the solution without dilution?
If you don't already know, one test to ensure your ultrasonic machine is working correctly is to place some aluminum foil in the machine and if you see tiny holes, you know its working correctly. As a hobbyist, an ultra sonic cleaning machine is most economical method however my concern is cavitation pitting on expensive metal parts such as Rolex brands and movements parts and is it possible?
