Works well for me.  I even used it to de-grease the engine compartment 
of an old Dodge Power Wagon I was rebuilding.  Took off 25 years of 
baked grease, oil, and dirt  and the paint underneath was as shiny as 
the day it rolled off the production line.
That was the only good paint left on it.  Just sprayed it on, left it 
over night, and washed it off in the morning.  Worked so well I used it 
on some very old radios and it worked for them too.
