Hot water / steam is sufficent- I always carry scrapers / steel wool / wire brush , but have not had to use them yet,
Various chemicals available -search on sites who supply equipment.
Always have a degreaser on board - sometimes you will have other issues u may have to address.
Bags for bagging waste etc
