Fairy.

virosol is MUCH better than fairy.....its cuts through grease almost instantly.....(it is a proper degreaser after all)esp if used neat but dont leave it on for long!2 mins tops......
price higher/work harder!

Cif Outdoor BBQ Spray is good.
Smells strong though and it's fluorescent, so don't accidentally spray someone's battered sausage and chaps.

Used fairy it was crap, this has got to be the greasiest chippy I have ever done, even the floor is thick with it, like an ice rink.

Will give the virosol a try first.

Thanks

Fairy is designed for grease.

its nowhere near as good as virosol.....its also good for dried on egg on plastic frames and glass

 fairy washing up liquid is crap...its also very sticky......only cowboy amateurs still use fairy(and the odd old boy tradder) ;D ;D ;D

I never took the job on my oldest lad did, he is "dating" or whatever they call it nowadays, the owners daughter, so I guess we are stuck with it for as long as those 2 are an item.

I can't stretch to a fish but you could have a bite of my sausage.

Depends on which Fairy you use. The blue one with antibacterial agent is excellent.

Now where did I leave my horse?
