[C320-list] Winch De-Greaser

[Paul Rickman]

While at Home Depot purchase a pair of Chemical gloves than don't melt. The last ones I had were blue.
These are fairly light, not heavy like some of them.

I just cleaned mine last month. I used "odorless mineral spirits" from 
home depot. It worked great. Contrary to the description, it was not 
odorless. One suggestion, have a couple pairs of rubber gloves handy 
because the cleaner destroys the gloves quickly. I went through one pair 
per winch.
