Carb cleaner I think Steve, is a job on my horizon too!

I just use Gunk for this sort of stuff. I'd probably use the foam for this sort of thing. The aerosol liquid is good but you need a lot. The canned liquid is best but you'll need a couple of gallons to get a big enough plastic box filled to clean a UIM with marigolds and a paintbrush.

Good old fashioned paraffin I find is still the best degreaser.

Clearly it had it's drawbacks though!

This is what I used when I done mine. I used brake cleaner and it worked really well with a tooth brush.

Super volatile compounds like brake cleaner work brilliantly but it depends what you're doing.

Stubborn deposits might need a "soak" and on a warm day you'll be forever spraying as it'll evaporate in a blink.

Not to say it doesn't work though, I use it a lot but something to bear in mind if something is really dirty or oily.

Carb cleaner is what I used, one squirt and the dirt has gone.
