Increase the capacity of your ultrasonic tank

To increase the capacity of your cleaning tank purchase a polythene container of the tall, elongated, oval type used to store breakfast cereals, fold a sheet of newspaper as a pad on which to stand the container in the tank, fill the polythene container with your normal cleaning fluid, fill the tank with clean, cold water, immerse items to be cleaned in the cleaning fluid, switch on timer and proceed as normal. You now have the facility to totally immerse larger items without risk of those dreaded tide marks which are virtually impossible to remove from brass items.
