Proper engine degreaser will shift it easily.

Something like Jizer/Carb cleaner

My dad uses Jizer on uber-gunked train and marine engines, so that should do the trick!

Otherwise, try Cillit Bang lol

I used a combination of petrol, acetone and a 18v power drill with a wire wheel in it. Believe it or not all of which i just randomly had knocking around in my dads workshop lol

Use Gunk, let it soak and pressure wash off.

A suede brush will brighten up the alloy nicely if you're not painting it.

if the gbox is still on the car, find the nearest truck workshop & ask them who does their MOT steam cleaning. then pay him to blast it
